According to a new market research study of “Middle East and Africa Airport X-Ray Security Screening System Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis by Component, Type, and Country.” The Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system is expected to grow from US$ 177.29 million in 2021 to US$ 227.19 million by 2028; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 3.6% from 2021 to 2028. The report highlights trends prevailing in the Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system market and the factors driving market along with those that act as hindrances.

The air passenger count exponentially increased till the COVID-19 decimated the entire demand for air travel in 2020. Aviation industry stakeholders, such as aircraft manufacturers, airlines, airports, and others, experienced tremendous demand for their services. According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), 4.5 billion passengers travelled by air in 2019, which was 3.6% higher than in 2018. The rise in air passengers till 2019 was one of the key parameters for airport management to induct and deploy advanced baggage screening solutions and passenger screening solutions, as airports and air travel have been key targets for various terrorist activities over the years. Due to this, many airport management have procured technologically enhanced screening systems.

During the COVID-19 outbreak, the aviation industry witnessed significant interruptions. However, as the aviation industry re-surfaced and began its operations in late 2020, the demand for air travel has begun rising. According to the International Air Transport Administration (IATA), the global air passenger traffic is expected to recover by 88% in 2022 and is anticipated to surpass 2019 levels by 2023. Thus, with the growing volumes of passengers and implementation of safety measures to deter the spread of the COVID-19 again, governments and airport management are increasingly emphasizing the procurement of no contact passenger screening systems. This is currently generating substantial demand for people screening solutions.

Countries such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE have many airports in their territories, and thus hold huge potential for x-ray security screening system providers. In the UAE, Abu Dhabi canceled a US$ 3 billion airport terminal contract during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in Oman, the work of a delayed project at Muscat International Airport has now resumed. The recommencement of such projects will boost the deployment of the x-ray security screening systems in the coming years.

Based on component, the Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system market is segmented into solutions and services. Based on type, the Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system is segmented into baggage screening and people screening. Geographically, the Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system market is sub-segmented into Saudi Arabia, UAE, South Africa and Rest of MEA.

Nuctech Company Limited, OSI Systems, Inc, Leidos, Astrophysics Inc., VOTI Detection Inc., Smiths Detection Group Ltd. and Pexray Oy are among the leading companies operating in the Middle East and Africa airport x-ray security screening system market.
