The environmental testing equipment market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In the past few years, there has been a significant increase in the size of the environmental testing equipment market. It is projected to rise from $1.23 billion in 2024 to $1.32 billion in 2025, experiencing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%.
Key factors contributing to the growth over the historical period include regulatory compliance, industrialization and urbanization, pollution control measures, occupational safety measures, and heightened environmental awareness.
The environmental testing equipment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the near future, a robust augmentation is anticipated in the environmental testing equipment market size. With an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.0%, the market is projected to reach $1.87 billion in 2029.
Factors contributing to this rise during the upcoming prediction period include the emergence of new contaminants, development in infrastructure, alterations in land use and land cover, monitoring of climate change, and readiness in public health. The period is also expected to witness major advancements such as the integration of IoT, the advent of portable and on-site deployable apparatus, data depiction and extensive data analysis, smart sensors and wearables, along with high-resolution remote sensing.
The escalation in environmental pollution on a global scale plays a significant role in expanding the environmental testing equipment market. Accelerated industrialization and urbanization, wildfires, transportation, construction, and demonization have all impacted the increase in environmental pollution worldwide. To consistently track alterations in air, water, and soil pollution and formulate creative strategies to address these concerns, governments worldwide are spending on environmental testing equipment. For example, as documented by Eurostat, the Luxembourg-based European Union's statistical bureau, the overall government expenditure on environmental protection summed up to approximately $125.84 billion (€119 billion), equating to 0.8% of the EU's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Hence, the anticipated surge in demand for environmental testing tools during the projected period is attributed to the growing levels of environmental pollution.
