Puffer Machines Market

Global Puffer Machines Market: Overview

Extensively enriching security awareness and rapidly emerging technological innovations for security purposes has led to the high growth of puffer machines market. A puffer machine, also termed as trace portal machine, is a new technology security device that aims to detect explosive and drugs at high sensitive areas like airport security screening, border crossing etc. Due to the decreasing efficiency of traditional X-ray machines, puffer machines are being used extensively as a secondary or substitute screening device for more efficient results.

Puffer machines has applications in areas such as military and aerospace security check, nuclear plants screening, border checks, commercial places and airport security screening. Due to more sensitivity of Mass Spectrometry (MS) technology based puffer machines than Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) technology, MS technology will experience high growth in the puffer machines market during the forecast period. Innovations, such as less power consumption, less space requirement and easy maintenance are some of the key trends driving the growth of the puffer machines market. The global market for puffer machines consists of a handful of manufacturers and is driven by global players.

Global Puffer Machines Market: Dynamics

A primary factor driving the puffer machines market is the rapid growth of security equipment in developing regions. Since puffer machines provides increased efficiency security results, puffer machines aims to be an alternate security equipment during the forecast period. Increasing terrorism and growing drug trafficking has led to the high growth in the puffer machines market for detecting explosives like RDX, TNT and drugs like Marijuana, cocaine etc. Attributing to the rapidly increasing technological innovations of airports and use of high efficiency screening devices in the developing regions, the puffer machines have witnessed high growth in the market.

Increasing security awareness by the government for providing high screening techniques in areas like nuclear plants, military and defence has aimed to provide high growth to the puffer machines market. High availability of alternatives for the puffer machines has led to the decreasing growth of the puffer machines market. Since, puffer machines are not affordable due to high cost will hinder the growth of the market.

Global Puffer Machines market: Regional Overview

Developed economies of North America and Europe have prominent puffer machine manufacturers with high investment capabilities with significant demand for puffer machines. Also, there is an increasing awareness of security in North America and Europe, which will provide increased opportunities for the puffer machines market. Rapidly increasing airports in the countries of Latin America and MEA will serve a majority of the puffer machines demand in the region. North America will experience high growth for mass-spectrometry-technology-based puffer machines during the forecast period. Increasing urbanization, growing demand for highly efficient security machines will provide rapid growth for puffer machines during the forecast period.

Therefore, North America & Europe are expected to account for a larger market size for puffer machines market while the Asia Pacific is pegged to experience higher growth in the puffer machines market during the forecast period. Countries, such as China and Japan are manufacturing puffer machines at lower costs, inventing new trends and driving technology changes. Thus, these countries are expected to encourage the growth of the market. India, being in the top list of largest military base will find enormous use of puffer machines in the near future.
