Pressure Sensors Industry - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2025 - 2030)

The pressure sensors market size is valued at USD 19.93 billion in 2025 and is forecast to reach USD 31.18 billion by 2030, advancing at a 9.37% CAGR.

Strong demand stems from electrified power-train control, smart-factory retrofits, and disposable medical devices that require precise pressure monitoring for safety and efficiency. Electrification mandates in Asia-Pacific are accelerating adoption of high-accuracy barometric sensors in xEV battery-thermal systems, while Industry 4.0 upgrades across Europe and North America favor wireless nodes that cut installation cost. Medical device miniaturization, especially in cardiovascular catheters, is opening a sizeable opportunity for single-use MEMS designs that meet sterilization standards. At the same time, harsh-environment exploration-such as LNG carrier fleets-creates premium demand for silicon-carbide and optical technologies capable of surviving >175 °C process lines. Competitive intensity is rising: incumbents embed AI engines at the edge to defend margins, whereas Chinese white-label MEMS foundries scale volume and depress average selling prices.

Global Pressure Sensors Industry Market Trends and Insights

Rapid electrification of xEV power-train control systems driving high-accuracy barometric sensing

Electric vehicles use precision barometric sensors to detect cell swelling and manage heat, avoiding thermal runaway events that can cost OEMs up to USD 3,000 per vehicle. Sensor suppliers are hardening designs for >175 °C operation because silicon-carbide traction inverters will reach 50% penetration by 2027. Automotive demand is strongest in China, Japan, and South Korea where gigafactory capacity and government subsidies intersect to accelerate adoption.

Expansion of smart-factory retrofits boosting wireless sensor node demand

European and North American manufacturers are layering LoRaWAN and NB-IoT pressure nodes onto legacy equipment to enable predictive maintenance; low-power wide-area connections are forecast to exceed 3.5 billion by 2030. Assembly lines such as WIKA's gauge facility now incorporate more than 10,000 sensor variants in a single automated cell. Retrofit projects prioritize battery-powered nodes to avoid expensive conduit runs, a key factor behind the 12.8% CAGR in wireless uptake.

ASP erosion from Chinese white-label MEMS foundries

Firms such as MEMSensing posted 28.8%-36.85% revenue growth in 2024 while still running at a loss, underscoring aggressive pricing tactics that compress margins for global incumbents. Western vendors answer by pivoting toward high-temperature silicon-carbide and AI-enabled packages.

Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

1. Mandatory tyre-pressure monitoring adoption waves in India & ASEAN two-wheelers
2. Accelerated rollout of 5G mmWave radios requiring precision thermo-mechanical pressure control
3. Fragmented wireless protocol landscape inflating integration cost

Segment Analysis

Wired devices retained 72% revenue in 2024 due to deterministic data delivery in power-rich settings such as engine control units and surgical theaters. However, wireless nodes will outpace with a 12.8% CAGR as factories retrofit to Industry 4.0. Smart Control retrofit kits cut installation expense by 40% while enabling predictive shutdowns for pressure vessels. Power-over-Ethernet upgrades are keeping wired sensors relevant by multiplexing power and data on a single line. Wireless nodes leverage energy harvesting and edge compute, allowing placement on rotating shafts or sealed chambers once considered unreachable.

Absolute designs held 46% share in 2024 because manifold pressure, weather logging, and drone altimetry require vacuum-referenced readings. Differential units will see a 10.4% CAGR thanks to HVAC retrofits and filtration monitoring in cleanrooms. Recent wet-etch silicon fabrication pushed sensitivity to 5.07 mV/V/MPa with 0.67% FS linearity. Gauge units remain staple devices in hydraulics but exhibit only mid-single-digit growth.

The Pressure Sensors Market Report is Segmented by Type of Sensor (Wired, Wireless), Product Type (Absolute, Differential, Gauge), Technology (Piezoresistive, Electromagnetic, Optical, Capacitive, Resonant Solid-State, and More), Application (Automotive, Medical, Industrial, Aerospace and Defense, HVAC, and More), and Geography. The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Value (USD).
