The Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) Segment Holds a Significant Share in the Global Air Cargo Security Screening Industry

The explosive trace detection (ETD) segment based on system accounts for a significant share in the market owing to the growing demand for ETD instruments. This can be attributed to the simplicity of these instruments. ETD instruments are inexpensive compared to costly imaging systems and can be used alone as the primary means of explosives or narcotics detection in combination with other detection techniques for alarm resolution, handling overflow, and relieving bottlenecks during peak periods of the screening activity. Furthermore, the increasing number of trained professionals having adequate knowledge of ETD instruments is likely to garner the market in the forecast period.

North America Accounts for a Significant Share in the Air Cargo Security Screening Industry

The air cargo security screening industry in North America is driven by the presence of advanced air cargo screening technology, coupled with stringent security regulations in countries like the United States of America and Canada. The increasing government efforts to secure citizens from potential threats such as explosives or drugs are supporting the market. In addition to this, a significant increase in the transportation of heavy goods across the region is expected to further aid the market growth.
