Weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment are utilized to determine the size, quantity, extent, area, or measurement of items available for sale or rent at a fixed price. Temperature monitoring systems are responsible for maintaining and regulating the temperature within a specific environment.
The primary categories of these devices and equipment consist of weight monitoring devices and temperature monitoring devices. Weight monitoring devices serve the purpose of measuring quantities, dimensions, or characteristics of items intended for distribution or consumption, whether for sale or rental. Temperature monitoring devices encompass tabletop temperature monitors, handheld temperature monitoring tools, wearable continuous monitoring thermometers, temperature sensors, and smart temperature patches. These tools find application in various settings, including hospitals, clinics, homes, and ambulatory surgical centers.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market statistics, including weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market share, detailed weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment industry. This weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.85 billion in 2024 to $6.23 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to maternal and neonatal health awareness, healthcare access, high-risk pregnancies, telemedicine and remote monitoring.
The weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.32 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emerging markets growth, personalized medicine, increased premature birth rates, value-based healthcare. Major trends in the forecast period include non-invasive monitoring, wearable and home monitoring devices, artificial intelligence (ai) and machine learning, data security and privacy.
The forecast of 7.5% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.5% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for medical-grade load cells and infrared thermopile sensors, sourced from key regions such as China and Italy, could lead to shortages in clinical monitoring equipment.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The increasing prevalence of obesity stands out as a significant driver in the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market. Notably, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that a staggering 1.9 billion adults worldwide are classified as overweight, along with more than 340 million children aged 5 to 19. Addressing the growing issue of obesity, weight monitoring devices play a crucial role by reminding users to maintain a healthy diet and monitor their exercise routines. This, in turn, spurs the demand for weight monitoring devices, ultimately fueling the growth of the market for weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment.
A rising demand for home healthcare services is anticipated to be a key factor driving the growth of the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market in the foreseeable future. Home healthcare involves the medical care provided to patients during recovery from illness, injury, surgery, or for managing chronic health conditions. Weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment play a vital role in home healthcare by helping individuals track their health and manage their specific medical needs. For instance, a report from the Rockefeller Institute of Government in August 2023 predicts a 25% increase in US home health and personal care aide positions, reaching 924,000 between 2021 and 2031. This surge in home healthcare services augments the growth of the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market.
The utilization of wearable technology is an emerging trend in the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market. Notably, prominent companies like Apple, Google, and Samsung are actively investing in the research and development of wearable devices. These wearables are equipped with advanced sensors that can measure and monitor body temperature and weight. Various innovative products have been introduced in the wearable category, such as Blue Spark's Temp Traq, a wearable temperature monitor, and Fitbit wearables designed to track and monitor weight.
Major companies in the weight monitoring and body temperature monitoring devices and equipment market are focused on developing innovative products, such as non-invasive temperature sensors, to measure temperature for a variety of applications. Non-invasive temperature sensors are designed to measure temperature without requiring any physical contact or penetration with the body or object being measured. For example, in June 2024, ABB Ltd., a Switzerland-based automation company, launched the NINVA temperature measurement device, designed to provide safer and more convenient temperature monitoring across multiple industries. The NINVA device has earned Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL2) certification, ensuring it meets stringent safety standards for critical applications. This certification makes the device suitable for use in high-risk industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.
