The global environmental sensor market was valued at US$ 1.7 Billion in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ 3.7 Billion by 2032 finds Future Market Insights (FMI) in a recent market survey. As per the findings, revenue through humidity sensors is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during 2022 – 2032.
In the environmental sciences, the usage of low-cost sensor networks (LCSNs) is growing in popularity, and the unparalleled monitoring data provided enables study across a wide range of fields and applications. Non-technical difficulties, in particular, continue to stymie the widespread development and deployment of LCSNs.
Environmental sensors monitor and keep track of soil and water pollution as public awareness of environmental concerns caused by harmful gas emissions from various industries has grown. Various governments throughout the world have enacted stringent rules and laws encouraging the usage of environmental surveillance systems, which is driving the market for environmental sensors.
Over the projected period, advanced technologies in the designing and engineering of individual sensors are anticipated to propel the market. Growing demand from the industrial as well as the agricultural sector is expected to push the growth of the market.

Some of the recent developments of the Environmental Sensor Market are:
- In October 2021, ABB introduced the world’s first touch-free environmental smart sensor to help decrease indoor pollution. The ABB FusionAir Intelligent Sensor has four detecting choices to enable ideal conditions for better indoor air quality, safety, and comfort. According to a recent data, household air pollution is 3.5X worse on average inside a structure than outdoors, the World Health Organization has listed naming the problem as the world’s single most serious environmental health threat. Improved Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) with reduced susceptibility to volatile organic compounds requires adequate and suitable ventilation (VOCs).
- In January 2021, Pittsburgh International Airport announced cooperation with Honeywell to evaluate air quality enhancement technologies at the airport’s recently built innovation center, xBridge. Honeywell’s Healthy Buildings platform and air quality monitoring technologies will be used at Pittsburgh International Airport. Temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, particulates, and volatile organic compounds are all measured by the Honeywell Healthy Buildings platform at xBridge (VOC).
