Global Environmental Sensor Market By Type (Temperature, Gas, Humidity, Pressure, and Others), By End User (Commercial, Residential, Government & Public Utilities, Automotive, Industrial, and Others), By Regional Outlook, Industry Analysis Report and Forecast, 2021 - 2027

The Global Environmental Sensor Market size is expected to reach $2.3 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 8.4% CAGR during the forecast period.

Environmental sensors are used to measure, monitor, and record variables like humidity, temperature, and heat loss in the environment. Air pollution monitoring, consumer electronics, smart homes, and other gadgets all employ environmental sensors. With expenditures directed in R&D, and testing toward the environmental sensor, the environmental sensors sector is predicted to create moderate income in the next years. Environmental sensors, on the other hand, are nearing maturity and are projected to provide moderate revenue for important companies in the future.

COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19's continued expansion has become one of the world's most serious economic risks, bringing widespread anxiety and economic suffering for consumers, businesses, and communities throughout the world. The new normal, which includes social isolation and working from home (WFH), has produced difficulties with daily activities, routine work, requirements, and supplies, resulting in missed prospects and delayed projects. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a global influence on society and the economy. The outbreak's impact on the supply chain has been growing day by day. This has caused stock market uncertainty, as well as lowered corporate confidence, hindered supply chains, and heightened customers worry.

Market Growth Factors:

Usage in the industrial and manufacturing sectors

A sensor is equipment that uses modern wireless technology to perceive its surroundings and transmit real-time data. Sensors are crucial in factories and automation because they connect different devices and systems and allow machines to interact in order to track systems and equipment. Sensors are categorized according to their appropriateness and use. Some sensors are mass-produced, while others are tailored to meet the needs of the customer. The medical, industrial, racing, aerospace, and agriculture industries all use sensors like location, pressure, light, flow, force, temperature, and ultraviolet (UV) sensors.

Strict environmental norms and ongoing advancements in IoT and cloud-based services

Pollution is a problem in cities and towns, and it is produced by the introduction of pollutants into the environment, which causes detrimental changes in the ecosystem. As people become more aware of the dangers posed by harmful gas emissions from various businesses, the usage of environmental sensors has become more regulated in keeping record of water and soil contamination. Various governments throughout the globe have enacted tight guidelines and laws encouraging the usage of environmental monitoring systems, which is driving the market for environmental sensors.

Market Restraining Factors:

Advanced sensor applications have strict performance requirements

Environmental sensor specifications vary depending on the application and technology employed. These sensors must meet strict size and power consumption standards in consumer electronics applications. Integrating many different sensors with consumer applications, like smartphones, becomes extremely challenging in such instances. In addition, if the industry or sector changes, the sensor's specifications alter as well. For example, gas sensing characteristics in the automobile sector differ from those in the oil and gas business; as a result, gas sensor quality standards in advanced applications become crucial.

Type Outlook

Based on Type, the market is segmented into Temperature, Gas, Humidity, Pressure, and Others. The Gas segment held a significant revenue share of the overall environmental sensor market in 2020. This is because toxic gases in the environment are also responsible for one out of every four deaths, and they have an impact on children’s health. In 2016, over 7 million people died as a result of indoor and outdoor pollution, making it the fourth leading cause of mortality worldwide. As a result, current structures, industries, officials, and institutes are well-equipped with effective and precise gas sensors.

End User Outlook

Based on End User, the market is segmented into Commercial, Residential, Government & Public Utilities, Automotive, Industrial, and Others. The Government and Public utilities segment garnered a significant revenue share of the overall environmental sensor market in 2020. This is due to increased concerns over extreme environmental conditions, which has led to governments in numerous nations pushing the establishment of weather monitoring sites. Increased demand for environmental sensors has resulted from the rise in weather monitoring stations in smart city initiatives in the government vertical, as a result of increased government programmes such as smart cities.

Regional Outlook

Based on Regions, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America, Middle East & Africa. The Asia Pacific emerged as the dominating region. This is due to factors such as the rising usage of smart devices in APAC, which paves the path for the increasing penetration of environmental sensors in these smart devices.
