Increasing Number of Strategic Alliances to Prompt Fire Safety
The growing need for a fire safety system encourages companies to produce more advanced solutions. Hence, the companies are working on various strategic alliances such as partnerships, collaborations, and mergers and acquisitions with other companies.
A few of such partnerships, collaborations, and mergers and acquisitions by the companies are mentioned below:
• In June 2022, AMI Global LLC announced a strategic partnership with Peerless Pump Company, a wholly owned company of the Grundfos Group. Under this partnership, the companies have launched Peerless FireConnect Sentry Fire Industry Monitoring Solution. The new fire pump system provides real-time information, leak monitoring, and detection, ensuring fire pump systems are always ready to act.
• In February 2022, Keltron Corporation announced the acquisition of MIJA Industries, Inc., a leading medical, industrial, and fire protection pressure gauge application manufacturer. The acquisition will help Keltron to enhance its fire extinguisher monitoring solutions by adding high-precision fire and oxygen gauges.
Thus, through the abovementioned strategic alliances, several companies are working on helping their customers provide advanced fire safety systems, which is expected to provide potential opportunities for the growth of the fire pump controllers market.
Market Overview
The MEA fire pump controllers market is segmented into Saudi Arabia, UAE, South Africa, and the rest of MEA. One of the major reasons behind the growth of the market in the region is the presence of large number companies and manufactures of fire pump and fire pump controllers. In Saudi Arabia alone, there are more than 500 fire protection system companies that caters to the demand of domestic and neighboring countries for fire controller and protection systems. Further, the rising construction projects across developed economies such as the UAE and developing economies such as African countries is boosting the deployment of fire pumps, fire detection sensors, valves, display systems, and pump controller systems across the commercial and industrial construction projects in different regional countries.
Further, the region comprises many offshore oil & gas infrastructures facilities constantly driving the deployment of fire protection systems and pump controller systems across those facilities. Moreover, the rising construction of new offshore oil & gas facilities is another major factor driving the deployment of fire safety systems and pump controllers across the region. For instance, in September 2022, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) awarded a contract worth US$ 548 million to National Petroleum Construction Company (NPCC) to build a new gas pipeline at its offshore field of Abu Dhabi. Such instances are pushing the expansion of offshore industrial facilities and thereby will drive the deployment of fire pump and fire pump controller systems across the region.
