Industrial processes have become riskier for workers with the advancement in technology. Many gases such as carbon monoxide, ammonia, fluorine, chlorine dioxide and others are released during the manufacturing process. Any human contact with these gases can be detrimental to health. Wireless gas detectors allow for the remote detection of these gases so that they can be monitored from a distance and controlled in case of leakage. Hence, wireless gas detectors are increasingly used in areas such as mining, industrial processes, building technology, and households to improve safety and prevent mishaps.
According to the report, one of the major drivers in this market is the increase in government safety regulations. Air pollution is affecting people's health both inside and outside manufacturing premises. Therefore, laws and policies have been formulated to control the emission of harmful gases from these plants.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is price erosion due to intense competition among vendors. Attracted by the big opportunities in the market, many new vendors with innovative technologies are entering the market. This has led to price wars, price erosion and lower prices of gas detection equipment.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
