Temperature Controller Market Report 2025

This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The temperature controller market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.24 billion in 2024 to $1.27 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing use of packaged and processed food and beverages, increasing adoption of automation in various industries, expansion of the pharmaceutical industry, growing usage of temperature-sensitive medical devices and equipment, demand for temperature controllers in environmental control systems.

The temperature controller market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.4 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to development of communication capacity in temperature controllers, growing demand for heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, increasing demand for temperature-controlled storage and transportation, rising demand for temperature controllers in automotive manufacturing processes, adoption of temperature control systems in agriculture and horticulture. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of IoT (internet of things) technology, wireless connectivity, compact designs, cloud-based solutions, integration with supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.

The anticipated rise in the demand for packaged food and beverages is set to drive the growth of the temperature controller market in the future. Packaged foods and beverages refer to products that undergo manufacturing and packaging for convenient consumption. Temperature control plays a crucial role in the packaging and processing of these products, ensuring safety, quality, and extended shelf life by minimizing microbial growth, enzymatic reactions, and deterioration. This process preserves the integrity of packaged and processed food and beverages. For example, in October 2023, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), a Canada-based government department, reported that the exports of processed food and beverage products reached a historic high of $54.3 billion in 2022, showing a 14.1% increase from the previous year and constituting 34.7% of the total production value. Therefore, the growing demand for packaged and processed food and beverages is a key driver for the temperature controller market.

Prominent companies in the temperature controller market are concentrating on the development of innovative products, such as hot-runner temperature controllers, to enhance the efficiency and capabilities of their offerings. These controllers regulate and maintain precise temperatures in the hot runner system, ensuring optimal conditions for the injection molding process. For instance, in April 2022, PCS Company, a US-based provider of mold bases and mold components, introduced the TC50, a hot-runner temperature controller available in two configurations for six or 12 control zones. It features a 7-inch touch screen, self-diagnostics, zone slaving, mold memory, leak detection, and connectivity with injection presses for input/output functions. Additionally, it provides power balance detection and display, along with a group setup function, effectively coordinating the heating and cooling of nozzles and the manifold.

In June 2024, Thermal Technology Distribution Solutions (TTDS), a US-based supplier of temperature management products, acquired Thermal Devices for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enhances TTDS's portfolio by incorporating Thermal Devices' expertise in industrial electric heaters and temperature control solutions. Thermal Devices is a US-based company that specializes in the design, manufacture, and distribution of heating elements and other industrial electrical products.

The temperature controller market consists of sales of on/off temperature controllers, PID temperature controllers, programmable temperature controllers, industrial temperature controllers, and temperature control units. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.

The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD, unless otherwise specified).

A temperature controller serves as a device employed to manage the temperature of a system or process by comparing a sensor signal with a set point and adjusting the output accordingly. It functions as an instrument that ensures a desired temperature is maintained by overseeing heaters, cooling systems, or other related equipment.

Temperature controllers are primarily categorized into analog, digital, and hybrid types. Analog temperature controllers utilize analog electronic components to regulate temperature based on continuous voltage or current signals, offering precise real-time adjustments according to continuous sensor readings. This type is well-suited for applications requiring smooth control without digital discretization. End users, including those in oil and gas, plastics, food and beverage, automotive, chemicals, energy and power, and other sectors, utilize analog temperature controllers for temperature control and monitoring.
