Global Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market Size Study & Forecast, by Systems Type (Fixed Systems, Portable Systems) by Technology (X-ray Screening, Computed Tomography) and Application, and Regional Forecasts 2025-2035
The Global Airport Passenger Screening Systems Market is valued at approximately USD 2.59 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand at a robust CAGR of 7.90% over the forecast period 2025-2035. Airport passenger screening systems are critical components of modern aviation security infrastructure, designed to ensure the safety of passengers and aviation personnel while maintaining efficient operational throughput. These systems leverage advanced technologies such as X-ray scanning and computed tomography (CT) to detect prohibited items, explosives, and other security threats. The market growth is primarily driven by heightened global security concerns, increasing passenger traffic, and continuous investment in airport infrastructure and smart security technologies.
The surge in air travel and the increasing frequency of security incidents worldwide have necessitated the adoption of sophisticated passenger screening systems. Airports are focusing on upgrading legacy screening systems with high-precision technologies to minimize false alarms and reduce wait times, thereby enhancing passenger experience. Additionally, the integration of portable screening systems provides flexibility for temporary checkpoints and emergency scenarios. Despite significant growth opportunities, stringent regulatory compliance and high capital investment requirements may pose challenges to market expansion across certain regions.

Fixed systems are expected to dominate the market due to their comprehensive security coverage, high throughput capabilities, and reliability in processing large volumes of passengers at major international airports. The fixed screening segment remains integral to airport security infrastructure, offering advanced detection features and integration with other airport security systems. Meanwhile, portable screening systems are gaining traction in niche applications such as temporary or remote screening, demonstrating flexibility and rapid deployment potential for critical events or emergencies.
From a revenue perspective, computed tomography (CT) technology currently leads market earnings due to its superior threat detection capabilities and higher adoption in premium and international airports. CT-based screening systems provide detailed 3D imaging that enhances detection accuracy while reducing false positives, making it a preferred choice for large-scale deployments. In contrast, X-ray screening systems maintain widespread coverage due to cost-effectiveness and ease of integration, offering a balanced revenue contribution across global markets.
North America accounts for the largest market share, supported by well-funded airport security programs, established aviation infrastructure, and regulatory mandates for enhanced passenger safety. Europe demonstrates steady growth driven by airport modernization projects and stringent aviation security protocols. Asia Pacific is poised to be the fastest-growing region during 2025-2035, propelled by rising air traffic, new airport constructions, and increasing investment in smart screening solutions in countries such as China and India. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are expected to experience moderate growth due to airport expansion initiatives and adoption of next-generation screening technologies.
