위험구역용 장비 시장 예측(-2032년) : 제품별, 접속성, 최종사용자별, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Hazardous Area Equipment Market is accounted for $12.27 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $21.17 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period. Hazardous area equipment refers to specialized electrical and mechanical devices designed for safe operation in environments where flammable gases, vapors, dust, or fibers may be present, creating a risk of explosion or fire. These fields, which are frequently found in sectors like mining, oil and gas, chemical processing, and pharmaceuticals, call for equipment that conforms to strict safety regulations like ATEX, IECEx, or UL. Gas detection systems, flameproof lighting, intrinsically safe devices, and explosion-proof enclosures are examples of equipment used in hazardous areas. Moreover, operational safety and regulatory compliance are ensured by their design, which makes sure they either contain potential ignition sources or cannot ignite a hazardous atmosphere.

According to the U.S. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), key standards like NFPA 497 (for flammable gases/vapors) and NFPA 499 (for combustible dusts) provide essential guidelines for classifying hazardous zones and defining requirements for electrical equipment used in those areas.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing exploration activities for oil and gas

The growing demand for energy around the world, particularly from developing nations, has greatly increased oil and gas exploration and production. This sector works in hazardous settings like refineries, onshore rigs, and offshore platforms, where flammable gases and vapors present a continual risk of explosion. Equipment such as motors, control panels, and inherently safe and explosion-proof lighting systems are becoming more and more necessary in order to reduce these risks. Additionally, the need for strong hazardous area solutions that guarantee both safety and operational continuity in harsh circumstances is growing as governments and energy companies invest in deeper and more remote extraction zones.

Restraint:

Expensive equipment for hazardous areas

The high cost of hazardous area equipment is one of the biggest barriers to market expansion. Strict international standards like ATEX, IECEx, and UL require these devices to pass extensive testing, certification, and engineering. Because of this, their cost is significantly higher than that of typical industrial equipment. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) may find it difficult to set aside the required funds for compliant equipment, particularly in emerging economies. Furthermore, in addition to the initial purchase price, the total cost of ownership also includes installation, routine maintenance, inspections, and certification renewals.

Opportunity:

Transition to a hydrogen economy and clean energy

A new set of opportunities and challenges is brought about by the global transition to clean energy sources like hydrogen, biofuels, and green chemicals. Because it is extremely flammable, hydrogen in particular needs to be handled, stored, and processed with specialized equipment, frequently in areas designated as hazardous. The need for certified hazardous area equipment such as pressure switches, gas sensors, valves, and enclosures will increase as nations invest in hydrogen infrastructure, including production facilities and refueling stations. Moreover, this change is increasing the addressable market by creating new uses for explosion-protected equipment in energy storage, renewable energy integration, and sustainable fuel production.

Threat:

Market saturation and fierce price competition

The market for hazardous area equipment is becoming more competitive as it ages, especially in developed areas like Western Europe and North America, where both new and established players are becoming more prevalent. Particularly in commoditized product categories like lighting systems and explosion-proof enclosures, this fierce competition has resulted in price pressure. Although lower prices benefit consumers, manufacturers' profit margins are squeezed; this restricts their capacity to spend on R&D, innovation, and post-purchase services. Furthermore, smaller businesses may find it difficult to hold onto market share as big end users combine suppliers to cut costs, which could force them out of business or induce mergers and acquisitions.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic affected the market for hazardous area equipment in a variety of ways. The market was severely disrupted in its early phases by manufacturing delays, global supply chain failures, and the suspension of industrial and construction projects in important industries like mining, chemicals, and oil and gas. New equipment deployments and certifications were delayed as a result of lockdowns and labour shortages that further hampered installation and maintenance operations. But there was a renewed emphasis on workplace safety, automation, and remote monitoring in dangerous areas as industries progressively resumed operations under more stringent safety and monitoring procedures.

The wired connectivity segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The wired connectivity segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. Its dominance is ascribed to its dependability, signal stability, and immunity to interference in hazardous industrial settings like mining, oil and gas, and chemical processing. Because of their established safety performance and adherence to international standards like ATEX and IECEx, wired systems-including Ethernet and fieldbus-are frequently used to connect sensors, controllers, and monitoring equipment in hazardous zones. Moreover, wired networks are the recommended option for crucial operations because they are less vulnerable to signal deterioration brought on by physical barriers or electromagnetic interference than wireless solutions.

The pharmaceutical segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the pharmaceutical segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. because settings involving volatile chemicals and solvents are increasingly in need of equipment that is both intrinsically safe and explosion-proof. As the demand for biologics, vaccines, and specialty medications increases globally, production facilities are growing and implementing cutting-edge safety measures. Cleanrooms, production lines, and quality labs are investing in certified equipment due to regulatory compliance with cGMP, ATEX, and IECEx standards. Furthermore, driving the need for superior electrical and electronic safety equipment is the industry's move toward automation, real-time monitoring, and contamination control in hazardous areas.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share, propelled by its highly regulated industrial environment, sophisticated adoption of technology, and robust presence of important industries like mining, chemicals, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals. Strict adherence to safety regulations such as NEC, OSHA, and UL, which require the use of certified explosion-proof and intrinsically safe equipment in hazardous areas, benefits the area. Because of continuous investments in offshore drilling, shale gas extraction, and industrial automation, the US leads the world in this regard. Moreover, North America's market dominance is reinforced by the existence of significant market players and robust infrastructure.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR, driven by accelerating urbanization, industrialization, and rising investments in vital industries like power generation, chemicals, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals. Stricter regulatory compliance, infrastructure modernization, and a greater emphasis on worker safety are all occurring in nations like China, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam. The need for equipment that is intrinsically safe and explosion-proof is also being increased by the growth of multinational manufacturing facilities in the area and an increase in foreign direct investment. Additionally, government-sponsored industrial safety initiatives and the drive toward automation are driving market expansion throughout Asia-Pacific.
