The reed switch device market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.65 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth in the automotive industry, increasing demand for reed switches in security systems and alarms, rising adoption of reed switches in robotics and automation, expanding electronics and communications sector, growing demand for reed switches in medical devices. Major trends in the forecast period include integration with advanced sensors to bring efficiency, new product launches or approval, technological advancements such as ferromagnetic reeds, ongoing research and innovation, increasing investments.
An upsurge in the number of electronic products is poised to drive the growth of the reed switch device market. Electronic products encompass devices with electronic circuits designed for controlling and manipulating electric current, converting it from one form to another, and capable of generating or emitting electromagnetic or sonic radiation. The escalating adoption of new technologies and digital transformation is fueling the proliferation of electronic products. Reed switches, utilized in electronics to open or close circuits in response to a magnetic field, find widespread application in security systems, reed relays, and proximity sensors. For instance, according to the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association in February 2024, consumer electronic equipment production surged to $201.91 million (¥31,685 million), up from $149.27 million (¥23,425 million) in January 2023. Hence, the increasing production of electronic products is expected to spur high demand for the reed switch device market.
Prominent companies in the reed switch device market are prioritizing the adoption of miniaturized and compact power components, such as subminiature flange-mount reed sensors, to remain competitive and cater to evolving consumer demands. Subminiature flange-mount reed sensors boast high sensitivity and reliability in detecting the presence or absence of a magnetic field. For example, in August 2023, Littelfuse Inc., a US-based electronic manufacturing company, introduced its latest offerings, the 59155 and 59156 series of subminiature flange-mount reed sensors. These sensors, typically featuring open contacts, can switch 120 Vac or 170 Vdc at 10 W. Their compact case design enables mounting with an M2 screw tightened to a maximum torque of 0.1 Nm or via adhesive mounting. These sensors find application in diverse fields, including factory automation, process equipment, security and access control, and primary and small appliances. Their advantages include contactless activation, customizable and space-saving design, high adjustability, and standard cable configurations.

A reed switch comprises two ferromagnetic blades, or reeds, enclosed in a glass tube. These reeds are positioned with a small gap between them. When an external magnetic field is introduced, the reeds either close to make contact or move apart, interrupting an electrical circuit. This mechanism facilitates the detection of magnetic fields, allowing for the activation or deactivation of electrical circuits without requiring direct mechanical contact.
Reed switch devices come in three main types normally open (A-type), normally closed (B-type), and changeover (C-type). In a normally open (A-type) reed switch, the switch remains open (non-conductive) in its default state when no magnetic field is present. These products are distributed through various channels such as direct sales and distributors. They find application in magnetic sensors, reed relays, reed switches, and reed sensors across diverse industry verticals including electronics, communication, automobiles, security, robotics and automation, marine and weather monitoring, the Internet of Things (IoT), and others.
