  • With a notable year-on-year increase in usage of air and liquid monitoring devices, Asia Pacific market for particle counters reflects high growth potential

Life Sciences & Medical Devices Industry Key Demand Generators for Particle Counter Market

The analysis of global particle counter market based on demand generation, the life sciences & medical devices segment led in 2021 with around 42% revenue contribution to the market size. The dominance of the segment will prevail through the end of forecast period as demand consistently surges from medical/pharmaceutical facilities, hospitals, medical devices, and biotechnology sectors. Medical devices especially will exhibit higher demand generating potential in the wake of increasingly stringent regulations facing manufacturers that boost adoption of particle counters for superior product quality, safety, and integrity. The report also projects pharmaceuticals industry as an attractive category as it witnessed continued growth in R&D investments that subsequently point to the anticipated growth in demand for particle counters. Mounting demand from semiconductor industry is also expected to fuel the growth of particle counter market, suggests the report.

Portable Airborne Particle Counters Bestseller in Particle Counter Market

With more than 55% of the global particle counter market revenue, airborne particle counters were the top revenue contributor in 2021. The efficiency, and precision of airborne particle counters continues to be leveraged by end users as the emphasis on the significance of air particle testing grows. The air particle testing significantly depends on the accuracy, precision, and efficiency of airborne particle counters, which makes these machines the top-selling category in market. Moreover, innovations that are frequently being introduced in form of portable, remote, and handheld particle counters are further likely to uplift the growth of airborne particle counters segment. With more end users seeking ultra-high accuracy in air particle count and testing, particle counter market will remain on an uptrend.

North America Remains Dominant, Asia Pacific Turns Lucrative in Particle Counter Market

In 2021, North America led global particle counter market with nearly 1/3rd of the overall valuation. The trend will continue throughout the forecast period, spearheaded by the US that has the nationwide network of monitoring sites. In addition, the Clean Air Act, and the ambient air quality trends for particle pollution, i.e., Particulate Matter or PM that are set by EPA continue to create a favourable environment for maintenance of national air quality standards for PM. On the other side, the report also highlights Asia Pacific as a highly lucrative particle counter market. China, followed by India, remain the leaders in Asia Pacific, representing the most profitable pockets for investors on account of the notable demand generated by pharma industry, and R&D centres. Ascending cleanroom monitoring requirements further uphold the attractiveness of Asia Pacific particle counter market.
