North America Fire Safety Equipment Market Outlook, 2027

The equipment designed to protect human life/ property from fire accidents by extinguishing the fire is categorized as fire fighting equipment. It can be used by the trained fire-fighters as well as the untrained layman during the fire breaks out or the mechanisms are built within the infrastructure itself.

The recent publication under the title - North America Fire Safety Equipment Market Outlook, 2027 provides an in-depth market analysis of the regional fire safety equipment industry. In the forecast period it is expected to grow at CAGR value of 4.18%. In 2021, the market value of for Fire safety equipment was USD 1.6 Billion. This report covers the detailed insights of the equipment based on product category- Fire Detection, Fire Alarm & Fire Suppression. It also included insights along with the value analysis of the fire safety equipment. The report also mentions the competition of leading companies that are involved in the manufacturing of fire safety equipment.

The leading North America fire safety equipment accounted for more than 35% of the market share in the global market in 2016. The advancement in construction technologies, which gave rise to smart building and residential automation, has been a boon to the fire safety equipment market in the region. The region is now moving towards intelligent fire sensors and detectors which have better efficiency in fire protection.

The market for fire prevention systems is seeing the introduction of cutting-edge technologies including smart buildings, building automation, the Internet of Things (IoT), wireless sensory networks, nanotechnology, and solutions for human-machine interfaces. The efficiency of the fire prevention systems is boosted by intelligent sensors with networking capabilities, as well as sensors and detectors that can readily interact with one another through control units.

Since there is a higher risk of fire danger in the industrial sector owing to the existence of various flammables like oil and gas and operations like mining, fuel, manufacturing, and others, it has become necessary in many different sectors. Industrial is especially in need of fire protection systems. Fire hazard reduction is achieved via fire protection systems, which also provide safety and lessen potential damage and loss. The need for fire protection systems in this region is driven by an increase in fire incidents as well as government regulations for workplace safety.

The strict government norms in the region are the main market driver to the region’s growth. As sky-reaching high rise buildings are a common sight in the region, they are in dire need to safeguard them from fire risk. In line with the global trend, the North American market is also dominated by the fire detection segment which accounted for more than 60% of the market share. Within the fire detection segment, the smoke detector equipment holds clear dominance. However, through the forecasted period, the flame detector segment is expected to be growing with the highest CAGR among the major categories. The lowest contributing segment of fire detection in the region is likely to have market share more than around 60% in the forecast period.

To prevent or minimise loss during a fire danger, integration of fire and safety systems with automated buildings is essential. In the event of a fire, high-level coordination between the active fire system, building-wide communications, and interactive smoke control systems is provided by a fire safety system.

Some of the challenges which has been found are because they include a number of extra parts, particularly the fire detection system, fire prevention systems are more complicated. The entire cost of the safety system goes up as a result, increasing system costs. A trained and knowledgeable specialist must install the system because of its intricacy. Furthermore, these systems' upkeep expenses are a worry. To guarantee the system's stability and operation, these systems require routine maintenance inspections.

With a high population, the US and Canada are the leading countries in the region. In terms of application, the commercial segment leads the regional market with a share of nearly 40%. On the other hand, the industrial segmental application of the fire safety equipment is to register the lowest anticipated growth rate in the forecasted period. In the USA, cooking is the number one cause of house fires. Out of this also, Thanksgiving Day witnesses a peak of cooking fires. Since the year 2013-2017, 49% of the residential fires were caused due to cooking fires.

The USA is the leading market in the region, which held an unbeatable share of 84% in the year 2020. In the very same year, the country recorded an approx. of 1.4 Million fires, which became the reason for the death of 3500 civilians, and a loss of USD 21.9 Billion. The leading companies in the region are now focusing on their expansion by adopting various strategies and are also establishing hold over other regions with mergers and acquisitions.
