Barrier Systems Global Market Report 2024

The barrier systems market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $19.4 billion in 2023 to $20.74 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors including the implementation of road safety regulations, significant developments in infrastructure, an increase in automotive accidents prompting safety measures, heightened attention to work zone safety, greater public awareness regarding road safety, and the enforcement of stringent safety standards.

The barrier systems market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $26.24 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. Anticipated growth in the forecasted period can be linked to several key drivers, including the integration of smart transportation systems, heightened emphasis on sustainable infrastructure, the development of urban mobility solutions, increased resilience in the face of climate change, and a rising demand for high-performance barrier solutions.

The escalation in road accidents is poised to drive the growth of the barrier systems market. These accidents involve vehicle crashes resulting in injuries or fatalities and underscore the necessity for systems that prevent vehicles from leaving the road and encountering roadside hazards. Barrier systems serve a critical role in controlling vehicle speeds, managing traffic lanes, and guiding vehicles away from potential dangers. Statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in August 2022 revealed a 7% increase in fatalities from traffic accidents in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, emphasizing the urgency for effective barrier systems to address escalating road accidents.

The mounting issue of traffic congestion is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the barrier systems market. Traffic congestion, arising from an overload of vehicles on road networks, leads to extended travel times and reduced transportation efficiency. Barrier systems play a pivotal role in managing traffic flow, promoting safety, and averting situations that exacerbate traffic jams. INRIX reported in January 2023 that the average American driver experienced 51 hours of congestion, marking a 15-hour increase from 2021, further emphasizing the role of barrier systems in addressing traffic challenges and maintaining roadway safety amidst rising congestion levels.

Innovations in product offerings stand as a prominent trend driving growth within the barrier systems market. Major industry players focus on developing innovative products to maintain their market presence. For instance, Seton UK introduced EasyExtend, a modular retractable barrier system in May 2022, featuring a larger span than comparable systems, enhancing efficiency in industrial and outdoor settings. With its unique storage design for barrier components, EasyExtend facilitates quick assembly during hazards and streamlined storage in compact stacks, catering to space-saving requirements.

Strategic partnerships form a pivotal approach adopted by major companies in the barrier systems market to implement cutting-edge lidar-based security and safety systems on an international scale. These partnerships leverage collaborative strengths and resources for mutual benefit and success. Cepton Inc. partnered with Barrier1 Systems in March 2021, integrating Cepton's Helius Smart Lidar System into Barrier1's physical barrier systems. This collaboration aims to introduce next-generation safety and intrusion detection applications, utilizing intelligent lidar solutions. Cepton's lidar technology, integrated with Vista-P lidar sensors and advanced perception software, facilitates real-time 3D object detection, classification, tracking, and velocity measurement. This collaborative effort underscores the efficacy of lidar technology in enhancing security and safety across various public and private sectors, underscoring its adaptability and impact on perimeter security systems offered by Barrier1 Systems.

In July 2021, the Perimeter Protection Group (PPG), a prominent German supplier specializing in vehicle barriers, completed the acquisition of Avon Barrier, an esteemed UK-based provider of security solutions. This strategic acquisition, executed for an undisclosed sum, aims to synergize the strengths of both entities, expanding their collective barrier solutions. The objective is to fortify and diversify their offerings, empowering them to better serve customers on a global scale. Avon Barrier brings its expertise in security barriers, road blockers, security bollards, and sliding automatic gates to complement PPG's existing portfolio, enhancing their combined capabilities in the security solutions domain.
