Vertical Insight: Explosives, Weapons and Contraband (EWC)


Detection Equipment Airports - 2014
Jared Bickenbach, Market Analyst

2014

The World Airports Market for EWC Detection Equipment


Expected to Surpass $994.4 Million by 2018
The threat posed by explosives, weapons and contraband (EWC) remains a global concern to
airports. To reduce these and other risks, airports routinly invest in the latest security
technologies such as threat detection equipment which when deployed, can prevent EWC from
passing through airports.
As criminals become more intelligent and threats to airports evolve, new regulations are
released which dramatically affect the way in which EWC detection equiment is purchased.
For airports, it is the responsibility of airport security managers to ensure that they are in
compliance with new EWC detection equipment regulations. Based on the overall
responsibility and influence of security managers in each step of the EWC project cycle,
security managers will remain an important decision maker in the purchasing process.
