Global Heat Stress Monitor Market 2018-2023 - Focus on Athletics & Sports, Military, Oil & Gas and Mining, and Manufacturing Plants

DUBLIN, Sept 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Heat Stress Monitor Market by Product Type, Application, Offering, Life Form, WBGT Technology, Sensor Type, and Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The overall heat stress monitor market estimated at USD 43.3 million in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 60.9 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 7.07% between 2018 and 2023.

The growth of this market is being fueled by the growing awareness of health and safety among the workers over the last few years.

The report covers the global heat stress monitor market on the basis of offering, product, technology, life form, sensor, application, and geography. The heat stress monitor market based on application is expected to be led by athletics and sports during the forecast period. The rise in applications of heat stress monitor in athletics and sports is boosting the growth of the heat stress monitor market for consumer electronics.

The services market is largest among the offering as the life span of heat stress monitor is more than 5 years, whereas the services are needed periodically to analyze the heat stress monitor data and to suggest necessary changes needed to avoid heat stress. Also, the cost of these services varies drastically from one region to another and from one application to another. Heat stress monitoring services are expected to grow in the coming years with growing awareness toward employee safety and increasing regulations for monitoring heat stress by only expert professionals.

The Americas is expected to hold the largest share of the heat stress monitor market by 2023. The Americas is the leading region in terms of the adoption of heat stress monitor technology; this is due to several health and safety awareness programs introduced by the US and Canadian governments. These governments have regulations that support the market for occupational safety equipment, which is the major driver for the growth of the heat stress monitor market.

Moreover, there is a growing demand for heat stress monitors in sports and athletics, and military, which, in turn, contributes to the growth of the heat stress monitor market. Heat stress monitor is gaining a lot of traction as it is an essential tool for occupational health and safety officers to evaluate work locations and verify that environmental conditions including humidity, airflow, and temperature are effective and appropriate for the prevention of heat stress.

Heat Stress Monitor Market

Increasing awareness about employees' safety from excessive heat at workplaces to drive the industry forward

Military

Military training involves a lot of physical work, high ambient temperature, and wearing protective clothing, which may elevate body temperature and cardiovascular strain sufficiently to degrade performance and induce heat-related illnesses. Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) was originally developed to monitor heat stress levels during outdoor training activities of US Marine Corps recruits and is based on measurements of temperature alone. Modern heat stress monitors or analyzers are capable of providing a digital readout of WGBT in 3 minutes or less. Thus, heat stress monitors are strongly being used to monitor the health of soldiers during training.

Athletics and sports

Athletic training and sports activities can cause exertional heat-related illness (EHRI). EHRI comprises several states that afflict physically active persons while exercising during heat stress. Some of its symptoms are heat exhaustion, exercise-associated collapse, exercise-associated muscle cramps, exercise-associated hyponatremia (due to low level of sodium in the blood), and exertional rhabdomyolysis (due to breakdown of muscle tissues). Thus, heat stress monitor plays a crucial role in athletics safety and helps avoid heat stress-related issues in athletics.

Manufacturing plants

Heat stress among employees of manufacturing plants is a serious safety concern. Radiant heat can easily penetrate a building roof and raise temperatures in workplaces to an unsafe level, especially in situations where workers are engaged in energetic or prolonged physical activities. Facility managers must identify heat stress inside the facility to prevent heat-related stress and illness and must take effective steps to protect their employees from a preventable tragedy. Thus, manufacturing plants and warehouses have started using heat stress monitors effectively to avoid heat stress-related accidents.

Critical questions would be:

• Where will all these developments take the industry in the mid- to long-term?
• Will the suppliers continue to explore new avenues for heat stress monitor?
• What are the upcoming industry applications for heat stress monitor?

Key restraining factors are lack of strict enforcement across industries in emerging economies and slow standardization of industrial regulations regarding safety, as employers still use conventional methods, such as manual environmental testing and others. The impact of this restraint is high at present; however, in future, the impact is expected to subside as various governments worldwide are expected to come up with more standardizations and regulations to reduce the risk at workplaces.
