Security and access control systems to hold largest share of BAS market by 2024
Security and access control systems accounted for the largest share of the BAS market in 2018, and a similar trend is likely to continue in the near future. The demand for home security solutions is growing at a rapid pace because of various factors, such as technological advancements, the rise in crime rates, the increased need for medical assistance to senior citizens at home and monitoring the children at home. Security and access control systems have become an integral part of the safety and security of buildings and their occupants. These systems have revolutionized the building security and removed human intervention. These are installed in buildings to increase the security level, monitor activities, and keep a record of people entering and exiting the building. Worldwide governments are also investing heavily to develop reliable and robust security systems for safeguarding their citizens from terrorist attacks.
BAS market for industrial application to grow at highest CAGR from 2019 to 2024
The industrial application includes manufacturing facilities, distribution facilities, warehouses, and other infrastructure buildings of automotive, chemicals, metals, engineering, mining, pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, and other industries.
