The size of the global explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) equipment market is expected to be valued at USD 10.77 billion by 2029 from USD 8.79 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 4.14% from 2024 to 2029.
Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) can be defined as the tools and equipment used to provide detection, handling, and protection during explosives handling operations. Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Equipment consists of tools that are used to provide detection, handling and protection in the event of explosives handling operations.
Defense and police force modernization programs in various countries are expected to drive demand for explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) Equipment around the world. The growth in the explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) equipment market is also driven by the increasing demand for military ground robots programmed to spread bombs and other explosives because it is safer to spread bombs via robots than manually. The growing concern about military security and the adoption of EOD bots are the main reasons for the growth of the explosive weapons market. The constant threat from outside radical groups is increasing the demand for public safety and further expanding the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Equipment market. These factors are expected to strengthen the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Equipment market in the future. Therefore, it has become essential for the military to use effective explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) equipment to ensure minimal casualties and continuous transportation services along the border. This may be partly due to the growing need to strengthen borders, especially in some countries that face strained relations with neighbors or commercial rivals, perceived as a threat of military attack.
Increasing advances in the military sector, as well as military modernization activities around the world, are creating enormous opportunities for the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Equipment market during the forecast period. Increasing threats from terrorists and rebel groups are accelerating market growth as governments must purchase EOD tools and equipment to detect and spread explosives quickly and effectively.
The increasing emphasis on the use of UGVs and robotic explosives handling units in EOD activities to reduce threats to military and law enforcement personnel is expected to create new opportunities for players in the future. The increase in terrorist activity and cases of cross-border conflicts in many parts of the world have led to an increase in the cross-border use of explosives. This, in turn, is expected to be an important factor in the growth of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Equipment market. In addition, the growth of the general EOD equipment market includes a variety of military and police modernization programs that are expected to stimulate the explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) Equipment market growth in the coming years.
