Handheld Chemical and Metal Detector Market Dynamics:
Driver: Rising focus of governments worldwide on imposing stringent regulations to ensure human and environmental safety
Government regulations play a significant role in the growth of the market. Several chemicals such as nitroglycerin, octogen, azidoazide are highly toxic and explosive.
Exposures to hazardous chemicals can cause a wide range of short- and long-term health effects, depending on the nature of the chemicals used and a person's susceptibility, as well as whether these chemicals are inhaled or absorbed by the skin. To safeguard human lives and the environment, different governing bodies, including the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), have laid down certain guidelines that regulate the manufacturing and application of these chemicals. OSHA is responsible for the promulgation and enforcement activities.
As per its directives, the permissible exposure limit (PEL) for octogen is an 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA). NIOSH is responsible for recommending health and safety standards. As per its directives, the recommended exposure limit (REL) for octogen is a 10-hour TWA. All manufacturers and end-user industries need to follow the regulations laid by these authorities. The GxP guidelines and regulations are imposed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ensure that bio/pharmaceutical products are safe, meet their intended use, and adhere to quality processes during manufacturing, control, storage, and distribution.
Hence, pharmaceutical manufacturing companies require handheld chemical and drug detectors for the identification, testing, and rejection or approval of raw materials or components before proceeding with the drug manufacturing process. Also, several end-user industries, such as chemicals and pharmaceuticals, are required to submit data related to safety practices followed by them, measures taken by them to handle any hazardous conditions occurring due to production, leakage, spillage, and any casualties that occurred at workplaces due to toxic or hazardous chemicals to EPA. Thus, the rising focus of governments across the world on the imposition of stringent regulations to ensure worker safety leads to high demand for handheld chemical detectors by chemicals and pharmaceuticals industries.
Restraint: Extremely high cost of handheld chemical, explosive, and narcotics detectors, along with longer time to market
Handheld chemical, explosive, and narcotics detectors can be carried from one place to another by security personnel including firefighters and emergency responders, who may need to enter dangerous environments where toxic chemicals or hazardous materials (HAZMATs) are present.
These devices are essential to safeguard first responders, who come in contact with drugs, explosives, or hazardous chemicals, from long-term consequences of these chemicals on their health.
However, these devices are extremely costly compared to other portable detection devices. For instance, the GID-3 portable chemical detector offered by Smiths Detection, Inc. costs USD 18,255 per unit, while ACE-ID, a handheld Raman detector capable of detecting explosives, precursors, narcotics, and toxic chemicals, offered by Smiths Detection, Inc. costs USD 25,995 per unit. Also, MX908, a handheld mass spectroscopy detector capable of detecting explosives, precursors, narcotics, and toxic chemicals, offered by 908 Devices, Inc. costs USD 65,000 per unit. Moreover, the product development process is also time-consuming; hence, limited products are launched or developed by the manufacturers. Thus, factors such as device development cost and R&D cost contribute to the high price of handheld chemical, explosive, and narcotics detectors.
Opportunity: Surging need to improve airport security
Airports are often the transit points for drug trafficking, transnational organized crimes, and acts of terrorism. Such illicit flows have a direct impact on city safety.
Therefore, all individuals at airports are bound to be screened every day for the presence of trace explosives, liquids, metals, radiological materials, biological agents, nuclear weapons, and drugs to avoid airside crimes. The use of effective technologies is essential to address a variety of threats posed by precursor chemicals and explosives, as well as by terrorism. Governments worldwide have become increasingly concerned about the smuggling of explosives, weapons, and radiological materials.
Hence, they have started enforcing several security measures, such as screening passengers and their luggage to ensure public safety, identifying suspicious air cargo, and restricting illegal activities. Screening devices used at airports across the world need to comply with the European Civil Aviation Conference's (ECAC) Standard 3. Thus, various screening devices, such as handheld detectors, desktop or portable detection devices, screening systems, are used at airports to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the security process.
In addition, the projected air freight growth, owing to the improved standard of living, high disposable income, and affordable cost of travel, is likely to increase the number of air passengers and air freight volumes, which will elevate the demand for security screening devices, including handheld chemical, explosive, narcotics, and metal detectors. However, due to the outbreak of the pandemic, there was a decrease in the air passenger volume, but it is expected to increase in the future. According to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), there were 4.5 billion air passengers in 2019, whereas the number decreased to 1.8 billion in 2020, but with likely normalcy in the next few months, the airline travel is likely to rebound, thereby creating the rising need for handheld detectors.
Challenge: Interference caused in functioning of certain medical devices when end users are scanned using metal detectors
Handheld metal detectors are used to ensure the complete safety of people at airports, commercial and government buildings, and public places.
This guarantees that none of the people are carrying any dangerous materials to avoid the act of terrorism and smuggling. Metal detectors use various technologies, such as very low frequency, pulse induction, and beat-frequency oscillation involving magnetic fields to detect the presence of metal/s. According to the Center for Devices and Radiological Health of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the operation of certain medical devices, including pacemakers, implantable cardioverter or defibrillators, and spinal cord stimulators, may be affected by the electromagnetic fields produced by handheld metal detectors. For instance, the electromagnetic field affects the operation of the pacemaker by shifting the pacing rate, alteration to programmed pacing therapy, loss of or near loss of consciousness, and chest pain.
Patients with implantable cardioverter or defibrillators may get inappropriate shocks to the heart, whereas people with implanted spinal-cord stimulators experience overstimulation.
