Temperature sensors are expected to witness tremendous growth in the next five years as they are widely used across different application segments. Currently, the market is dominated by contact type sensors such as thermocouples and RTDs; however, a strong competition between contact and noncontact temperature sensing technologies is expected in the coming years. Non-contact temperature sensors are dominated by IR temperature sensors and increasingly used in high-temperature applications. IR sensing is highly recommended in the food & beverage industry, plastic industry, and metal industry, among others.
Due to improved sensitivity, temperature sensors are used in various applications, such as petrochemicals, automotive segments, consumer electronics, computer peripherals, space applications, and industrial segment. There is a significant rise in demand for consumer electronic devices that use microprocessors, such as smartphones, media players, cameras, and gaming devices. The acceptance of non-contact temperature sensors in many application segments is expected to add on to their consumption in the coming years. Safety-related mandates in Europe are acting as a major driver to the growth of the European temperature sensor market. Technological advancements are leading to new opportunities in the temperature sensor market in Europe, mainly with regard to the petrochemicals industry.
The value of the Europe temperature sensor market in 2013 was $788 million and is expected to reach $1.01 billion by 2018, at a CAGR of 5% from 2013 to 2018. In terms of volume, 535 million temperature sensors were shipped in 2013 and the number is expected to reach 888 million by 2018.
The temperature sensor market in Europe is triggered due to a lot of factors, such as vehicle production in emerging markets, increasing government intervention, availability of strong aftermarket, and continuous demand from consumer electronics and computing peripherals. The competition within the technologies, pricing, and maturity of critical end-user segments are the major restraints to the market growth. Technological advancements and emergence of the MEMS technology in temperature sensing are the future opportunities for temperature sensors in Europe.
