The global radiation detection, monitoring, and safety market stood at a value of around USD 3.39 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.73% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a value of nearly USD 6.50 Billion by 2034.
Growing Demand for Gas-Filled Detectors to Bolster the Growth of the Radiation Detection, Monitoring, and Safety Industry
Based on detection type, the gas-filled detectors segment accounts for a significant share in the market and is anticipated to witness a healthy growth in the forecast period. Gas-filled detectors provide a good response to gamma radiation and the overall dose reading by the product is accurate. Over the forecast period, the growing application of gas-filled detectors in Geiger-Muller counter, ionisation chamber, and proportional counter is likely to drive the segment’s growth. Additionally, gas-filled detectors are cheap, portable, durable, user-friendly, and are capable of measuring high radiation rates. These factors are expected to provide a further impetus to the market in the coming years.
The growing application of radiation detection, monitoring, and safety instruments in hospitals is driving the market growth. This can be attributed to the growing concerns about the safety and security of patients, doctors, and healthcare staff. In addition to this, the rising healthcare expenditure in the emerging economies is likely to augment the market in the forecast period. Meanwhile, the market growth is anticipated to be bolstered by the increasing development of nuclear plants and nuclear weapons, among others. This factor is likely to propel the demand for radiation detection devices in non-hospital applications in the forecast period.
