Global Particle Counters Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Particle Counters Market Analysis

The particle counters market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.5% over the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of comprehending respiratory virus transmission processes. The scientific community has demonstrated that short-range aerosol is an essential route of virus transmission. The challenge that particle counter manufacturers encountered was the characterization of the aerosol particles that carry the COVID-19 virus. The aerosol particles evaporate over time and, therefore, particle size changes. To avoid these challenges few companies have collaborated on particle counters. For instance, in November 2020, Particles Plus collaborated with AGS Consulting, LLC and NUMECA to develop an experimentally validated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of the flow field within a particle counter which might be helpful to face the challenges of a pandemic. Hence, with these types of collaborations the particle counter market has shown positive growth during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the market under study will eventually reach its full potential in industries because of vaccination campaigns and a decline in COVID-19 cases.

Manufacturing of pharmaceutical products may involve a lot of risk at contamination. One of the main types of contamination is fungus. The main cause is a lack of quality control, process management, and appropriate testing, which can result in diminished product integrity and shelf life. This can be present in the form of bioaerosols and hence requires monitoring of these facilities.

Furthermore, the technological advancements related to the product and increasing investments into research and development activities are expected to drive the market growth. For instance, in February 2020, Particle Measuring Systems developed a 20nm syringe sampler 'SLS' which will be used in batch sampling with the particle counter ' Chem 20 Particle Counter'. Therefore, the above stated factors are expected to fuel the particle counter market growth during the study period.

However, the high cost of systems is expected to restrain growth in the particle counters market during the forecast period of the study.

Particle Counters Industry Segmentation
