Analysis of Market Size & Trends

The Global Cold Chain Temperature Monitoring Market size is expected to reach $19.6 billion by 2026, rising at a market growth of 20.5% CAGR during the forecast period. Cold chain monitoring solutions are developed to identify and monitor products at the time of storage and transport. At this point, the rise in trade in perishables in developed and developing countries has led to the development of the demand for tracking the cold chain. The advent in connected device technologies such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to open up opportunities for groundbreaking monitoring solutions. Data loggers are essential for monitoring the food and beverage supply chain in order to increase the efficient management of the logistics chain.

Global Cold Chain Temperature Monitoring Market Size

The global market for monitoring the cold chain is being driven with the awareness of high-quality food and rapid urbanization. Storage tests are useful for increasing the shelf life of the medicine. Monitoring inventories in the pharmaceutical industry and rising drug consumption are two of the key factors of the demand for tracking the cold chain. The strict regulatory environment of the pharmaceutical industry and the successful use of pharmaceuticals and the growth of nursing homes and hospitals are projected to dominate the global market. Growth in health awareness and the push to reduce food waste are projected to lead the global market for monitoring the cold chain during the outlook period.

Globally, efforts by different governments sustain the growth of the market for tracking and monitoring the cold chain. The cold chain tracking and monitoring industry is projected to increase due to its emphasis on quality and product sensitivity, growth in organized retail, growth in refrigerated warehouses, improvements in government policies and legislation, and growth in the pharmaceutical sector. The lack of standardization and high labor costs, however, limits the market monitoring of the cold chain and monitors market growth. In addition, radio frequency identification (RFID) solutions for cold chain monitoring business applications and analysis for advances in cold chain software offer lucrative prospects for key players.

Cold Chain Temperature Monitoring Market Share

Rising demand for improved product safety, growing demand for temperature-sensitive medications and growing emphasis on optimizing the productivity of the supply chain are some of the main factors driving the growth of the market for controlling the cold chain. Nonetheless, high deployment costs can restrict the growth of the market for monitoring the cold chain. The growing availability of cold chain logistics in developed countries is generating opportunities in the market for cold chain monitoring.
