Particle Counter Market size was valued at USD 421.73 Million in 2023 and is expected to exceed USD 1.52 Billion by the end of 2036, registering over 10.4% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In the year 2024, the industry size of particle counter is evaluated at USD 461.2 Million. The growth of the market is primarily attributed to the growing demand for positive air pressure cleanroom systems which are normally used for research, aerospace, military & defense applications, optics, electronics, and others. As per data, more then 10,000 positive air pressure cleanroom systems have been installed in United States in 2021.
A particle counter diagnoses and monitors the particle contamination within specific clean media that include air, water, and chemicals. It is an essential tool for detecting and counting physical particles. Particle counters are used in clean room laboratories, households, industries, and others to measure and maintain a desired level of cleanliness. With the rising need to maintain air quality index with deteriorating indoor air quality as well as rising household pollution, the demand for particle counters is on the rise amongst households, which in turn, is expected to create massive revenue generation opportunities for the key players operating in the global particle counter market during the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization data, each year 3.2 million people die due to household air pollution globally.
Growth Drivers
Growing Research & Development (R&D) Spending in the Pharmaceutical Industry –The rising demand for aerosol particle counters that are primarily used in the pharmaceutical industry to determine air quality, and the surge in the R&D spending in the industry are expected to propel the particle counter market in the projected period. It is found that the global research and development spending in the pharmaceutical industry reached almost UDS 199 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach around 250 billion by 2025.
Increasing Production of Oil – Particle counters are used for contamination analysis of injected water and cleanliness control of water-based hydraulic fluids. It is found that globally, more than 4 billion metric tons of oil is produced every year.
Rising Number of Cars Running on Diesel – The automotive industry needs to follow the new regulations of counting soot particles in the exhaust emission test of diesel cars. According to research in European Union (EU), approximately 32% out of all registered vehicles used diesel as fuel in the year 2020.
Upsurge in the Number of Hospitals – This is attributed to the fact, that the most tightly-controlled spaces are required in terms of monitoring the indoor environment. It was found that in Japan, there were more than 8000 hospital establishments in 2019.

Application (Aerosol, Liquid, Solid)
The global particle counter market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by application into aerosol particle counters, liquid particle counters, and solid particle counters. Amongst these segments, the aerosol particle counters segment is anticipated to garner the largest revenue by the end of 2036. This is backed by the rising air pollution along with the increasing concern about the rising incidences worldwide. For instance, global air pollution is now the greatest environmental threat to public health. Every year, it accounts for nearly 7 million premature deaths globally. A laser diffraction particle counter is one of the most popular types of particle counter that distributes the particles in sample laser light, and then recognizes the angle and intensity of scattered light to anticipate the size and number of particles.
Industry (Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals, Oil & Gas, Food & Beverage, Automotive, Aerospace)
The global particle counter market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by industry into healthcare & pharmaceuticals, oil & gas, food & beverage, automotive, and aerospace. The healthcare and pharmaceuticals industry was seen to account high market share in 2021. Also in the same year this industry received lots of funds and investment in terms of research and development, doubled with the demand for contamination control in pharmaceutical sector. This is expected drive the growth of this segment. The code of conduct associated with the production, storage and manufacturing of products must be followed by the medical device and pharmaceutical industry. Since, these products will be used by healthcare sector by doctors, patients and nurses, they must include less particle contamination.

North American Market Forecast
The North American particle counter market, amongst the market in all the other regions, is projected to hold the largest market share by the end of 2036. This is backed by the presence of a strong military network, growing military expenditure, as well as the rising demand for particle counters in the defense sector. It was found that the United States spent over USD 800 billion and was the top nation in terms of military expenditure in 2021. Particle counter has increasing demand in the pharmaceutical industry. The United States region is one of the biggest pharmaceutical markets in the world. Increasing the use of particle counter for maintaining air pollution, and initiatives organized by the government to increase awareness amongst people about pollution control and its prevention is driving the growth of the market in this region.
APAC Market Statistics
The Asia Pacific region is expected to have the fastest growth in the particle counter market in 2036. The major factor driving the growth of the particle counter market in the Asia Pacific region is the growing awareness about the significance of clean rooms' air contamination. Also, the expansion of pharmaceuticals Research & Development initiatives in China and India is anticipated to create various potential opportunities in the region. The Asia Pacific region also has a strong base in the pharmaceutical industry. Thus, it is expected to drive the growth of the particle counter market in this region.
