Dublin, Nov. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Firefighting Robots Global Market Opportunities And Strategies To 2034" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The firefighting robots market has witnessed significant growth, with its global value reaching approximately $2.82 billion in 2024, experiencing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.19% since 2019. Continued expansion is anticipated, projecting an increase to $5.06 billion by 2029, progressing further to $8.98 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 12.12%.
Several factors contributed to growth during the historic period, including smart city initiatives, rising cases of industrial fires, and a growing demand for automation in industrial processes which enhanced firefighter safety. However, the market faced challenges such as high initial costs and limitations related to battery life and power density.
Looking forward, factors such as the expansion of urban and industrial infrastructure, increased adoption in military and defense operations, and governmental support will drive growth. However, issues like interoperability challenges, lack of standardized regulations, and trade tensions could impede future growth.
The market's segmentation by robot type includes tracked, wheeled, and humanoid firefighting robots. Among these, tracked firefighting robots emerged as the largest segment, projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.61% from 2024 to 2029. By payload, fire extinguishing agents lead, but the fastest growth is expected in cameras and sensors at a CAGR of 14.39% in the same period.
For platform segmentation, tracked platforms dominate, while legged robots are poised for the fastest growth at a CAGR of 42.56% during 2024-2029. In the autonomy segment, teleoperated robots take the lead, but autonomous robots are expected to grow more rapidly, at a 27.40% CAGR. The medium size segment, 100-500 kg, accounts for the majority of the market and expects continued expansion at 14.43% CAGR.
Applications in the industrial sector held the largest share in 2024, yet residential applications are set to grow fastest. Western Europe led the market in 2024, but the fastest expansion is anticipated in Africa and South America with projected CAGRs of 33.55% and 30.87%, respectively.
Market competition is diverse, with the top players collectively holding 3.81% of the market in 2024. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. leads with a 0.80% market share, followed by other key players like Rosenbauer International AG and Ambipar Group.
