2025 United States PFAS Analytical Instrumentation Market

PFAS Federal Regulations Result in Double-Digit Growth

Double-digit growth is expected in the United States PFAS Analytical Instrumentation Market, with a CAGR of over 20% forecasted for the next 7 years. The market value was estimated at $190 million in revenue in 2024 and expected to surpass over $800 million by 2031.

“The push for advanced PFAS testing is driving a surge in analytical equipment innovation. With limited techniques currently available, major analytical instrument companies are heavily investing in next-generation solutions. This emerging market is poised for massive growth, as accurate detection becomes a cornerstone in addressing PFAS challenges," notes the Chief Research Officer.

Rising public concerns over PFAS contamination in water, linked to serious health risks, are driving demand for PFAS analytical instruments in the U.S. The growing public awareness and regulatory pressure are accelerating efforts to monitor and treat PFAS in drinking water. As a result, there is an increased need for precise testing solutions to ensure safe water quality standards are met.

In the highly price-sensitive U.S. PFAS Analytical Instrumentation Market, maintaining cost competitiveness is key to securing market share. Companies are increasingly optimizing backend operations, controlling costs rigorously, and balancing in-house manufacturing with outsourcing to achieve cost efficiency. Streamlining supply chains and strengthening supplier relationships are crucial for securing favorable terms and ensuring consistent supply.

Simultaneously, the timely availability of consumables is vital to maintain operational reliability and client trust. Leveraging AI and advanced software for accurate demand forecasting and implementing robust inventory management systems can prevent disruptions and avoid overstocking. By ensuring a steady supply of consumables, companies not only enhance client confidence but also position themselves as reliable leaders in a competitive market.

Prominent players in the market include Metrohm AG, Thermo Fisher, Agilent Technologies, Perkin Elmer, SCIEX, Waters Corporation, LECO Corporation, Bruker, Analytik Jena (Endress+Hauser), TE Instruments, and others.

Demand for the PFAS analytical instruments is currently dominated by commercial laboratories, as utilities face high instrument costs. Demand is also primarily fueled by large wastewater utilities in industrial areas and regulatory research needs, particularly after the implementation of EPA regulations. These regulations are expected to drive significant market growth as utilities adapt to comply with new standards.

However, academic demand for PFAS testing may plateau within 5-6 years, while demand from industrial facilities is poised for continued growth. These facilities are increasingly focusing on pre-treatment measures and stricter process controls to minimize PFAS discharge, further expanding the market. As regulatory pressures mount, industries will play a pivotal role in shaping the future landscape of PFAS testing.
