Market Overview:
The global shore hardness testers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for shore hardness testers in industrial and laboratory applications. Shore hardness testers are used for measuring the indentation depth of a material under compression, and these devices are widely used across various industries such as automotive, aerospace, marine, construction, and others. In addition, the growing demand for digital shore hardness testers is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Shore Hardness Testers are devices used to measure the hardness of a material. The importance of Shore Hardness Testers is that they can help determine the durability and toughness of a material, which can be important in choosing the right material for a particular application.
Analog:
Analog is a continuous variable that can take values between 0 and 10. It's most commonly used in shore hardness testers, but it's also used in wave riders, rudders, and other devices. The growth factor for the market is determined by two major factors: the need to measure resistance of soil or rock to erosion and the need for easy installation & maintenance of these devices onshore as well as offshore.
Digital:
The digital system is a computer software or hardware used to measure the shore hardness of water. It helps in determining the degree of calcium carbonate saturation in softening solutions. The device works on different principles depending upon its type such as conductivity, capacitive and thermal methods for measurement of shore hardness.
Calcium carbonate saturation level is an important parameter while selecting appropriate softeners for various applications such as road construction materials, industrial cleaning products and swimming pool chemicals among others.
Application Insights:
The others application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The Shore Hardness testers are widely used by laboratories for testing the samples taken from water bodies, which include rivers, canals and lakes. These devices help determine if a body of water is hard or soft as per its surface layer or bed rock.
The industrial use segment was valued at USD 55.0 million in 2017 owing to rising demand from various industries including construction, mining and civil engineering etc., The shore hardness tester helps check if a particular area along with its foundation will be able to bear load of cement & other materials etc., without getting damaged or cracking into pieces due to excessive hardness. It also helps measure the resistance of soil before installing any kind of pipes/cables/roofing tiles carrying fluids like oil & gas etc., Thus driving product demand in industrial applications globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period owing to increasing demand for shore hardness testers from industries, such as construction and mining, which use them for testing of concrete mix designs. In addition, rising number of beach nourishment projects by state and federal governments are anticipated to drive the regional product demand over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth over the coming years due to rapid industrialization coupled with expansion of mining operations in countries like China and India. Rising awareness among consumers regarding health hazards associated with water pollution is also likely boost regional product demand during the estimated time span.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Shore Hardness Testers from end-use industries such as automotive, aerospace, and defense to measure the hardness of materials.
- Growing popularity of Shore Hardness Testers among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to its low cost and easy operability.
- Rising investments by key players in research and development (R&D) activities to develop new products with enhanced features.
- Proliferation of online shopping portals that offer a wide range of Shore Hardness Testers at competitive prices is expected to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
