The global pH meters market accounted for USD 1.63 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 2.69 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 4.64% during the forecast period 2024-2034. The market will develop as a result of factors including tightening regulations, technological advancements, rising health consciousness, fast industrialization and urbanization, and a shift toward portable and handheld pH meters.
The use of handheld and portable pH meters is becoming more common because of their mobility, convenience, and user-friendliness - particularly in field applications including food safety testing, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. More lightweight and smaller pH meter designs are being driven by this change in consumer demand. For instance, in October 2022, the SevenGo Duo pro pH/conductivity meter was released. It is a portable solution with features made to be user-friendly for field measurements.
By Product, the benchtop pH meters segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global pH meters market in 2023 owing to the high precision and accuracy required in laboratory settings, coupled with the demand from industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and research institutes. For instance, HORIBA Advanced Techno Co., Ltd., a producer of automobile emission monitoring systems, and Mie University collaborated to introduce a novel device called a Gel-filled Self-Cleaning pH Electrode that employs antifoul technology in November 2022. Additionally, the portable pH meters segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for on-the-go pH measurement solutions in field applications such as environmental monitoring, agriculture, and food safety testing, coupled with advancements in portable technology and the convenience they offer.
By type, the digital pH meters segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global pH meters market in 2023 and is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the growing adoption of digital technology, which offers enhanced accuracy, ease of use, and advanced features such as automatic temperature compensation, data logging, and connectivity options, catering to diverse industry needs and driving market growth. For instance, Metrohm AG launched the tiamoTM titration software in September 2023, which features enhanced data visualization and analysis tools. It is used to manage data from a variety of Metrohm equipment, including pH meters.
By end-user, the pharmaceuticals and biotechnology segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global pH meters market in 2023 owing to the critical role of pH measurement in pharmaceutical and biotechnological processes, including drug formulation, quality control, and research, where precise pH monitoring is essential for ensuring product efficacy, safety, and regulatory compliance. For instance, Omega Engineering, Inc. introduced a new line of industrial-grade pH meters with increased corrosion resistance and longevity in December 2023. This meets the increasing need for accurate pH measurement in challenging settings. Additionally, the food science segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing focus on food quality and safety regulations, driving the need for pH measurement in food processing, preservation, and quality control applications, alongside advancements in food science research and development.
North American region is anticipated to have the highest revenue share during the forecast period owing to the strong presence of key players in the pH meters market, stringent regulatory standards, and high adoption rates across industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food processing, driving market growth in the region. Additionally, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the rapid industrialization, increasing investments in healthcare infrastructure, expanding pharmaceutical and chemical industries, and rising awareness about environmental conservation, driving the demand for pH meters across various sectors in the Asia Pacific region. For instance, Anton Paar GmbH introduced the new MultiMeter Pro in February 2024. It is a portable multiparameter meter that can measure pH and other water quality parameters. This demonstrates the tendency in portable meters toward multifunctionality.
This extensive research report concentrates on the size and projections of the global and regional markets from 2023 to 2034.
