Market Driver

Airports and airlines are under pressure to enhance efficiency and reduce costs due to increasing air passenger traffic and the demand for on-time performance. GSE pooling, a ground handling procedure, is a solution adopted by airport operators to address these challenges. This involves sharing of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) or GSE solutions among multiple airline ground handlers at a specific airport. By reducing congestion on terminals, GSE pooling improves airport passenger capacity and saves unwanted space. However, the varying peak requirements of airlines and handlers necessitate storing more GSE at terminals than required, impacting airport operations. Prominent airports worldwide are embracing GSE pooling to address the shortage of space at terminals. Technavio anticipates the popularity of GSE pooling to expand globally, while the adoption of advanced airport GSE, driven by the need for efficiency, will fuel market growth during the forecast period.

The Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE) market is witnessing significant trends in the airline, aircraft, and airport sectors. Key trends include the use of electric ground support equipment for improved operational efficiency and eco-friendly processes. Post-pandemic travel recovery and safety regulations are driving the demand for autonomous baggage vehicles, airport simulation software, and automated guided vehicles. Cargo handling is a growing trend with freight carts, cargo handling systems, and vertiport management solutions. Air traffic and inadequate airport infrastructure necessitate tow trucks for aircraft movement, refueling, de-icing, cleaning, and emergency services. Authorities and air carriers prioritize capacity expansion with greener products like lithium battery-operated GSEs. Compliance with safety regulations and travel restrictions necessitate airspace incursion sensors and low altitude microweather monitoring. Overall, the market focuses on enhancing airport operation in the terminal's service area through innovative solutions like maintenance platform lifts, passenger handling systems, and firefighting equipment. Acquisition cost remains a critical factor in the market.

Market Challenges

  • Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE) manufacturing involves producing high-quality components at reduced costs, a challenge for OEMs in this competitive market. Consumer demand is surging, necessitating strict cost parameters for profitability. The small supplier base necessitates diversification into various components, which is capital-intensive and includes new services like designing and developing new parts. High component costs and stringent quality requirements add to the challenge. Outsourcing manufacturing to low-cost countries, such as China, is an option, but rising labor costs are making it difficult to maintain low production costs. These factors may hinder the growth of the Airport GSE market during the forecast period.
  • The Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE) market faces several challenges in the current aviation landscape. Airspace incursion sensors are crucial for safety but can increase operational complexity and cost. Towing airplanes, refueling, de-icing, cleaning, freight carts, and other services require significant capacity and adherence to eco-friendly processes and safety regulations. Authorities issue guidelines for greener products and eco-friendly processes, affecting the acquisition cost of electric-operated GSEs, including lithium battery-powered equipment. Post-pandemic travel and travel restrictions impact airport operations in the terminal's service area. Air carriers prioritize operational efficiency enhancement, favoring electric vehicles over non-electric and fuel cell vehicles. Inadequate airport infrastructure and safety regulations add to the challenges, requiring a balance between ownership, fleet size, and air traffic management for cargo transportation.
