The MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market is expected to grow from US$ 8.37 million in 2019 to US$ 10.15 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 2.5 % from 2020 to 2027.



The South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and UAE are major economies in MEA. Growth of AI-based FOD detection systems and UAV is expected to accelerate the MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market. The growing adoption of advanced technologies such as Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), Cloud, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) by the aerospace & defense industry is expected to drive the growth of the MEA airport runway FOD systems market in the coming years. The adoption of these technologies enables organizations to streamline the manufacturing of components, ensure enhanced safety of the aircraft and passengers, and process large volumes of data. Company across MEA such as ArgosAI offers A-FOD that confers features such as enhanced real-time detection of FOD, analysis tools for managing runways, and alarm generation systems; it is an AI-based automated airport runway FOD detection system with low maintenance requirements. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) by the military personnel for applications such as surveillance, combat operations, transportation and delivery, and battle damage management is also expected to drive the growth of the MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market

Further, in case of COVID-19, Iran is the hardest-hit country in MEA. The aviation industry faced tremendous challenged in 2020 due to the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 across the MEA region. The eruption of COVID-19 in MEA region has led the governments to impose stringent rules and regulations to contain the virus. Air travel ban was one of the strict rules imposed by the governments across the MEA during the first two quarters Q1 and Q2. This led the aviation industry to halt the operations and experience the lowest revenue generation during the period. The airport sector also witnessed stiff decline in passenger count, aircraft movement, and revenue generation. The substantial loss in revenues resulted in limited procurement of technologies by the airport authorities and airport managements. This factor showcased fall in demand for FOD detection systems, which hampered the growth of MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market. Further, the MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market is also affected by the disruption in the supply chain. Pertaining to the closure of borders of countries, the supply chain of several components and parts have been disturbed. The demand for advanced FOD detection systems has weakened over the past couple of months in MEA countries. This has resulted in a loss of business among the airport runway FOD detection system manufacturers offering their products to commercial airports and military airports. However, there were some positivity in the market as, Hammad International Airport in Doha procured FOD detection system from Israeli manufacturer XSight Systems for its newly constructed runway.

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market. The MEA airport runway FOD detection systems market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.

  • 3.3 Company Profile:

The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.

  • 3.4 Developing Base Number:

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.

  1. Data Triangulation and Final Review:

The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.

We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.

Your data will never be shared with third parties, however, we may send you information from time to time about our products that may be of interest to you. By submitting your details, you agree to be contacted by us. You may contact us at any time to opt-out.
