Airfield Lighting Market By Type (Runway Lighting, Taxiway Lighting, Approach Lighting, Apron Lighting), By Technology (Non-Led, Led) - Growth, Future Prospects, And Competitive Analysis, 2017 - 2025

Airfield lighting is the lighting system used to ensure safe and efficient working of air terminals and adjacent utilities. The system comprises an assortment of lights utilized for various applications at the landing runways and support a variety of other utilities at the air terminals at nights and during unfavorable weather conditions. Thereby, airfield lighting has become a fundamental part of the general airplane terminal administration. Depending on the places and applications, airfield lighting is classified into runway lighting, taxiway lighting, approach lighting and apron lighting systems. The overall lighting system is controlled through a centralized command system in order to ensure optimum operational effectiveness.

With continuously increasing air traffic around the globe, air terminals have been experiencing numerous challenges pertaining to airport management. Issues such as securing the flow of both incoming and outgoing aircrafts along with maintaining visibility throughout the airfield have resulted in the adoption of advanced lighting systems at various airports across the world. Numerous air terminal administrations across the globe are constantly engaged in the up gradation of their current lighting systems with improved and higher energy efficient lighting systems. Such air terminal administrations rely on long lasting relationships with airfield lighting suppliers to ensure constant up gradation with the latest and advanced lighting systems. With continued requirement for lighting products coupled with on-going product development, the airfield lighting market is expected to witness consistent growth during the forecast period from 2017 to 2025.

The global airfield lighting market is segmented, based on technology, into following categories:

• Non-LED
• LED
•  

In 2016, LED airfield lighting dominated the overall airfield lighting market. The light emitting diodes or LED lights are exceptionally energy efficient lighting technology. The utilization of LED lighting is not just limited to applications such as pointers and signals but they are utilized in the overall lighting system. They offer multiple benefits over conventional non-LED lighting in terms of energy consumption, working life and construction to withstand unfavorable climatic and working conditions. The factors such as energy conservation, long service life and requirement of limited maintenance are expected to contribute in the strong growth of the LED airfield lighting systems in the following years.

Non-LED lighting systems segment trailed the LED lighting systems in terms of revenue in 2016. Non-LED lights have been losing its share in the overall market to the LED lighting segment on account of the benefits offered by LED technology. With high power utilization, short life expectancy and high maintenance, the non-LED lights are expected to lose their contribution even further in the overall airfield lighting market.

The airfield lightning market has been segmented, on the basis of geographical regions, as per following regions and countries:

• North America
  • U.S.
  • Rest of North America
• Europe
  • U.K.
  • Germany
  • France
  • Rest of Europe
• Asia Pacific
  • Japan
  • China
  • India
  • Rest of Asia Pacific
• Rest of the World (RoW)
  • The Middle East and Africa
  • Latin America

In 2016, North America dominated the overall airfield lighting market in terms of revenue. Increasing air transportation coupled with rising security concerns have accelerated the development of various air terminals in the North America region particularly in the U.S. Adverse climatic conditions across different regions and rising air traffic have compelled various air terminal administrations across the region to keep a continuous check on their existing lighting systems. Thereby, airplane terminal administrations have been consistently updating their existing airfield lighting systems.

Europe trailed North America in the airfield lighting market in terms of revenue in 2016. Similar to the North American market, European nations have experienced a rise in passenger and cargo transportation. On-going air travel for tourism and business in the European nations has resulted in frequent up gradation of the airplane terminal facilities including periodic replacement of airfield lighting systems. The Asia Pacific region is expected to demonstrate the fastest growth in the global airfield lighting market during the forecast period from 2017 to 2025. Developing economies of Asia Pacific have expanding their air transportation facilities with nearly 350 new air terminals being planned across Asia Pacific region. With the commissioning of the new airports, the Asia Pacific region is expected to offer immense growth opportunities for the airfield lighting market.
