Strategically placed heliports facilitate effectual disaster management. The heliports support the rapid deployment of security or disaster management forces in case of catastrophes, such as fire, earthquake, floods, and industrial accidents, preventing the loss of life and property. In calamity-struck areas, heliports are used as a base to supply food and water to the affected masses to perform rescue operations and deploy medical support. Furthermore, forest fires can be suppressed quickly with effective rotorcraft activities. Since a significant amount of water cannot be carried by helicopter from a distance, the heliports can be used to supply the necessary water reserve.
However, though the medical research institutes can accommodate all takeoff and landing operations with one helipad, hospitals are expected to maintain several helipads to accommodate multiple air ambulances based on medical emergencies and patient capacity. Thus, such factors are expected to increase the demand for heliport lights, which will propel the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft is still a concept undergoing rapid development and witnessing huge investments. eVTOL aircraft is aimed at providing on-demand transportation and minimizing long commutes due to heavy traffic and urbanization in populated areas. The landing and takeoff area for these aircraft is termed as vertiport and is the same as a heliport. An eVTOL aircraft has eight lift rotors for vertical takeoff and a cruise propeller and wing to transition to high-speed forward cruise. The aircraft uses fully electric motors for operation, which almost eliminates emissions and noise pollution, offering a quieter flight.
The expansion of the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft market is anticipated to be driven by several factors. One such factor is the assumed greater flight efficiency of eVTOL aircraft compared to multi-copter aircraft. This efficiency is expected to result in increased usage of heliports by both eVTOL aircraft and helicopters. Consequently, the demand for heliport lighting is projected to surge, as regular heliport operations become more commonplace. The implementation of smart airport lighting is a noteworthy development in this context. These advanced lighting solutions optimize energy consumption and enhance safety by automatically adjusting lighting levels based on real-time traffic data. The integration of eVTOL aircraft into the aviation landscape, coupled with the adoption of smart airport lighting systems, is poised to significantly boost the growth of the heliport lighting market during the forecast period.

Moreover, the flight capability for eVTOL aircraft is assumed to be more efficient than a multi-copter aircraft. The regular use of heliports by helicopters or eVTOL aircraft will lead to an increase in demand for heliport lighting in the future. Thus, the above-mentioned factors are expected to increase the demand for heliport lighting, which will propel the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the LED lighting segment will be significant during the forecast period. LED lighting technology and smart lighting is witnessing growth in the global heliport lighting market because of attributes such as enhanced lifespan compared to traditional lighting, energy efficiency, no emission of heat even on longer time periods of usage, and compact building providing design flexibility.

The LED segment was the largest and was valued at USD 58.22 million in 2018. A major driver for the growth of the LED segment is the increasing construction of new heliports. For example, in India, under the RCS-UDAN scheme, 59 airports, including two water aerodromes and five heliports, were revived/operationalized as of July 20, 2021. This facility rooftop concrete helipad was replaced with the FEC Heliport aluminum Helomat system. As part of the upgrade, an advanced helideck lighting system was installed that included the company latest system, PAD-Star, which features night vision goggle compatibility for improved safety and the functionality of flashing sequenced lead-in lights.
The incorporation of a remote lighting controller in heliport lighting systems, allowing air-to-ground control, is a significant advancement. This innovation, combined with the implementation of new LED hooded perimeter floodlighting, is anticipated to boost the appeal of LED lighting in the global heliport lighting market. The advantages of LED lighting, such as energy efficiency and longevity, will further propel its growth during the forecast period. Additionally, the automotive lighting market has embraced LED technology due to its numerous benefits, including reduced power consumption and improved light quality. This trend is expected to influence the heliport lighting market positively, as the demand for energy-efficient and technologically advanced lighting solutions continues to increase.
Based on application, the market has been segmented into civil and military. The civil segment will account for the largest share of this segment.? Civil heliports serve a wide range of purposes, including transportation, emergency services, and recreational activities. The demand for heliport lighting systems in the civil segment is driven by various factors, such as increasing air traffic, safety regulations, and the need for efficient operations in urban areas. Recreational heliports are another significant component of the civil segment. These heliports are often located in tourist destinations or private properties to cater to helicopter tours, aerial photography, and other recreational activities. Heliports in this segment need to provide an enjoyable and safe experience for passengers. This includes having well-designed and aesthetically pleasing lighting systems that enhance the overall ambiance and visibility at heliport facilities. Thus, the above-mentioned advantages are expected to increase the demand for heliport lighting in the civil segment, which will propel the growth of the civil segment in the global heliport lighting market during the forecast period.

North America is estimated to contribute 32% to the growth by 2028. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends, drivers, and challenges that are expected to shape the market during the forecast period. Heliports have been in use in the US for more than 70 years, and the current number is significantly greater than that of the second-largest heliport-operating country in the world. The heliport lighting market in North America is expected to grow due to the increase in helicopter passenger traffic and growth in heli-tourism, compelling heliport authorities to focus on expanding the current capacity of heliports, along with the construction of new heliports. The US is one of the busiest commercial aviation countries in the world. New York and Los Angeles have the highest number of operational heliports in the US. Most of these heliports are used by helicopters for medical purposes; general aviation like corporate, tourism, and airport feeders; and other services like firefighting, law enforcement agencies, and personal use.
In addition, Downtown Manhattan Heliport in New York City is among the oldest heliports in the world, primarily focusing on tourism services. Along with the luxury tourism and medical industries projecting an upward curve, the heliports market in the US is expected to boost the regional heliport lighting market during the forecast period.
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the regional heliport lighting market. However, in 2021, the initiation of mass vaccination drives by the governments of the US, Canada, and Mexico slowed down the spread of the pandemic. This resulted in the lifting of lockdown restrictions and the relaxation of quarantine regulations. The manufacturing units of heliport lighting systems also reopened with the resumption of the disrupted supply chains. The increase in public interaction in the aviation industry post-2022 will lead to an increase in demand for heliport lighting systems. All these factors will boost the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
