The Physical Security Business in 2014
A major change in the geographic distribution of sales is taking place with Asia delivering the highest rate of growth and increasing its market share. This will continue because there is still a massive latent demand waiting to be exploited. In China penetration is only one third of the size of North America. However the leading edge manufacturers of the west are failing to get their share of this business, which is dominated by Chinese manufacturers. 2 of the world's largest manufacturers of Video Surveillance products are now Chinese and they have within the last 2 years established a significant presence in western markets.
The report sieves out ALL the key facts and draws conclusions, so you can understand what is shaping the future of the Security Industry:
- The total value of world production at factory gate prices was $25.28 billion. Of this Video Surveillance products at $13.48 billion take a share of 53%, access control at $5.62 billion takes a 23% share and intruder alarms at $6.18 billion has a 24% share. The developed markets of North America and the EU are losing market share to Asia and particularly China, which will be the largest single market by the end of this decade.
- In 2014 the combined product sales grew by 7.5% with growth in the video surveillance sector achieving 9.9%.
- Growth in the sales of Access Control has increased to 10% as it moves into IP Network systems and biometric and identity management systems; it could become the number one growth market in 2015.
- In 2014 we identified 26 deals compared with 34 in 2013, and 82 in 2011. Whilst the number of deals and total value of acquisitions has fallen the average value of a deal has increased from $120m in 2011 to $166 million in 2014.
