Aircraft Lighting Market: Key Drivers and Trends
The growing popularity of low-cost and low-maintenance lighting solutions has been identified as one of the significant drivers fueling the growth of the aircraft lighting market. Traditional lighting systems in aircraft require regular maintenance, incurring additional maintenance costs. Traditional lighting solutions require frequent replacement of failed or discolored lighting elements and broken mounting units. Leveraging on such limitations, vendors have started offering low-cost and low-maintenance lighting solutions, such as LED-lighting systems.
LED lights have a longer lifespan and provide bright and consistent output. In LED lights, a wide range of color temperatures and fade-in-and fade-out light dimming functions is available. LED lighting systems can also be connected to the existing cabin control panel without any alterations to its functions or layout, thereby making its deployment easier and cost-effective. Moreover, these lighting systems help in increasing fuel efficiency and reducing the overall electric power consumption of the aircraft. These benefits of LED lighting systems are expected to boost their adoption in aircraft, consequently fueling the growth of the aircraft lighting market.
- The increasing demand for technologically improved lights has been identified as one of the critical aircraft lighting market trends.
- Investments in the research and development of advanced lighting solutions for both commercial and military aircraft are increasing.
- For instance, Oxley Group is focusing on the development of various technologically advanced lighting solutions for military aircraft, such as complex air refueling lighting systems.
- The company is also investing in the development of specific flash patterns for the formation of anti-collision lights in both visible and infra-red.
- Market vendors are also conducting various research activities on human-centric lighting and their impact on passengers’ photobiological and photometric response.
- For instance, STG Aerospace is investing in the R&D of advanced mood-lighting systems that have a calming effect on passengers.
- Such technological advances in aircraft lighting systems are expected to significantly improve passenger comfort and drive the growth of the market during the next five years.
- During 2020-2024, the aircraft lighting market will grow at a CAGR of over 5%.
