Carbon Dioxide Monitoring Equipment Market Report 2026

The carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.92 billion in 2025 to $4.36 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing workplace safety regulations, early adoption of ndir co₂ sensors, rising awareness of indoor air pollution, increased monitoring in industrial processes, expansion of environmental compliance requirements.

The carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.6 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for real-time air quality monitoring, growth of smart agriculture applications, increasing integration of co₂ sensors in hvac systems, stricter building ventilation norms, rising consumer adoption of indoor air quality devices. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of high-accuracy co₂ measurement for safety compliance, increasing deployment of portable co₂ monitoring devices, growing preference for multi-parameter air quality monitoring solutions, rising use of co₂ monitoring in agricultural and greenhouse environments, expanding installation of fixed co₂ monitors in industrial and commercial sites.

The rising environmental concerns are expected to drive the growth of the carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market in the coming years. Environmental concerns refer to issues caused by human or natural activities that negatively impact air, water, soil, ecosystems, and the overall sustainability of the planet. These concerns are intensifying due to population growth, which increases resource demand, generates more waste, and puts additional strain on ecosystems. Carbon dioxide monitoring equipment addresses these concerns by measuring and tracking CO₂ levels in the air or industrial processes, enabling timely actions to reduce emissions, improve air quality, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations. For example, in December 2023, the School of Sustainability at Stanford University, a US-based university, reported that global carbon dioxide emissions were expected to exceed 40 billion tons in 2023, including nearly 37 billion tons from fossil fuels, representing a 1.1% increase compared to 2022 levels. Therefore, rising environmental concerns are driving the growth of the carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market.

Key companies in the carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market are focusing on developing advanced products, such as photovoltaic CO₂ monitors, to enhance detection accuracy, energy efficiency, and real-time monitoring capabilities. Advanced photovoltaic CO₂ monitors use light-based photovoltaic technology to accurately detect CO₂ levels with high sensitivity and low power consumption. For instance, in October 2024, Reef Technologies, a US-based digital solutions company, launched AIR-sense-IQ, an advanced photovoltaic CO₂ monitor powered by Epishine’s printed organic indoor solar cells. This device continuously monitors indoor carbon dioxide levels without the need for external power or battery replacements by harvesting energy from indoor lighting, making it highly efficient and maintenance-free. AIR-sense-IQ alerts users when CO₂ levels rise, promoting optimal air quality and comfort, particularly in office environments.

In October 2024, ABB Ltd., a Switzerland-based technology company, acquired the Födisch Group for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, ABB Ltd. aims to expand and strengthen its portfolio in continuous emission monitoring systems (CEMS) and advanced measurement technologies, improving its ability to help industries tackle complex environmental and sustainability challenges worldwide. Födisch Group is a Germany-based manufacturer of carbon dioxide monitoring equipment.

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.

Tariffs are influencing the carbon dioxide monitoring equipment market by increasing the cost of imported sensor modules, microelectronics, and calibration components, thereby raising overall production and procurement expenses. These impacts are most pronounced in industrial and commercial segments, especially in regions like Asia-Pacific and Europe where manufacturing relies heavily on global supply chains. However, tariffs are also pushing manufacturers to localize production, diversify sourcing, and accelerate development of cost-efficient monitoring technologies, creating opportunities for domestic suppliers.
