A non-contact infrared thermometer is a device designed to swiftly and non-intrusively assess temperature, potentially causing less discomfort compared to traditional methods.
The primary product categories within the non-contact infrared thermometers market include forehead, in-ear, and multifunctional thermometers. In-ear non-contact infrared thermometers are specifically used to measure ear temperature within the ear canal, although they may not be as accurate as contact infrared thermometers. These are commonly employed in medical and veterinary applications. The distribution channels for these thermometers encompass hospital pharmacy, retail pharmacy, and online sales.
The non-contact infrared thermometers market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides non-contact infrared thermometers market statistics, including non-contact infrared thermometers industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a non-contact infrared thermometers market share, detailed non-contact infrared thermometers market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the non-contact infrared thermometers industry. This non-contact infrared thermometers market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The non contact infrared thermometers market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.02 billion in 2024 to $0.02 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to impact of COVID-19, emerging markets growth, increased prevalence of infectious diseases, increased disease prevalence amongst animals, rise in healthcare expenditure and increased geriatric population.
The non contact infrared thermometers market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.02 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise in online pharmacies, e-c0mmerce and growing affordability of non-contact infrared thermometers and technological advances. Major trends in the forecast period include focusing on integrating bluetooth functionality to give better understanding of the location of cluster cases having temperature, collaborating with the government to quickly increase production and to grow customer base and listing products on online channels for an increase in sales and revenues.
The surge in demand for non-contact infrared thermometers, primarily due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, stands as a pivotal factor propelling market growth. With COVID-19 infections on the rise and fever being a prominent symptom, the need for temperature testing in large gatherings has become imperative. Infrared thermometers emerge as efficient devices for the accurate and frequent measurement of body temperature. They operate by monitoring temperature through the forehead from a distance, providing quick and precise results. Consequently, the demand for infrared thermometers continues to escalate, driven by their rapid calculation and high precision features.
The expected increase in healthcare expenditure is poised to be a significant driver for the expansion of the non-contact infrared thermometer market in the future. Healthcare expenditure, reflecting the total spending on healthcare-related goods and services within a given healthcare system or economy, plays a crucial role in facilitating the development and accessibility of non-contact infrared thermometers. As an illustration, data from November 2022, as reported by the Canadian Institute for Health Information, a US-based not-for-profit organization, indicates a rise in healthcare expenditure to 0.8%, totaling $331 billion in 2022 compared to 7.6% in 2021. Consequently, the upward trajectory in healthcare expenditure is fostering the growth of the non-contact infrared thermometer market.
The incorporation of Bluetooth technology in the non-contact infrared thermometers market emerges as a significant trend. With door-to-door testing campaigns becoming less practical amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases, smart thermometers offer a viable solution. When activated, these thermometers connect to smartphones via Bluetooth, and the user's location is displayed on the corresponding app. Similar to traditional thermometers, users can assess their temperature, and if a fever is detected, the information along with the location is transmitted to a server. For instance, the Digi-Sense D/S IR Therm app enables the infrared thermometer to connect to Bluetooth technology, sending information to smartphones or iOS devices. Results are automatically stored in the app with a date-and-time signature, and they can be exported in CSV format and emailed for future reference.
Leading companies in the non-contact infrared thermometer market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as Bluetooth-enabled devices, to improve the user experience and meet the rising demand for reliable health monitoring solutions across various settings. Bluetooth, a short-range wireless technology, facilitates data exchange between devices within a range of around 100 meters, using low-power radio waves that are ideal for connecting peripherals like smartphones and headphones. For example, in July 2023, ThermoPro, a Canada-based manufacturer, introduced the Twin TempSpike Plus. This device offers a Bluetooth range of up to 600 feet and features dual probes for monitoring two meats simultaneously. Its durable, waterproof design enhances cooking precision and food safety, providing a reliable performance.
