Increasing Demand for Non-Contact Sensor Based Thermometers to Drive Growth
Infrared sensors-based thermometers facilitate precise non-contact temperature measurement in healthcare applications. The primary form of applications for this type of thermometer includes measuring forehead temperature, ear temperature, or skin temperature. The temperature detecting element comprises numerous thermocouples on a silicon chip to measure an object's infrared energy. Moreover, with the increasing cases of Covid-19, social distancing norms are strictly followed in several organizations and even in various residential societies. This factor has led to a surge in demand for non-contact infrared sensor-based thermometers across the globe. Thus, to meet the potential demand for thermometers, several companies opt for inorganic strategic partnerships to manufacture digital infrared thermometers. For instance, in April 2020, Shoppemex announced its latest product launch, an infrared digital thermometer that can deliver ultra-fast body and surface temperature readings without contact.
Increasing Technological Advancements in Temperature Monitoring Devices to Propel Market Growth
Increasing demand for temperature monitoring systems across the globe, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, has augmented the growth of this market. Several companies have manufactured digital thermometers for precise and accurate body temperature measurements due to the growing demand for such devices. These devices are incorporated with novel technologies to eliminate fluctuated readings and minimize errors coupled with better user handling facilities. Such developments are projected to hike the thermometers market during the forecast period. For instance, in February 2020, Xiaomi announced the launch of a new non-contact infrared thermometer. The device can take the temperature reading in just one second with a measuring accuracy of 0.2 degrees.
Launch of Cutting-edge Temperature Monitoring Products to Bolster Market Development
The introduction of novel temperature monitoring products is expected to have a significant impact on the healthcare industry. For instance, in May 2020, French brand ZOOOK, a pioneer in innovative consumer technology products, announced the launch of a contactless thermometer developed as per the requirements in the wake of COVID-19. These factors may drive the temperature monitoring system market growth.
High Contamination Risks Associated with Mercury-based Thermometers May Limit Growth
Despite the high demand for thermometers globally, certain factors are limiting the temperature management market growth. Among them is the risk of mercury poisoning from mercury-based thermometers. The silver ball in the thermometer is very toxic to humans if the glass of the device breaks or is not cleaned correctly. Therefore, due to the high risk associated with the contact thermometers, individuals are less likely to adopt the contact thermometers, resulting in market growth limitations.
