The growth in the historic period can be attributed to regulatory compliance, industrialization and urbanization, pollution control, occupational safety, environmental awareness.

The environmental testing equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.87 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emerging contaminants, infrastructure development, land use and land cover changes, climate change monitoring, public health preparedness. Major trends in the forecast period include iot integration, portable and field-deployable devices, data visualization and big data analytics, smart sensors and wearables, high-resolution remote sensing.

The environmental testing equipment market is experiencing significant growth due to the escalating levels of environmental pollution globally. Factors such as rapid industrialization, urbanization, wildfires, transportation, construction, and deforestation have led to an increase in environmental pollution. Governments worldwide are investing in environmental testing equipment to monitor changes in air, water, and soil pollution continuously. This investment supports the implementation of innovative policies to address environmental challenges based on insights gained from testing activities. For example, Eurostat reported that the total general government expenditure on environmental protection in the European Union was approximately $125.84 billion (€119 billion), constituting 0.8% of the EU's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This underscores the growing need for environmental testing equipment to address the rising levels of environmental pollution.

The increasing industrial activities are expected to drive the growth of the environmental testing equipment market in the future. Industrial activities encompass the various processes and operations involved in the large-scale production, manufacturing, and processing of goods and services. Environmental testing equipment used in industrial activities ensures compliance with environmental regulations, helps reduce pollution, and fosters sustainable and responsible production practices, thereby protecting the environment and public health. For example, in October 2023, the Federal Reserve Board, a U.S.-based government agency, reported a 0.3% increase in industrial production in the U.S. in September, with an annual growth rate of 2.5% in the third quarter. Furthermore, manufacturing output also rose by 0.4% for the same month. Consequently, the rising industrial activities are fueling the growth of the environmental testing equipment market.

A key trend in the environmental testing equipment market is technological advancement. Leading companies in the market are focused on delivering technologically advanced solutions to meet the evolving demands of end-customers and enhance their global market position. In February 2023, Thermo Fisher Scientific, a prominent biotechnology company, introduced two new wet chemistry analyzers - Thermo Fisher Scientific's Aqua Master discrete analyzers and The Gallery Aqua Master discrete analyzers. These analyzers cater to various applications, including soil analysis, drinking water analysis, and wastewater and sewage water analysis. The integration of advanced technology in environmental testing equipment reflects the industry's commitment to providing accurate and efficient solutions for environmental monitoring and analysis.

Leading companies in the environmental testing equipment market are strategically focusing on the introduction of cost-effective testing solutions to gain a competitive advantage. One such example is EnviroMate, a compact and budget-friendly benchtop environmental chamber tailored for inhaler testing. Copley Scientific Limited, a UK-based laboratory equipment manufacturer, unveiled EnviroMate in September 2022. This specialized chamber ensures stable and precise environmental conditions, contributing to reliable and accurate results in inhaler testing. The chamber's design emphasizes cost-efficiency and user-friendliness, making it well-suited for deployment in research facilities and laboratories. EnviroMate's capability to control critical factors such as temperature, relative humidity, and electrostatics enhances its effectiveness in inhaler testing.

In a strategic move to bolster its presence in environmental testing, Eurofins Scientific SE, a France-based testing laboratory company, acquired IESPM Group in April 2022. This acquisition enhances Eurofins Scientific SE's capabilities in environmental testing and broadens its service offerings in oil analysis and research. IESPM Group, based in France, is recognized for its expertise in providing oil analysis solutions and environmental testing equipment. The acquisition reflects Eurofins Scientific SE's commitment to expanding its portfolio and strengthening its position in the dynamic environmental testing market.
