The Global Breath Analyzer Market is expected to reach USD 9.7 Billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 16.8% during the forecast period 2021 to 2030.

The Breath Analyzer is a tool used to measure a person's Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) using a sample of their breath. The test used relies on whether there is a connection between alcohol in the blood or in the breath that is being taken. The use of breathalysers has increased as a result of the rising tendency of excessive alcohol intake leading to auto accidents. Government programmes that are beneficial are also fueling market expansion. Due to the growing need for accurate BAC (blood alcohol content) levels at the workplace and their non-invasive nature, breathalyser devices are likewise becoming more and more important.

Impact of COVID 19 On Global Breath Analyzer

As mentioned above, a breath analyzer is tool which calculates Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) from breath samples. This tool is sued in diagnosing chronic as well as infectious diseases. For instance, The Hound COVID-19 Breath Analyzers, one of the first portable breath analyzers in the world to identify the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the breath of human test volunteers, were introduced by Hound Labs Company in September 2020. Hound Labs employed the HOUND COVID-19 Breathalysers with hospitalised patients in the beginning with success. Infrared spectroscopy, semiconductors, fuel cells, and photovoltaic assay are some of the sensors utilised in breath analyzers.

Key Driving Factors

The increase in alcohol abuse, different initiatives have been taken by the government for alcohol testing, increasing approvals as well as quality certifications from approval bodies which propelling the overall growth of the market. Apart from this, the increase in the number of traffic accidents caused due to consumption of alcohol and related substances are driving the market growth. Thus, many countries across the world are imposing strict anti drunk driving legislation. In fact, various law enforcement agencies started using breath analyzers which help in detecting alcohol in breath and hence improve the road traffic safety. Furthermore, the increasing prevalence of asthma ad chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have contributed towards the huge demand of breath analyzers. This device is mainly used by the people because it immensely help people to quit smoking.

Key Challenging Factors

Different accuracy based issued which are related to breath analyzers and the testing of alcohol is considered as violation of privacy rights which are restraining the market growth. Moreover, the huge cost associated is breath analyzers is affecting the market expansion. Various developing economies in Asia Pacific region have a huge demand of breath analyzers but due to strict government restrictions, the growth of the market is affected.

Market Segmentation

Technology Insights

The Fuel Cell Technology segment holds the highest market share over the forecast period

On the basis of technology, the global breath analyzer market is segmented into fuel cell technology, semiconductor sensor, others. Among these, the fuel cell technology segment holds the highest market share over the forecast period. The use of fuel cell technology segment has shown huge growth in the past few years. In fact, the cases of prevalence of misreading acetone and ketone amounts have drastically reduced due to the alcohol sensitivity of fuel cell technology. Fuel cell technology has become the industry standard for handheld devices because of advantages like small size and low power consumption.

Application Insights

The Alcohol Detection segment accounted the largest market share over the forecast period

Based on the application, the global breath analyzer market is segmented into drug abuse detection, alcohol detection, medical applications. Among these, the alcohol detection segment accounted the largest market share over the forecast period. The rapid technological developments have immensely helped in detecting Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) with the help of breath analyzers. VOC detection is anticipated to help in the early diagnosis of certain health issues such as breast cancer, lung cancer, and cardiopulmonary disorder. The clinical applications of these analyzers are anticipated to increase as a result of these improvements. Currently, the only uses for breathalysers are the detection of drug and alcohol misuse, the diagnosis of gastroenteritis and asthma, and the diagnosis of drug abuse.

Regional Insights

North America is dominating the market with the largest market share over the forecast period

North America is dominating the Breath Analyzer market among all other regions due to the highly developed economy, rising awareness of road traffic safety, and increasing adoption rates of the product. Not only this but also the region is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period due the increasing application of breath analyzers.

Asia Pacific, on the other hand is anticipated to witness the fastest market growth over the forecast period in the regions like China, India, Malaysia, Australia, and Japan. This is because the adoption of breath analyzers in all these countries is still limited to law enforcement departments as well as surgery rooms.
