Drivers, Restraints, & Opportunities: Fire Protection Systems Market
Need for fire Protection Systems Across Various Industry Domains
Various sectors have witnessed the requirement for fire protection systems, especially industrial, as there is a greater risk of fire hazard in this sector due to the presence of various flammables such as oil and gas, and operations such as mining, fuel, manufacturing, and others. Fire protection systems offer safety and reduce damage and loss that can be caused by fire hazard. Increase in incident of fire and government mandates for workplace safety drive the market for fire protection systems in this region.
Increase in Automation in rEsidential and Commercial Buildings
Integration of fire and safety systems with the automated buildings is critical to save or reduce loss during fire hazard. A fire safety system provides high level of coordination, which is required between the active fire system, building wide communications, and interactive smoke control systems in case of a fire. This system minimizes the loss caused during fire. North America recorded a fire loss of ~14.3 billion in 2015; thus, fire safety is an important and one of the mandatory feature in the upcoming commercial & residential buildings.
Higher Installation & Maintenance Costs
Fire protection systems are more complex as they comprise several additional components, especially the fire detection system. This adds to the system cost and increases the overall cost for the safety system. Owing to such complexity, experienced and skilled professionals are required for installation of the system. Moreover, the maintenance cost is also a concern for these systems. These systems require regular maintenance checks to ensure the functionality of the system and reliability.
