Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) are specialized control systems crafted to automatically react to potentially hazardous or perilous situations within industrial processes. These systems are deployed to mitigate the risk of accidents, safeguard personnel, assets, and the environment, and ensure the secure operation of industrial facilities, particularly those engaged in high-risk processes such as oil refining, chemical manufacturing, and power generation.
The primary types of safety-instrumented systems include safety switches, safety sensors, emergency stop devices, and programmable safety devices. Safety switches, also referred to as circuit breakers or residual-current devices (RCDs), are electrical mechanisms engineered to safeguard against electric shock and avert electrical fires. They find application across various scenarios such as emergency shutdown systems (ESS), fire and gas monitoring and control (F&GC), high integrity pressure protection systems (HIPPS), burner management systems (BMS), turbo machinery control, among others. These systems cater to a broad spectrum of end-users spanning industries such as energy and power, pharmaceuticals, mining, food and beverage, oil and gas, chemical and petroleum refineries, among others.

The safety instrumented systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.21 billion in 2024 to $4.53 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to Industrial accidents and disasters, focus on asset protection and loss prevention, increasing complexity of industrial processes, rising demand for operational efficiency and increasing awareness of human factors in safety.
The safety instrumented systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.07 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to Increasing focus on cybersecurity, expansion of process industries, rapid urbanization and infrastructure development, demand for modular and scalable solutions and growing emphasis on remote monitoring and maintenance. Major trends in the forecast period include Increasing adoption of iiot and industry 4.0 technologies, rise in demand for functional safety solutions, adoption of wireless technologies, demand for remote monitoring and management.
The safety instrumented systems market is poised for growth due to the escalating frequency of industrial accidents. These incidents, occurring in diverse industrial settings, result from factors such as rapid industrialization, workforce expansion, and technological intricacies, exacerbated by a deficiency in safety protocols. Safety instrumented systems (SIS) play a pivotal role in averting or mitigating such accidents by furnishing multiple layers of protection against hazardous occurrences. They safeguard personnel and assets while ensuring adherence to regulatory standards. For example, in December 2023, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 5.7% increase in fatal work injuries in the US from 2021 to 2022, underscoring the imperative for heightened safety measures and driving demand for SIS.
Major players in the safety instrumented systems market are intensifying their efforts to develop advanced and integrated safety applications, such as hybrid safety, to gain a competitive edge. Hybrid safety refers to the capability of supporting both process safety (for continuous process industries) and machine safety (for discrete manufacturing), making it adaptable across various industrial applications that require high safety standards. For example, in September 2024, Rockwell Automation, Inc., a US-based industrial automation company, introduced the Logix SIS, a state-of-the-art safety instrumented system (SIS) designed to meet the evolving demands of modern industrial environments. The Logix SIS series offers advanced automation solutions aimed at safeguarding people, assets, and the environment by implementing safety controls, alarms, and interlocks. By integrating safety and standard control systems, Rockwell's Logix SIS helps streamline safety compliance, improves system diagnostics and availability, and enhances the ability to manage and monitor risks in complex processes, positioning it as a crucial innovation for safety in automated and hazardous industrial settings.
In February 2022, HIMA Group, a prominent provider of smart automation solutions for functional safety based in Germany, completed the acquisition of Sella Controls. This strategic move is aimed at broadening HIMA Group's product portfolio and bolstering its market presence in safety and control systems. The acquisition enables HIMA Group to augment its offerings by integrating the expertise and product range of Sella Controls, a UK-based company specializing in the design and manufacture of premium safety and control panels across various industries. This consolidation enhances HIMA Group's capability to deliver comprehensive solutions catering to a diverse clientele, encompassing sectors such as oil and gas, chemical, steel, power, nuclear, and transport.
