Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear & Explosives (CBRNE) Detection Equipment Market - Forecast(2023 - 2028)

The Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear & Explosives (CBRNE) Detection Equipment market is classified on the basis of detection, portability type, system, end user, and geographical regions. Due to increased security, safety and law enforcements within public and private places, people are becoming more secure and conscious about critical situations and incidents. This has led to a reduction in terrorism and, in turn, boosted the growth of the CBRNE detection equipment market. The CBRNE Detection Equipment Market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.89% during the forecast period 2018–2023. The Middle East and Africa regions are forecast to be the fastest growing markets during the forecast period 2018–2023. The regions are estimated to grow at a combined CAGR of 6.73%, which can be mainly attributed to the domestic disturbances in these regions over the past few years. The increase in concern to protect civilian lives, which includes preventive measure to safeguard them from hazardous items and threats from terrorist organizations, is compelling state governments to invest in CBRN detection equipment.  

CBRNE Detection Equipment has the capability to detect CBRNE materials. This equipment has high specifications and features, such as high range detection system with high frequency catcher, which comes under area monitoring. CBRNE detection equipment have a wide range of as applications in defense, academic and research, commercial and logistics security, food and agriculture, environmental, quality control, and various other sectors.

Food and Agriculture has the highest growth rate in terms of usage of CBRNE detection equipment among the end users. The CBRNE detection equipment in food and agriculture is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 6.32% during the forecast period 2018–2023 and reach $317.91m by 2023.  

Chemical detection equipment has the potential to detect chemical reagents in the environment. The increase in threat from chemical warfare agents, industrial pollutants in water bodies, and toxic leakage or accidents in industries are driving the demand for chemical detectors. Chemical detectors are also used for drug identification in the pharmaceutical industry and for narcotics monitoring. They act as pre-alarming systems to minimize the loss of lives and trigger the safety measures. 

Biological detection systems should have high sensitivity to detect very small amounts of biological agents, and should be able to distinguish biological agents. Training the user to use CBRNE detection equipment is one of the challenges in the CBRNE equipment market. The purpose of the first responders or military is to detect the threat and protect using these CBRNE equipment. Proper training has to be given to the end users by the manufacturers or distributors
