Wildfire Defense System Market Report 2025

The wildfire defense system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.05 billion in 2024 to $1.14 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising frequency and intensity of wildfires, increased government funding and policy support, heightened public awareness of fire risks, active involvement of the insurance sector, and strengthened community resilience initiatives.

The wildfire defense system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.57 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth projected for the forecast period is driven by the increasing number of global wildfire incidents, the expansion of cloud-based defense systems, growing demand for insurance and risk-based assessments, increased private sector investment in infrastructure, and evolving insurance compliance standards. Key trends during this period include AI-powered predictive analytics, Internet of Things (IoT) sensor networks and satellite IoT, utilization of unmanned aerial systems, cloud-based platforms combined with big data, and the integration of satellite imagery.

The rising frequency and severity of wildfires are expected to drive growth in the wildfire defense system market in the coming years. Wildfire severity refers to the extent of environmental damage caused by a wildfire, including impacts on vegetation, soil, and ecosystems. This increase in wildfire frequency and intensity is largely attributed to climate change, as higher temperatures, extended droughts, and changing weather patterns create drier conditions and more extreme fire behavior. Wildfire defense systems help protect properties proactively by establishing defensible spaces and applying fire-resistant materials to lower the risk of ignition during fires. For example, in February 2022, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), a Kenya-based global environmental authority, projected that climate and land-use changes would raise global wildfire frequency and severity, with extreme fires expected to increase by 14% by 2030, 30% by 2050, and 50% by 2100. Therefore, the growing wildfire frequency and severity are fueling the expansion of the wildfire defense system market.

Leading companies in the wildfire defense system market are investing in technological innovations powered by artificial intelligence to improve early detection, enable real-time monitoring, and facilitate rapid response for effectively containing and mitigating wildfire spread. Artificial intelligence-powered systems refer to technologies designed to detect, monitor, and control wildfire boundaries to prevent expansion. For instance, in December 2024, FireDome Ltd., an Israel-based wildfire defense company, launched an AI-powered wildfire perimeter defense system. FireDome’s system uses AI-driven cameras to identify ember-caused spot fires at an early stage and deploys fire retardant capsules to form protective barriers around properties. This technology enhances early detection and rapid response, operates autonomously without dependence on local utilities, and ensures continuous protection even in remote locations. Its main goal is to stop wildfires from spreading to properties, thereby reducing economic and environmental damage.

In September 2023, Bridger Aerospace, a US-based provider of aerial firefighting, wildfire detection, and data analytics services, acquired Ignis Technologies for $3 million. This acquisition allows Bridger Aerospace to enhance its technological capabilities by incorporating Ignis Technologies’ advanced software solutions, improving wildfire management and firefighting effectiveness through better data analytics and decision-support tools. Ignis Technologies is a US-based company specializing in wildfire risk assessment software and data analytics platforms.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The sharp hike in U.S. tariffs and the associated trade disputes in spring 2025 are notably impacting the aerospace and defense sector by raising costs for titanium, carbon fiber composites, and avionics materials largely sourced from global suppliers. Defense contractors, locked into fixed-price government contracts, absorb these added costs, while commercial aerospace firms face airline pushback on higher aircraft prices. Delays in component shipments due to customs bottlenecks further disrupt tight production schedules for jets and satellites. The industry is responding by stockpiling critical materials, seeking waivers for defense-related imports, and collaborating with allied nations to diversify supply chain.

A wildfire defense system is a coordinated network of technologies, equipment, and procedures designed to detect, prevent, and control the spread of wildfires through automated actions, real-time data analysis, and strategic deployment of resources. It aims to protect residential, commercial, and forested areas by providing early warning alerts, supporting evacuation efforts, and triggering fire suppression measures to minimize damage and improve safety.

The primary product types in wildfire defense systems include automated sprinkler systems, fire retardants, fire-resistant materials, advanced monitoring and detection systems, and others. Automated sprinkler systems activate upon detecting heat or smoke, spraying water to control or extinguish wildfires. The technology involved encompasses Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled solutions, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning applications, drone-based systems, mobile apps, and cloud-based platforms. Fire detection components include optical sensors, heat sensors, smoke detectors, thermal imaging cameras, and integrated systems connected with fire management services such as water-based, foam-based, chemical suppression, aerosol suppression, and hybrid systems. These solutions serve end users including homeowners, commercial property owners, government agencies, forest and wildlife management organizations, and others.
