Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The rise in demand for smart factories and IIoT is a key factor driving the market growth. The global demand for smart factories continues to grow, driven by the rise of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), which integrates smart machinery, warehouses, industrial robots, and production facilities to meet corporate goals and key performance indicators (KPIs). Industrial sensors within factories gather real-time data, enabling swift decision-making and enhancing operator efficiency. They also guide robots, ensuring human safety, and preventing machinery damage.
Countries like China and Germany have already adopted industrial sensors for better communication and coordination. Automation processes, including robots, sensors, and software, are expected to rise. Asset-intensive industries like oil and gas will particularly benefit from industrial sensors, which, coupled with analytics and Big Data, will enhance productivity, minimize downtime, and improve automated workflows.
An increase in real-time data monitoring for predictive analytics in industries is a key trend shaping the market. Industries worldwide are leveraging Big Data to enhance their operational efficiency. In the past, real-time data collection was hindered by disconnected devices, making insights challenging to obtain. However, the advent of IoT-connected smart devices now allows operators to access continuous data from plant facilities. Predictive analytics is particularly valuable for maintenance scheduling, as it provides insights into equipment health based on real-time data. This proactive approach enables the prediction of equipment failures before they occur, preventing unnecessary downtime.
End-users are embracing technological advancements, incorporating machine learning, IoT, and artificial intelligence (AI). Connected wearables offer real-time responsiveness, delivering benefits like improved operational efficiency, accurate production rate forecasting, inventory management, and early detection of potential production issues. These advantages are driving the adoption of IoT sensors in manufacturing industries, fueling growth in the global industrial sensors market in the forecasted period.
Growing challenges in delivering high quality at low cost is a key challenge hindering the market growth. Engineers and system developers are engaged in ongoing research to enhance and diversify their product offerings. As the industrial automation market gains momentum, it's increasingly crucial for industrial sensor vendors to offer easily customizable and cost-effective options. Customization, often required by end-users to ensure precision and reliability, can drive up sensor costs.
Over the years, sensor prices have dropped thanks to readily available off-the-shelf options, widely used in industrial automation systems. However, specialized sensors tailored for specific industrial process control applications are technologically advanced and therefore more expensive. These sensors involve meticulous engineering, manual wiring, and high-end components, potentially impacting market growth in the forecasted period.
The process industries segment will contribute a major share of the market, as the applications of these sensors in major end-user industries like oil and gas, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals and healthcare, water and wastewater treatment, and the power industry is rising. The segment showed a gradual increase in market share with USD 11.69 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. Process industries employ industrial sensors in terminal automation, storage management, control systems, and process equipment. Business owners make decisions to enhance business operations using the data produced by these sensors.

Industrial sensors are poised for wider utilization in the oil and gas industry to optimize supply chain management, design processes, production, quality control, and minimize environmental impact. The sector is increasingly adopting sustainable technologies to achieve a balanced energy ecosystem, integrating renewable and fossil fuels while reducing carbon emissions. Enhanced exploration and drilling operations in deep-sea hydrocarbon reserves also drive sensor adoption.
Similarly, the food and beverage industry, including wholesalers, producers, breweries, and bottling facilities, is embracing automation through industrial sensors. These sensors streamline operations, improving inventory management, shelf maintenance, and packaging quality by monitoring factors like oxygen, temperature, and moisture. These advantages drive industrial sensor adoption, fostering global market growth in the forecasted period.
Based on the product, the pressure segment holds the largest market share. Pressure sensors play a vital role in industrial settings, measuring the pressure of liquids and gases and transmitting data to automation systems for comprehensive performance analysis. Renowned for their strength, precision, and user-friendliness, these sensors find diverse applications in the oil and gas industry. They are crucial during exploration, completion, and production phases, employed on mud pumps, standpipes, and various well control systems.
Monitoring the pressure on casings and tubing is essential, as different metal alloys used in their construction have distinct pressure tolerance limits. Pressure sensors also play a significant role in downstream oil and gas, particularly in gas custody transfer operations. Combining wireless transmitters with pressure sensors allows real-time monitoring of wellhead casing and tubing pressure, safeguarding workers, the environment, and preventing resource loss.
