Growing concerns about indoor air quality are expected to drive the growth of the air quality control system market. Indoor air quality (IAQ) refers to the condition of the air inside buildings and other structures, particularly in relation to how it affects the health and comfort of occupants. Air quality control systems provide comprehensive solutions to enhance IAQ by removing pollutants, regulating ventilation, controlling humidity, and improving overall indoor environmental quality. For example, in April 2023, the American Lung Association, a US-based professional organization, reported that 119.6 million Americans, or nearly 36% of the population, live in areas with poor ozone or particle pollution ratings. Therefore, the increasing concerns regarding indoor air quality are expected to drive the growth of the air quality control system market.

Key players in the air quality control system market are concentrating on developing products featuring advanced technologies, such as integrating smart IoT solutions into AQCS systems, to enhance their market position. Internet of Things (IoT) solutions utilize data collected by IoT devices, leveraging data from single or multiple sensors to uncover diverse insights. For instance, in March 2023, Siemens AG, a German automation and digitalization company, introduced the Connect Box through its subsidiary Siemens Smart Infrastructure (SI). The Connect Box, part of the Siemens Xcelerator line, is an open-source, user-friendly IoT solution designed to manage small to medium-sized buildings. It provides an intuitive method for monitoring building performance, significantly improving indoor air quality and maximizing energy efficiency in settings such as apartments, retail stores, schools, and small offices by up to 30%.

In June 2024, ENVEA, a France-based provider of environmental management solutions and instrumentation for industries, acquired Asia Pacific Air Quality Group (APAQ Group) for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition aims to bolster ENVEA's presence in Asia, complementing its existing product portfolio and expanding its customer base. Asia Pacific Air Quality Group is a Singapore-based company specializing in air quality services, offering planning, consultancy, and integration solutions for ambient air and emission analyzer systems.

An air quality control system, also known as an air pollution control system, is a system, apparatus, or piece of equipment primarily designed to reduce or completely eliminate the release of air pollutants into the environment. Such systems are utilized for tracking climate change, monitoring air quality, identifying pollutant sources, and supporting research and development efforts.

The primary product types of air quality control systems include indoor and ambient systems. Indoor air quality control systems are integrated mechanical and electronic solutions developed to regulate ventilation, filtration, humidity, and contaminant levels to ensure acceptable indoor air conditions for human health and comfort. These systems manage a variety of pollutants, including gases, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), dust, and other airborne contaminants. They are extensively used in applications such as tunnels, air terminals, underground garages, public transportation stations, automobiles, and air pollution control facilities. Indoor air quality control systems cater to a wide range of industries, including powertrain management, energy and power, mining, agriculture, semiconductors, medical and pharmaceutical, commercial and residential buildings, transportation, and other end-user industries.

The air quality control system market consists of sales of selective catalytic reduction (SCR), electrostatic precipitator (ESP), flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system, and fabric filters. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is, the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers.
