The global explosive trace detection (ETD) market size reached US$ 2.3 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 5.7 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.13% during 2024-2032. The rising need to enhance security measures in critical infrastructure, increasing threats of terrorism, mob attacks, insurgence and geopolitical tensions, and the growing security measures to detect and prevent the smuggling of explosives represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) refers to a technology used to detect the presence of minute traces of explosive substances that may pose a threat. ETD systems are characterized by heightened sensitivity to detect extremely low levels of explosive residue and enhanced selectivity to distinguish between different types of explosives and non-explosive substances. In addition to this, they are non-invasive devices that work by non-contact sampling and rapid detection, thereby facilitating efficient screening in high-traffic areas. ETD systems typically utilize ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) process that relies on the movement of ionized molecules in a carrier gas under an electric field. They can also function by mass spectrometry (MS) to detect explosives by ionizing and fragmenting particles, measuring the mass-to-charge ratio of resulting ions, and comparing them to a database for identification. Additionally, they can be used with other security measures such as X-ray scanners, metal detectors, and canine teams, thereby minimizing the risk of damage or compromising integrity of tested items as well as providing better output.

Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) Market Trends:
The global market is primarily driven by the rising need to enhance security measures in critical infrastructure, such as government buildings, and public gathering spaces like stadiums and convention centers. This can be attributed to the increasing threats of terrorism, mob attacks, insurgence and geopolitical tensions. In line with this, strict security regulations implemented in the aviation industry to protect passengers and prevent potential terrorist attacks is resulting in large-scale product deployment in airports. Moreover, the increasing number of measures undertaken by the government bodies of several countries to detect and prevent the smuggling of explosives or other dangerous materials is also providing an impetus to the market. In addition to this, continual product innovations with enhanced sample collection features, analysis techniques, and data interpretation software are creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, an enhanced focus on border security measures to combat illegal activities is leading to a higher uptake of explosive detection technologies among security personnel and organizations. The escalating demand for safety of participants and spectators in major international events, including sports tournaments, summits, and exhibitions, is resulting in the application of stringent security measures, thereby fueling the market. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include rapid urbanization, growing cross-border trade, the advent of improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
