Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Market Size:

The Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Market is expected to grow from US$22.533 billion in 2025 to US$33.497 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 8.25%.

Non-destructive testing is a wide group of techniques used for the analysis in science and technology while minimizing the damage caused to any Testing Method, Service Type, and End-User Industry.

Escalating costs of machine failures in several end-use industries is the key driver of this market. The rising complexity of machines and equipment, stringent government regulations regarding workers’ safety, tight quality control requirements, and strict product usage specifications are other important factors augmenting the demand for NDT equipment in various industries across the globe. By test method, visual inspection testing is the major contributor to this market as it is the most common process of detecting faults in different components of the machine or equipment. By end-user industry, power generation is expected to gain the fastest growth owing to a rising number of nuclear power plants and the subsequent increase in the demand for complex machines and equipment in those plants. Mushrooming demand for automation by various industry verticals is expected to drive the demand for NDT equipment in the near future. Furthermore, technological advancements leading to the miniaturization of test equipment will propel the market growth during the forecast period.

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Market Growth Drivers:

• Rising demands from the energy and power sector at a global level will drive the market during the forecast period

The growth of the Non-destructive testing (NDT) market is fuelled by its rising demand from the energy and power sector in recent years which is expected to continue during the forecast period as well.
