Market Overview:
The global backscatter x-ray devices market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing use of backscatter x-ray devices for security purposes, such as customs and border protection, law enforcement, airport security, and military and defense applications. Additionally, the growing demand for backscatter x-ray devices from emerging economies is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, factors such as high installation and maintenance costs are restraining the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Backscatter x-ray devices are imaging devices that use low-energy x-rays to create images of the interior of an object. The backscattered radiation is collected and displayed as an image on a monitor. Backscatter x-ray devices are used to visualize objects hidden from view or located inside other objects.
Handheld:
Handheld X-ray devices are used for backscatter imaging. Backscatter is the term used for the reflected X-rays that bounce off objects and return to the source. Handheld x-ray devices use this effect to create an image of any opaque object including people, luggage, packages or vehicles without their knowledge by using a low dose of radiation.
Non-handheld:
Non-handheld backscatter x-ray devices are those that are fixed and stationary, unlike handheld scanners which can be used for backscatter x-ray device is a non-portable system. It's main components include X-Ray source, high voltage transformer (HVAC), power supply and control console.
Application Insights:
The other application segment includes industrial and healthcare applications. The usage of backscatter devices in the airport has increased significantly over the past few years. This is attributed to a rise in air travelers and increase in security concerns at airports across the world. Backscatter x-ray devices are used not only for scanning but also for pat downs, baggage checks, and canine unit patrols among others. The custom's & border protection application segment accounted for a major share of revenue as well as units market owing to an increase in patrolling activities at international borders coupled with rising cross-border crime rates such as human trafficking, drug smuggling, people smuggling etc., which requires enhanced security measures at airports globally.
The military & defense application is expected to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period due to increasing investments by countries such as China.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global backscatter x-ray devices market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of major players, technological advancements, and stringent regulations imposed by governments on travelers' privacy. For instance, according to a study conducted by Migrant Justice and American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), every year between 2008 and 2012 more than 100 million people pass through airport security checkpoints across the U.S., which amounts to nearly three checks per person traveling! Such high number of screenings leads to increased use of backscatter x-ray devices for screening purposes as they reduce waiting time at airports thus boosting product demand in North America region.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing government initiatives for passenger safety coupled with rising concerns regarding terrorism at airports across countries such as India, China, Japan etc., thereby driving regional demand for backscatter x-ray devices market.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for security and safety measures in airports, railway stations, and other transportation hubs
- Growing awareness about the benefits of backscatter X-ray devices among government agencies and private organizations
- Rising number of terrorist threats and incidents across the world
- Proliferation of illegal weapons and explosives trafficking activities
- Technological advancements in backscatter X-ray devices that offer enhanced performance
