Europe Security Screening Market Size
Including Growth Factors, Applications, Regional Analysis 2027

Security Screening Market in Europe is expected to grow from US$ 1.51 Bn in 2018 to US$ 2.59 Bn by the year 2027 with a CAGR of 5.8% from the year 2019 to 2027.

The security screening market is experiencing significant growth driven by:

• Increased air passenger traffic: Leading to expansion of airport infrastructure and heightened security needs.
• Terrorist threats: Emphasizing the necessity for robust security measures.
• Urban infrastructure development: Further fueling demand for comprehensive security solutions.

However, the market faces challenges:

• Health concerns regarding X-ray radiation: Public apprehension about potential health risks, particularly cancer, from full-body X-ray scanners. This has led to restrictions and bans, such as the European Union's prohibition of X-ray body scanners in airports.
• Security sector discrepancies: Inconsistencies and vulnerabilities within security systems hindering effective implementation.

The health concerns surrounding X-ray scanners have prompted the adoption of alternative technologies, such as millimeter-wave scanners, which do not emit harmful radiation. This shift highlights the market's adaptation to address safety concerns while maintaining security effectiveness.
