According to the National Fire Protection Association, there have been more than 400,000 house fire cases reported in the United States every year. These fire incidents bring dreadful culture to the people. The scenarios remain the same not just in the United States but across the world.
In 2021, a fire department responded to a fire on average every 23 seconds in the United States, according to the National Fire Protection Association. A home fire was reported every 89 seconds, a home fire death occurred every three hours and 24 minutes, and a home fire injury occurred every 46 minutes.
Moreover, several wildfire fire incidents are being reported across the world where fire incidents have destroyed the lives and property of people. For instance:
According to The National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) 58733 wildfires occurred in the United States and 121.6 acres burned per fire in 2021. Thus the rising incidences of wildfires has prompted the government in United States to procure firefighting equipment including fire trucks to bolster their fire fighting preparedness.
Furthermore, the governments are closely examining the reasons behind urban fire incidences to avoid disasters like the Mundka fire accident in New Delhi, India which left 27 people dead and Grenfell Tower fire incident in London, United Kingdom in which 72 people died. This incidences mainly happened due to noncompliance action pulled by hundreds of commercial and institutional buildings, including hospitals, factories, and even schools, which are operating without a fire and safety certificates. These things further make thousands of people vulnerable and help raise the intensity of fire incidents.
An increasing number of high-rise buildings are also leading local municipalities to upgrade their existing fleet of fire fighting equipment, including trucks. For instance
China is the largest Asian market for fire trucks. The country has introduced trade barriers in the wake of economic conflict with the United States, which tends to increase the overall cost and vehicle imports and has been subjected to approval by the ministry of finance. Rigorous business constraints and growing economic and political conflicts have resulted in the restraint of the development of international manufacturers while insulating the revenue bars of China-based companies.
However, India has witnessed a key increase in the demand for fire trucks over the past years, owing to the high urbanization the country is undergoing. Industries from segments like oil refineries, steel plants, industrial corporations, and thermal power generation plants have been demanding industrial-grade fire trucks with special emphasis on foam trucks.
The demand is primarily noticeable from tier 1 and tier 2 cities of the country, which has been scrutinized by the fire truck manufacturers and further collaborated and partnered to capitalize on this pain point; moreover, with increasing urbanization, growing security awareness, and new product launches, further demand is expected to drive the market. For instance
North America's growth is primarily driven by the growing requirement for advanced safety infrastructure in residential buildings and commercial complexes, which is expected to augment the market demand.
The fire truck market in Europe, the Middle East and Africa is characterized primarily by the consumption of applications, such as enterprises, industries, airports, and the military, providing new opportunities for key players to expand in the market.
Some of the major players dominating the global market are Rosenbauer Group, REV Group Inc., Magirus, Oshkosh Corporation, and Morita Holdings Corporation. Key players are engaging in mergers and acquisitions and launching new products to secure their market position and stay ahead of the market curve. For instance,
