Humidity Sensor Market Size:

The humidity sensor Market is expected to grow from USD 1.550 billion in 2025 to USD 2.336 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 8.55%.

A humidity sensor, often known as a hygrometer, is a type of electrical equipment that detects, measures, and detects the amount of moisture in the air. The sensor is made up of metallic plates with non-conductive polymer sheets and electrodes made of metals like silver, platinum, and gold. Capacitive, mirror-based, solid, resistive, and thermal sensors are some of the most prevalent types. They are employed in tight spaces, soil, semiconductors, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to detect humidity.

 These sensors can survive extreme temperatures and require little maintenance. As a result, they are widely employed in a variety of sectors, including chemical, automotive, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage. Therefore, the primary reason for the market's growth is due to its end-user applications for various industry verticals.

Humidity Sensor Market Driver:

  • The end-user applications for several industries will drive the market to surge  

Humidity sensors can be used for a diverse range of industries for specific uses. Due to the rise of those industries, the market is anticipated to rise in the upcoming years. For instance, the growing popularity of precision agriculture, which incorporates cutting-edge technology into crop production, is fueling a slew of research and development (R&D) efforts to improve the effectiveness of humidity sensors. The development of smart humidity sensors that can correctly and precisely assess moisture content while processing and delivering massive amounts of data is expected to accelerate the expansion of the humidity sensor market. Additionally, companies have launched products that have also been beneficial for the market’s growth. For instance, in May 2020 the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) announced the development of humidity sensor technology that uses molybdenum sulfide (MoS2), an inorganic compound consisting of molybdenum and sulfur, to detect moisture such as human perspiration or tidal volume with great sensitivity. The humidity sensor has a more than 66,000 percent sensitivity, which is the world's greatest. It is more than 660 times more than the existing available sensors.

Humidity Sensor Market Geographical Outlook:

  • Asia Pacific accounts for a substantial amount of share in the market

With the rise of several industry verticals in this region, the market for humidity sensors is projected to grow. Companies in this region have plans to launch innovative products that will surge the market in the coming years. For instance, NGK Insulators, a Japanese ceramics business, intends to introduce new sensors by 2023, allowing wine growers, shippers, and dealers to closely monitor wine shipments for alterations in the environment that might impair quality. The test will track the temperature and humidity of wine shipped from Italy to Japan for around 60 days. Any temperature or humidity anomaly will be displayed on the sensor's electronic paper display. In April, NGK began developing a wine temperature and humidity management system in collaboration with the Japanese subsidiary of Taiwanese liquid crystal display panel producer Innolux, wine trading business ENJI Japan, and Cold Storage Japan, a logistics materials developer. In January, the four firms conducted a pilot test in which they collected 130 continuous hours of temperature and humidity data within a wine cellar.
