The failure analysis market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The failure analysis market has shown strong growth in recent years. It is expected to rise from $4.86 billion in 2024 to $5.32 billion in 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%.
The growth can be attributed to the increasing complexity of products, stricter regulatory requirements, a growing focus on quality control, and rising demand for reliability engineering.
The failure analysis market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The failure analysis market is expected to experience steady growth, reaching $7.61 billion by 2029 with a CAGR of 9.3%.
This growth is attributed to the expansion of emerging industries, globalization of supply chains, and the increasing demand for predictive maintenance. Trends in the forecast period include medical device failure analysis, industry-specific solutions, collaboration and knowledge-sharing, and failure analysis in additive manufacturing.
The rise in automation adoption is expected to propel the growth of the failure analysis market. Automation improves efficiency and reduces human error in various industries. Failure analysis helps identify the root causes of system failures, ensuring that automated processes run smoothly. In May 2022, Rockwell Automation reported a 50% year-over-year growth in the adoption of smart factory technologies. Additionally, 74% of manufacturers were either using or planning to integrate these technologies. This trend in automation adoption is contributing to the growth of the failure analysis market.
