Asia Pacific Airport Runway FOD Detection Systems Market

At 7.9% CAGR, Asia Pacific Airport Runway FOD Detection Systems Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 91.05 Million by 2031, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Asia Pacific airport runway FOD detection systems market was valued at US$ 49.43 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 91.05 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 7.9% from 2023 to 2031. Rigorous government regulations regarding aircraft safety and rising popularity of smart airports are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Asia Pacific airport runway FOD detection systems market growth.

The presence of FOD (Foreign Object Debris) is a persistent concern at the airports. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) showcased guidelines for the manufacturing and procurement of airport runway foreign object debris (FOD) detection systems. All customers and producers must stand by the norms set by the FAA for obtaining and manufacturing FOD detection systems. Airlines, airports, and the General Aviation community have taken the essential steps to minimize FOD by engaging in effective FOD management programs, as per AC 150/5210-24. FAA Foreign Object Debris Program circulars such as AC 150/5210-24, Airport Foreign Object Debris (FOD) Management, describes FOD as any article, live or not, located in an unsuitable location in the airport environment that can harm airport or air carrier personnel and damage aircraft. FOD-related safety hazards can lead to rupturing of aircraft tires, damage to aircraft engines, and injuries to flight occupants. Such damages force the aerospace industry to accept the expenditure of ~US$ 4 billion every year. According to the FAA, a FOD detection system is expected to identify and locate FOD items in the Air Operations Area (AOA). In addition, the detection systems must alert the users regarding the detection of FOD; moreover, they are required to work in coexistence with aircraft communication, airport navigation, and surveillance systems without any interference. Thus, rigorous government regulations regarding aircraft safety drive the airport runway FOD detection systems market.

On the contrary, high cost of development and maintenance of FOD detection systems hampers the growth of Asia Pacific airport runway FOD detection systems market.
