Global Cargo Scanning Equipment Market is valued approximately at USD 3.5 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a growth rate of more than 6.5% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Cargo Scanning Equipment refers to a variety of specialized devices and systems designed for the inspection and screening of cargo, freight, or containers to ensure compliance with security and safety regulations. These technologies play a crucial role in transportation and logistics, particularly in international trade and border security. The Cargo Scanning Equipment market is expanding because of factors such as growing demand of e-commerce logistics and rising number of global trades. As a result, the demand of Cargo Scanning Equipment has progressively increased in the international market during the forecast period 2023-2030.
E-commerce platforms handle a large volume of shipment on a daily basis, involving a wide range of products. As the volume of shipment increases, there is a greater need for efficient and automated cargo scanning to ensure the security and safety of the transported goods. According to Statista, in 2021, the global e-commerce logistics market exceeded a valuation of USD 154.53 billion and projected e-commerce logistics market is anticipated to surge up to USD 827.16 billion. Another important factor driving the Cargo Scanning Equipment market is increasing number of global trades. The growth in the number of global trades often leads to the introduction of more stringent regulations and compliance standards. Cargo Scanning Equipment is essential for businesses to comply with these regulations, as it helps in screening shipment for illegal or prohibited items. This creates a demand for advanced scanning technologies to meet evolving regulatory requirements. In addition, as per Statista, in 2020, the total value of global exports reached approximately USD 22.34 trillion and reached up to USD 24.9 trillion in 2022. Moreover, rising focus on preventing drug trafficking and advancement in scanning technologies is anticipated to create a lucrative growth opportunity for the market over the forecast period. However, high equipment costs and operational challenges are going to impede overall market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Cargo Scanning Equipment Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 with largest market share owing to the increase in the drug trafficking throughout United States. The surge in drug trafficking necessitates more sophisticated and sensitive scanning equipment to detect concealed substances within cargo shipment. Cargo Scanning Equipment, including X-ray scanners and other detection technologies, plays a pivotal role in identifying hidden drugs and illicit substances. The region’s dominant performance is anticipated to propel the overall demand of Cargo Scanning Equipment. Furthermore, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a fastest growth rate during the forecast period, owing to factors such as increasing number of trade activities in the region.
