The Type segment emerges as the fastest-growing segment in the airport ground support equipment market
The Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE) market in North America is driven by the aviation industry, with significant contributions from airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and airports. The US, in particular, is a key market due to its mature economy and robust aviation base. The recovery of the US economy and increased air travel have led to increased demand for airport GSE, including baggage handling systems, passenger handling, and cargo handling equipment. Upgrades to existing airports, totaling USD128 billion by 2023, are creating new terminals and increasing the need for electric ground support equipment, such as Maintenance Platform Lifts and Autonomous Baggage Vehicles. Airport simulation software, Automated Guided Vehicles, and Vertiport management solutions are also in demand to enhance operational efficiency and safety. The market is subject to travel restrictions, safety regulations, and air traffic, and is transitioning towards greener products and eco-friendly processes. Key players include air carriers, authorities, and manufacturers, focusing on acquisition cost, capacity, and compliance with guidelines. Equipment offerings include tow trucks, refueling and de-icing equipment, cleaning systems, freight carts, portable water storage, firefighting equipment, passenger service vehicles, emergency services, and lavatory tank drainage systems. Innovations include Lithium batteries, airspace incursion sensors, and low altitude microweather monitoring systems.
Commenting on the market trends, a Senior Analyst of Technavio, stated,” Airports and airlines face increasing demand for efficient ground handling to enhance passenger capacity and reduce costs. GSE pooling, supplying shared airport GSE to multiple handlers, reduces congestion and saves 24%. Key airport GSE include electric vehicles, baggage systems, refueling, de-icing, and cargo handling equipment. Post-pandemic travel recovery drives investment in eco-friendly, cost-effective solutions like autonomous vehicles and simulation software.
