3. Contraband Detector Companies - Smiths Group (UK) and OSI Systems (US) are the Key Players

The global contraband detector market size is projected to grow from USD 3.9 billion in 2021 to USD 5.6 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 7.5%. The market was declined  in 2020, mainly due to the impact of COVID-19. The supply chain disruption caused by the pandemic is expected to affect the market significantly. Also, due to lockdown restrictions, companies were not able to source the required labor for their operations due to travel restrictions.

Though the market is impacted in 2020, it is expected to fully recover by 2021. The increasing need for security due to rapid urbanization and rise in terrorist attacks is the key factor driving the growth of the contraband detector market. Also, the growing use of contraband detectors in transportation and retail applications is likely to boost market growth.

The contraband detector market is consolidated, owing to the presence of several players. Key strategies adopted by these players to expand their product portfolio, increase their market share, and expand their presence in the market are deals and product launches. Many market players adopted product launches and deals as their primary business strategies. For instance, in June 2020, Rapiscan System acquired an artificial intelligence platform from Synapse Corporation to enhance its ability to detect threats and prohibited items using advanced deep learning techniques and computer vision. The players adopted a product launch strategy to expand their offerings. For instance, in September 2020, Smiths Detection, a division of Smiths Group PLC, announced its newest X-Ray inspection system HI-SCAN 5030 C, which is specifically designed for versatile commercial security operations. The compact size and lightweight features of the solution enable it to seamlessly fit into checkpoints and mailrooms.
