What is next in the TPMS market ?

TPMS market is at a cross roads today. Several questions are raised at technical and market levels. A few challenges are happening in a market that is seeing many newcomers:
  • Progress in indirect measurement systems,
  • Legislation change in Europe for reducing CO2 emissions,
  • Moving the sensor from the valve to the tire inlay,
  • Energy harvesting devices technologies and integration.
Each point will have very strong impact on the market and would mean a market shift.

TPMS MEMS market opportunity

99% of direct TPM Systemscurrently use MEMS pressuresensors. If nothing changes inEuropean or Asian legislation,the current market for TPMSpressure sensors is expected toreach $183M in 2012 from$168M in 2007, seeing a CAGRof 2% till 2012 in revenue dueto a strong erosion of prices,despite an increase of 12% involume.

Even though the market already has two leaders sharing most of the market, acrowd of newcomers are preparing new pressure sensors. Yet, if the Europeanlegislation makes TPMS mandatory equipment on all new cars, driven by risingconcerns on CO2 emissions, the pressure sensor market would go over $300 Mby 2012 (CAGR of 13% in the next 5 years).

Established vendors are looking at niche markets to sustain their revenues. TPMsystems can be used on airplanes, commercial trucks, buses, recreational andoff-highway vehicles and motorbikes. Some companies are focusing completelyon those high margin niches, but little help is expected from the legislator there.
