Global Infrared Thermometer Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the global infrared thermometer market, owing to increasing use of infrared thermometer for patients screening around the world suffering from COVID-19. For instance, in August 2022, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2020, Ministries of Health of almost all the countries are focusing on the screening of travelers at the point–of–entry for coronavirus symptoms. The screening involves two stages: primary screening involves the checking of the obvious signs of illness such as measuring temperature of the travelers and taking information about travel and exposure history. Secondary screening involves screening tests conducted by healthcare professionals. Due to the importance of primary screening process, there will be an increase in demand for infrared thermometers, which is expected to drive growth of the market over the forecast period.

*Definition: An infrared thermometer is a sensor that consists of a lens to focus the infrared (IR) energy on a detector, which converts the energy to an electrical signal that can be displayed in units of temperature after being compensated for ambient temperature variation.

Infrared thermometers have many applications for monitoring various temperature functions. For instance, the infrared thermometer is useful for recording the temperature of patients in hospitals without touching them. At the time of an epidemic or pandemic of diseases that cause fever among the population, such as the SARS coronavirus and Ebola virus disease, infrared thermometers are used to check arriving travelers for fever. The infrared thermometer is useful for measuring temperature under circumstances where thermocouples or other probe type sensors cannot be used or do not produce accurate data for a variety of reasons.
