Fire Safety Equipment Market to Shoot Up With the Presence of Oil & Gas Industries in the GCC

The GCC Fire Safety Equipment market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 3.26% during the forecast period of 2023-28, cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. The factor attributing to the rising demand for this equipment in the GCC is the presence of the chemical as well as oil & gas industries. The existence of oil, gasoline, and other highly flammable & combustible materials poses a significant threat, such as fire incidents & several others in the mining, oil & gas industries. As a result, vendors are expanding their investments to create new fire suppression systems to safeguard the sites & industries from critical environments. In addition to this, the market's expansion was further accelerated by the growing demand for fire detection & prevention equipment, which is legally required to address & prevent such fire accidents in the GCC region.

Moreover, the boost in safety concerns in the region has also necessitated the strict enforcement of building safety regulations. This has led to a rise in the requirement for fire safety equipment in residential as well as commercial buildings. Hence, due to an upsurge in the number of properties in the countries, such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and others, the requirement for this equipment has also been enhanced. Along with it, the strict government-laid safety regulations & the rise in automation brought on by smart homes & construction projects are fueling the need for them.

In addition, the market noted high-quality fire safety installations, which are gaining market popularity as risk management strategies become increasingly integrated into oil & gas facilities. Products designed specifically for usage in oil refineries, gas processing plants, and other high-risk environments include a wide range of fire detection options. In addition, new technologies like IoT integrated solutions & wireless sensor networks are presumed to boost the market growth in the coming years, further states the research report, “GCC Fire Safety Equipment Market Analysis, 2023.”e?
