Air Quality Sensors Global Market Report 2024

The air quality sensors market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.83 billion in 2023 to $5.27 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9%. The historical growth can be attributed to the emergence of smart cities, public awareness campaigns, expansion of industrial activities, increased awareness about health hazards, and advances in sensor technology.

The air quality sensors market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of air quality sensors, ongoing development of smart cities, rapid urbanization, increased focus on air pollution control measures, and rising concerns about climate change. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of IoT technology, a growing demand for low-cost air quality sensors, an increase in concerns about indoor air pollution, integration with smart home systems, and a rise in adoption in automotive applications.

The rise in airborne diseases and related fatalities is expected to drive the growth of the air quality sensors market moving forward. Airborne diseases are those caused by bacteria or viruses that spread primarily through tiny respiratory droplets. Factors contributing to the growth of airborne diseases include higher population density, international travel, migration, and the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant strains. Air quality sensors play a crucial role in detecting concentrations of airborne pollutants, as they are designed to identify and display levels of specific pollutants such as particulate matter (PM) within indoor environments. For instance, in November 2023, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported an 18% increase in estimated measles cases and a 43% increase in estimated deaths in 2022 compared to the previous year. Consequently, the rising number of airborne diseases and fatalities is fueling the expansion of the air quality sensors market.

Key players in the air quality sensors market are concentrating on developing advanced solutions such as outdoor air quality monitoring platforms to gain a competitive advantage. These platforms encompass comprehensive systems integrating various air quality sensors, data collection methods, and analysis tools to continuously monitor and evaluate ambient air quality in specific locations or larger geographical areas. For example, in March 2023, Attune Inc. launched an air quality monitoring (OAQ) kit, a sensor-based platform for outdoor air quality monitoring. This versatile technology solution with multiple sensors detects various outdoor air pollutants such as temperature, humidity, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter (PM0.3-1.0, PM2.5, PM10), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). The platform is customizable based on specific customer requirements.

In January 2022, Marston Holdings acquired Vortex IoT for an undisclosed amount, aiming to enhance its offerings with complementary air quality and acoustic monitoring solutions. This acquisition enables Marston to improve awareness, pinpoint pollution hotspots, and advance public health through comprehensive monitoring solutions. Vortex IoT specializes in manufacturing air quality sensors.

Air quality sensors are devices designed to measure the concentration of pollutants and other harmful particles present in the air. They detect a range of pollutants, including particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide, providing real-time data that aids in monitoring air quality levels and supporting environmental assessment and management efforts.

The primary categories of air quality sensors include signal-gas monitoring systems and multi-gas monitoring systems. Signal-gas monitoring systems are technologies that detect and measure specific gases or chemical compounds in the air, typically utilized for safety or environmental monitoring purposes. In terms of portability, there are various types such as portable air quality sensors and fixed air quality sensors, both used for monitoring different pollutants such as chemicals, particulate matter, and biological agents. These sensors find application across various sectors, including government agencies, petrochemical industries, power plants, and residential areas.
