Growing demand from the residential sector, along with rising industrial output & expansion of the industrial sector, is projected to fuel the market growth. Fire suppression systems play a vital role in protecting and alerting citizens and occupants in a facility from potential fire hazards. Moreover, a fire suppression system helps save from the potential damage fire can inflict on property and life.

U.S. Fire Suppression System market size and growth rate, 2024 - 2030

The growing awareness regarding the benefits of fire suppression systems has led to a significant rise in the adoption of fire safety solutions in commercial and residential settings. In addition to that, the growing safety rules and the implementation of fire safety regulations across the world are expected to augment the market growth over the forecast period.

An increasing number of large-scale infrastructure investment projects, such as hotels and hospitals, in the U.S. is expected to propel the construction industry, thus driving the demand for fire suppression systems across commercial buildings in the country. The rising spending capacity of consumers coupled with the growing demand for single-family housing is expected to promote the utilization of fire suppression products in the construction industry. In addition, increasing emphasis by the government to improve the overall fire safety standard of the buildings in the country is expected to boost the growth of the market.

In the U.S., the penetration level of fire suppression equipment such as fire sprinklers across industrial verticals is projected to have strong growth in the upcoming years, as industrial sectors such as energy & power, manufacturing, and oil & gas involve a high risk of fire. This is because materials such as crude oil, coal, petroleum, and flammable gases are being used. Since these materials are susceptible to fire, high-grade fire suppression and detection systems are deployed across these sectors to control and prevent fire.

Moreover, the necessity for severe implementation of fire safety standards in the oil and gas sector has resulted in higher investments by offshore oil and gas operators, which is projected to have a beneficial influence on the market. Rising investments in novel extraction processes are expected to increase demand for fire suppression equipment in the oil and gas sector. Furthermore, mist-based extinguishing technologies and devices such as laser optical smoke detectors, hypoxic air fire suppression systems, and others are likely to gain traction in the global market. For instance, HI-FOG from Marioff Corporation is a specifically designed high-pressure water mist fire suppression solution for offshore platforms and production vessels. Additionally, capacity additions in the industry have further led to the implementation of enhanced fire suppression systems.

Market Concentration & Characteristics

Market growth stage is low, and pace of the market growth is accelerating. The market is characterized by a high degree of innovation owing to rapid technological advancements. Further, the market players have been undertaking strategic initiatives in order to cater to rising demand for fire suppression systems by acquisition & merger, joint venture, product innovation, and research & development activities. For instance, In January 2022, Rusoh launched ELIMINATOR fire extinguisher unit. The product is ergonomically designed, where the top of the extinguisher is significantly large and sturdy while tapering down. There is a separate enclosed large carry handle, and the opening is large enough to accommodate a gloved hand. It also has a large discharge nozzle at the end of the hose.

The fire suppression system industry is also characterized by a moderate level of merger and acquisition (M&A) activity by the leading players. This is due to several factors, including increasing the reach of their products in the market and enhancing the availability of their products & services in diverse geographical areas. Key market players adopting this inorganic growth strategy include Johnson Controls and Halma Plc.

Fire Suppression System Market Concentration & Characteristics

Regulations play a crucial role in shaping the landscape of the market, influencing product development, safety standards, and market access. Market players are increasingly prioritizing sustainability by opting for carbon-efficient processes to manufacture the equipment used in fire suppression. By embracing sustainable operations, manufacturers are able to not only contribute to environmental conservation but also improve their brand positioning and market penetration rate.

Application Insights

Industrial segment accounted for largest market revenue share of 49.03% in 2023 for the global fire suppression system market. Industrial segment of the market consists of fire suppression systems used in manufacturing facilities, warehouses & storage buildings, data hosting centers, etc. These industrial premises are more prone to fire hazards than commercial and residential buildings, as they deal with hazardous and flammable materials very often. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standard, portable fire extinguishers must be placed within a travel distance of 75 feet in industrial units. The fire suppression system is prerequisite to make industrial floors safe working places. Hence, with the increased focus on workplace safety & implementation of stringent rules pertaining to workers’ safety in industrial sector, the demand for fire suppression system in industrial segment is likely to remain high over the forecast period.

Global Fire Suppression System market share and size, 2023

The residential segment is likely to grow at a significant pace over the forecast period. The rising awareness related to fire safety protocols meant for residential applications among end users across the world is expected to fuel the demand for fire suppression systems that are installed in residential buildings. For instance, in November 2022, the Federation of European Fire Officers (FEU) and the European Fire Safety Alliance together launched an EU-wide awareness program. This program aims at increasing awareness among the masses about the benefits and the requirements for installing smoke alarms and fire suppression systems in households. Such programs are anticipated to drive the demand for fire suppression systems in residential applications over the forecast period.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market and accounted for 36.7% market share in 2023, on account of rising demand for multifamily housing projects and growing consumer awareness regarding fire safety. Rising spending capability of consumers and growing emphasis by the government and regulatory bodies to improve the overall fire safety standard of the buildings in the region are expected to drive the demand for fire suppression systems and, in turn, trigger market growth over the forecast period.

Fire Suppression System Market Trends, by Region, 2024 - 2030

The Asia Pacific market is likely to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period. Factors such as rising awareness about fire safety among end users and the increasing construction activity in developing economies, such as India & China has been driving the market. Furthermore, growing demand for intelligent home automation systems and smart buildings, which deliver optimum security and safety, is likely to boost the adoption of fire suppression systems across the region. Also, rising awareness concerning prevention from sudden fire accidents in commercial buildings such as schools, hospitals, and hotels is propelling the demand for the installation of fire suppression systems across the region.
