A fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display is an onboard digital screen that facilitates real-time communication and information exchange within emergency response vehicles. It connects with dispatch networks and mapping systems to provide instant access to routing information, incident details, and operational updates.
The primary product types of fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) displays include rugged displays, standard displays, touchscreen displays, and others. Rugged displays are durable screens designed to withstand heat, vibration, dust, and shock, ensuring clear visibility even under extreme conditions. Applications include navigation, communication, incident management, vehicle diagnostics, and more, serving end-users such as municipal fire departments, industrial fire brigades, airport fire services, and others. Distribution channels include direct sales, distributors, online sales, and additional outlets.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid rise in U.S. tariffs and the subsequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are having a major impact on the electrical and electronics sector, with semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals (essential for batteries and motors) subject to steep duties. Consumer electronics brands face profit erosion, as competitive markets limit their ability to pass costs to buyers. Industrial electronics manufacturers, meanwhile, grapple with delayed projects due to shortages of tariff-impacted components like printed circuit boards. Companies are responding by relocating assembly to tariff-exempt countries, increasing inventory buffers, and redesigning products to reduce dependency on restricted materials.
The fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market statistics, including fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market share, detailed fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display industry. This fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.20 billion in 2024 to $1.34 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%. The growth during the historic period resulted from increasing urbanization and complex emergency scenarios, rising demand for real-time data access, expanded government investments in public safety modernization, growing adoption by municipal, industrial, and airport fire services, and heightened need for improved communication and coordination.
The fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.09 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.7%. Growth in the forecast period is driven by greater integration of IoT and AI technologies, stricter fire safety regulations and standards, rising public awareness and demand for enhanced fire services, increasing need for interoperability across emergency services, and advancements in mobile communication technologies. Key trends in the forecast period include integration of advanced analytics and AI, a shift toward cloud-based MDT solutions, emphasis on rugged and durable hardware, improved interoperability across emergency networks, and adoption of multi-functional displays.
The increasing occurrence of fire-related emergencies is expected to drive the growth of the fire engine mobile data terminal (MDT) display market. Fire-related emergencies refer to critical situations caused by active fires or fire risks that threaten people, property, or the environment, requiring swift action to manage or eliminate the danger. The frequency of such emergencies is rising due to rapid urbanization, which leads to higher population density, more extensive infrastructure development, and increased risks of electrical faults and accidental fires in densely populated areas. Fire engine MDT displays play a crucial role in these emergencies by providing real-time incident data and optimized navigation, allowing first responders to reach the scene more quickly and efficiently. For example, in November 2024, the National Safety Council (NSC) reported that home-fire deaths per 1,000 home fires increased from 7.5 in 2022 to 8.7 in 2023, a 16% rise from the previous year. Consequently, the rising frequency of fire-related emergencies is fueling the growth of the fire engine MDT display market.
Key companies in the fire engine MDT display market are focusing on integrated solutions such as advanced emergency response software, which improves accuracy and reduces errors by centralizing data management. Emergency response software is a digital tool that streamlines communication, resource management, and decision-making during emergencies for faster, more effective action. For instance, in August 2024, StreetWise, a US-based provider of public safety information services, launched the Windows MDT version of CADlink, an advanced platform designed to run directly on fire engine MDT displays. CADlink combines traditional MDT functions with features such as pre-incident planning, real-time updates, vehicle tracking, and tactical mapping. By seamlessly integrating with existing computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records management systems, it enhances situational awareness and interdepartmental communication, optimizing emergency operations. Available on Windows, Android, and iOS, CADlink helps emergency agencies modernize MDT displays for more efficient mobile operations.
In July 2022, Fujitsu Australia, a technology company, partnered with the New South Wales Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) to digitally transform its emergency response systems. The collaboration aims to enhance the digital infrastructure of NSW RFS, improving fire emergency outcomes in rural areas of New South Wales. NSW RFS, known for having the world's largest volunteer fire force, provides firefighting, emergency response, and community safety services across Australia. Through this partnership, Fujitsu is helping modernize the agency's mission-critical systems, boosting the effectiveness of their response to fire emergencies.
