Market Overview:
Refractometers are optical instruments used to measure the refractive index of a material. The global refractometer market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is divided into benchtop refractometer, portable/handheld refractometer, and inline refractometer. The benchtop segment dominates the global market owing to its high accuracy and precision in measurement. On the basis of application, food & beverage accounts for a major share of the global market due to increasing demand for quality food products. Other applications include chemical & petrochemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, pulp & paper industry among others.
Product Definition:
A refractometer is an instrument used to measure the concentration of a dissolved substance in a liquid. This is done by measuring the change in the index of refraction as light passes through the sample. The importance of a refractometer lies in its ability to provide very accurate measurements for low concentrations of substances, which makes it ideal for use in quality control applications.
Benchtop Refractometer:
A benchtop refractometer is a device used to measure the angle of deviation of light from its normal course. It is an optical instrument that works on the principle of variation in index of refraction, which is caused by temperature and pressure changes in air. The working principle behind it includes Snell's law, which states that if a ray of light passes through a transparent medium and its speed or wavelength is measured, then its angle with respect to the normal can be found out.
Portable/Hanheld Refractometer:
The portable/held refractometer is a device used to measure the angle of deviation or deviance in optical instruments, cameras, microscopes and other scientific equipment. It is also used as an aid for the treatment of patients with glaucoma and cataract.
It measures the angle between optical axis and surface upon which it is mounted.
Application Insights:
The food and beverage application segment accounted for the largest share of over 50.0% in 2017. The use of refractometers in the food industry has witnessed a surge due to their ability to measure both small and large angles with high precision, which helps in measuring the concentration of solutions such as juices, wine, beer, spirits and other liquids at different temperatures. Furthermore, refractometer is used to measure sugar content in fruit juices along with its pH value which further enhances its demand from this sector.
Refractometers are also used extensively for quality control purposes by manufacturers/processors of various consumer goods including confectionery products (chocolates & sweets), dairy products (yogurt & ice cream), processed meat products (sausages & bacon).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period owing to high demand for refractometers from various end-use industries, such as food and beverage, chemical and petrochemical, pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper. In North America, U.S accounted for more than 80% of revenue share in 2017 owing to high product demand from laboratories used by physicians for medical diagnosis at home or while traveling outside of hospitals.
The Asia Pacific regional market is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period due to increasing awareness about blood sugar level among consumers coupled with rising prevalence diabetes in countries like India.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for quality and safety in food and beverage industry
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using refractometers for various applications
- Technological advancements in refractometer design and functionality
- Rising demand from emerging markets
- Growing popularity of portable refractometers

Frequently Asked Questions?
A refractometer is a device used to measure the amount of sugar in a liquid. It uses the principle of refraction, which is how light waves are bent when they pass through different substances. The higher the concentration of sugar in the liquid, the more light will be bent and reflected back from the device's lens.
