Environmental sensors are devices designed to monitor the surrounding environment and furnish real-time data encompassing factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and rainfall. These sensors play a pivotal role in capturing, storing, analyzing, and precisely measuring crucial environmental data through the utilization of Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software.
The primary categories of environmental sensors include temperature, humidity, air quality, water quality, integrated, gas, chemicals, smoke, ultraviolet (UV), and soil moisture sensors. For instance, temperature sensors such as thermocouples are incorporated in the environmental sensor market to gauge temperature by assessing variations in electrical current resistance. These sensors find applications across diverse sectors such as smart home automation, factory automation, smart cities, automotive powertrain systems, energy harvesting, and more, catering to industrial, residential, commercial, automotive, government and public utilities, and various other end-users.

This environmental sensor market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The environmental sensor market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.77 billion in 2023 to $1.96 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the processes of industrialization, a growing consciousness regarding the environment, strict environmental regulations, governmental efforts towards pollution control, and escalating apprehensions related to climate change.
The environmental sensor market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.86 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to the uptake of wireless sensor networks, the proliferation of smart city initiatives, a focus on sustainable development, a heightened demand for real-time environmental monitoring, and increased investments in research and development of environmental sensors. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period involve the incorporation of artificial intelligence and machine learning in sensor data analysis, the expansion of wearable environmental sensors, a rising utilization of drone-based environmental monitoring, the creation of cost-effective sensor solutions, and an emphasis on achieving interoperability in sensor data.
The rapid integration of smart cities is poised to accelerate the growth of the environmental sensor market in the coming years. Smart cities, characterized by technologically advanced urban areas, utilize information and communication technology (ICT) to enhance operational efficiency, communicate information to the public, and improve public services and citizen well-being. Various environmental sensors are deployed in smart cities to gather electronic data on infrastructure and people, such as smart transportation systems offering traffic information and automatically processing toll payments, and smart energy systems minimizing downtime and damage to the electric grid. For example, as per the IMD Smart City Index (SCI) Report 2023 published by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD), the number of smart cities increased from 118 to 141 in 2021, marking a 20% growth since 2019. Consequently, the swift adoption of smart cities propels the environmental sensor market's growth.
The rising demand in the automotive industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the environmental sensor market in the future. The automotive industry encompasses activities related to the design, development, manufacturing, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles. Environmental sensors play a crucial role in the automotive sector, contributing to safety, efficiency, and comfort by providing essential data for various vehicle systems and features. For instance, data from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System reveals that total vehicle production in the United States increased to 11.77 million units in July 2023, up from 10.91 million units in June 2023. Consequently, the increasing demand in the automotive industry acts as a driving force for the growth of the environmental sensor market.
Product innovation stands out as a prominent trend gaining traction in the environmental sensor market. Leading companies in the environmental sensor sector are actively engaged in the development of new and enhanced products, incorporating additional features to bolster their market position. A case in point is Zebra Technologies Corporation, a US-based mobile computing company specializing in real-time sensing, analysis, and action. In April 2023, the company introduced a new line of environmental sensors, including the ZS300 sensor, ZB200 bridge, and the Android Sensor Discovery app. This innovative range aims to enhance visibility in sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare, with the ZB200 bridge facilitating seamless data transfer from multiple Zebra electronic sensors to the cloud for immediate access.
Major players in the environmental sensor market are strategically focusing on wireless sensor innovations to enhance their market share. Wireless environmental sensors are designed to measure and transmit data about various environmental conditions without the need for physical connections or wires. An example is the launch of the RICOH EH Environment Sensor D201/202 by the Japanese electronics manufacturer Ricoh Company Ltd. in September 2021. This sensor features battery-free operation, wireless connectivity (Bluetooth and Wi-Fi), and adaptability to diverse environments. Offering real-time monitoring and customizable alerts, it streamlines environmental management while contributing to digital transformation by eliminating manual recording and wiring.
In December 2022, Interlink Electronics Inc., a US-based computer hardware and technology company, completed the acquisition of the businesses of SPEC Sensors and KWJ Engineering for $2 million. This strategic move positions Interlink to expand its product offerings and resources in the US market. The acquisition also brings in valuable engineering expertise and patented technology in gas and environmental air quality sensors. SPEC Sensors LLC, a US-based high-performance gas sensor manufacturer, offers accurate measurements of pollutant gases, while KWJ Engineering Inc., also based in the US, specializes in gas, air, and environmental sensors for detecting and monitoring various gases and environmental pollutants.
