Explosion-Proof Lighting Market Analysis

Workplace safety and proper maintenance of hazardous locations in industrial and commercial settings have prompted the development and growth of explosion-proof equipment such as lighting. Currently, the market growth is driven by sectors such as oil & gas, chemical, and energy. Certain norms for safety in hazardous locations in these sectors are compelling these sectors to install more certified products.

Explosion-Proof Lighting Market Overview

Hazardous events across diverse industries can be easily tackled by implementing the best practices. Several agencies are responsible for certifying the types of equipment for use in a hazardous area. For instance, in North America, Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Factory Mutual (FM) usually provide standards, testing, and certification, whereas in Canada, the Canadian Standard Association (CSA) provides approvals. Similarly, in Europe, Equipment for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres (i.e., ATEX) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) offer standards that are acknowledged worldwide. These organizations do not implement their testing, such as UL, FM, and CSA. However, they notify bodies to perform the testing so as to meet the standards set by them. Several North American players also certify their products to IEC/or ATEX standards in order to sell them internationally. However, the certifications offered by these organizations are quite different from each other.

Explosion-Proof Lighting Market Drivers and Opportunities

Expansion of Oil & Gas Industry

The oil & gas industry plays an important role in the economic transformation of various countries. The industry accounts for the largest share of global consumption of energy resources. Natural gas is likely to be one of the fastest-growing fossil fuels in the coming years. Many countries are scaling up their oil production capacities to fulfill their domestic energy demands. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global oil demand is expected to rise by 6% during 2022–2028, with significant requirements from the chemicals, energy, power, aviation, and petrochemical industries. The global demand is ultimately expected to reach 105.7 million barrels per day by 2028. A rapidly increasing need for oil among various industries encourages oil & gas industry players to scale up their capacities through plant expansion strategies, which creates the need for explosion-proof equipment, such as lighting, for efficiently monitoring and controlling plant operations by enhancing workers' safety.

According to the Urwald eV report published in November 2023, 384 businesses across the world reported an average capital expenditure of more than US$ 10 million in oil & gas exploration activities during 2021–2023. The top seven companies that invested in oil & gas exploration were China National Petroleum Corporation (US$ 5.9 billion), China National Offshore Oil Corporation (US$ 3.2 billion), Saudi Aramco (US$ 2.8 billion), Pemex (US$ 2.6 billion), Sinopec Group (US$ 2.4 billion), Pioneer Natural Resources (US$ 2.1 billion), and Shell plc (US$ 2.0 billion). These investments allow them to adopt technologically advanced, smart, and intelligent explosion-proof lighting systems to enhance workers' visibility and protect them from unforeseen incidences. Thus, the expanding oil & gas industry worldwide fuel the explosion-proof lighting market growth.

Development of High-Power Explosion Proof Lighting

Explosion-proof lighting is mostly employed in hazardous and demanding conditions containing combustible gases and dust. These lights have a good explosion-proof function, making them suitable for IIA, IIB, and IIC explosive gas environments. In addition to their primary application in oil & gas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, energy, and mining industries, they find potential applications in the railway, electric power, metallurgy, petroleum and petrochemicals, chemicals, steel, aviation, and shipbuilding industries, among others. These industries generate a significant demand for high-power explosion-proof lighting to prevent explosions caused by equipment or other accidents at the working sites. High-power explosion-proof lighting products are designed to withstand harsh operating conditions, including high temperatures and extreme heat, making them ideal for use in hazardous locations. Dongguan Ming Yang Lighting Limited provides well-designed, high-power, explosion-proof lighting systems that operate with stability and endurance in high-temperature conditions. These systems feature high-strength aluminum radiators with an air convection structure, which helps withstand heat. A constant current drive, protection against short circuit and overvoltage protection, and high electromagnetic compatibility are among other noteworthy features of this system, which render them suitable for application in hazardous industries such as metallurgy, petroleum, petrochemical, chemicals, steel, oil & gas, marine, and mining. Thus, the development of high-power explosion-proof lighting systems is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the explosion-proof lighting market growth during the forecast period.
