Sales Analysis of Physical Access Control Systems (2017-2021) Vs. Market Predictions (2022-2032)

PACS is designed to restrict and allow physical entry to a particular area or building. Unlike traditional barriers such as fences and strategic landscaping, PACS restricts a person from entering a restricted area without having the proper credentials.

PACS is useful where a higher level of security is required, as the product protects from vandalism, theft, and trespassing in a specific area. The outlook for the PACS market is bullish as the product is associated with IP networking. Day by day, as technology is getting advanced, there is a rising need for enhanced security systems to protect confidential information. As per this survey by Fact.MR, 45% of people working in an organization agreed access control systems play a key role in protecting the area from infringement and theft.

Due to COVID-19 when lockdowns happened, the demand for biometric PACS went down as offices were closed. However, after things opened up, offices started demanding touchless solutions that could be installed in the organization to reduce physical contact, creating a high demand for face recognition, voice recognition, and iris recognition solutions.

An additional revenue generation model for PACS will be through cloud computing or edge computing, which will also allow data gathering, analysis, and storage model. The data that will be gathered from smart door locks and the Internet of Things will be stored, screened, and processed, and can be applied to the near edge of the network. Also, by offering integrated software and services, market participants can capture a significant market share.

  • Short Term (2022 2025): Growing number of smart devices and high Internet penetration market to positively impact PACS market growth.
  • Medium Term (2025-2028): North America and Europe are expected to witness higher PACS demand due to increased penetration of smart gadgets in homes and offices.
  • Long Term (2028-2032): Integration of advanced technologies such as touchless solutions and mobile-based access control will open up new opportunities for industry players.

The global market for PACS expanded at a CAGR of 6% from 2017 to 2021. Fact.MR, which is a market research and competitive intelligence provider, says that the market will exhibit high-value growth at 10.3% CAGR through 2032.

Market share analysis of PACS based on solution and region. Under the solution segment, the service-based sub-segment leads with 53.2% market share in 2022.

What’s Driving High Demand for Physical Access Control Systems across Regions?

“Increasing Sales of Semiconductor Products Creating Traction for PACS”

During quarter 2 of 2022, worldwide sales of semiconductor products totaled US$ 152.2 billion, with recorded 13.3% growth, as per the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) Organization. The U.S. is the leading country for the sales of semiconductors owing to rapid technological advancements.

With the integration of advanced technology in end-use industries, semiconductor technology has also changed. Companies’ expenses have seen a drastic rise in the smooth operation of the supply chain across regions. The semiconductor industry is expected to show a positive response in the market, which will also be responsible for the growth of PACS in the future. To this, the semiconductor industry will act as a driver for the growth of the physical access control system market.

“Surging Need for Privacy in Retail & Corporate Sectors”

The increasing need to secure confidential information and expensive products in the retail and corporate sectors is the key reason driving the demand for physical access control systems such as biometrics, keypad-based PACS, and others.

The retail sector encompasses shopping malls, modern trade channels such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, and convinces stores, wherein, higher adoption of PACS is in progress. Also, to enhance security checks and avoid theft, end users in the retail sector are inclining towards the installation of PACS across their stores and facilities.

In 2021, the global retail sale sector witnessed growth of around 13% after bouncing back from pandemic to pre-pandemic levels. Owing to this, demand for PACS is expected to rise across the retail and other corporate sectors at 7.4% CAGR over the forecast period.

How Can PACS Market Growth Be Hampered to Some Extent?

“High Cost of Manufacturing PACS”

Despite PACS being an integral part of the day-to-day operations of the corporate and retail sectors, the high cost of installation and maintenance of the product restricts its usage for many enterprises. Over 40% of customers responded as the cost being the primary reason for not installing PACS.

The high cost associated with the product, especially for biometrics, smart card-enabled access systems, and card-enabled access control are hampering the demand growth for PACS. However, manufacturers are constantly making their efforts to reduce these costs and increase the efficiency of their products.

Why is Retail and Other Corporate a Popular Driver for PACS?

Numerous businesses have modified their work environments and practices as a result of the business environment's rapid changes. Information gathering and sharing are now more convenient than ever before thanks to remote work and mobile devices. Anyone can easily hack a user ID and password. This is why security measures such as multifactor authentication (MFA), PIN and password, biometrics, etc., were developed to deal with the problem of hacking.

Daily collaboration results in accident access problems. Too many documents have public links, former vendors still have access to documents they shouldn't, and documents are shared with personal accounts.

Owing to these factors, the retail & other commercial sub-segment is predicted to expand 1.8X over the next ten years.
