The Middle East and Africa emergency lighting market size was estimated at USD 671.1 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1.48 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 15.2% from 2025 to 2030. The market is witnessing robust growth, driven by large-scale infrastructure development and stringent regulatory standards across the region.
In addition, increasing adoption of energy-efficient technologies, such as LED-based systems, and advancements in battery backup solutions are enhancing the reliability and sustainability of emergency lighting installations.
Moreover, the integration of smart lighting technologies and automation is further improving safety, operational efficiency, and compliance with international standards. Furthermore, growing awareness of energy conservation and environmental sustainability is prompting organizations to invest in innovative, code-compliant, and technologically advanced solutions. The Middle East and Africa emergency lighting industry is driven by the increasing government investments in infrastructure modernization as part of broader economic diversification and urban development strategies.
Projects such as Saudi Arabia’s NEOM, the UAE’s Etihad Rail, Egypt’s New Administrative Capital, and Kenya’s Konza Technopolis demonstrate how national visions are materializing into complex, mixed-use urban ecosystems. These projects demand comprehensive fire and life safety solutions that meet evolving regulatory frameworks, positioning emergency lighting systems as essential to achieving compliance, operational continuity, and occupant safety.
Moreover, the ongoing transformation is not limited to high-profile megaprojects. Across urban and peri-urban areas, there is a steady demand for resilient building systems in sectors such as transportation, hospitality, logistics, education, and retail. As a result, developers, contractors, and consultants are increasingly integrating emergency lighting in the early stages of architectural and engineering planning. These systems are required not only to meet fire codes but also to support advanced building functions such as smart evacuation protocols, centralized control, and low-maintenance diagnostics, especially in high-occupancy or high-risk structures.
