The pressure sensor market is projected to grow from USD 13.07 billion in 2025 to USD 17.70 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2025 and 2030.

The rising adoption of predictive maintenance strategies across industries creates significant growth opportunities for the pressure sensor market, particularly through the integration of Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Predictive maintenance depends on real-time condition monitoring, where pressure sensors are critical in tracking pressure fluctuations within machinery and systems to detect potential anomalies before they lead to costly failures. Industries such as manufacturing, oil & gas, utilities, and transportation increasingly implement predictive maintenance to minimize unplanned downtime, extend equipment lifespan, and reduce operational costs. Pressure sensors embedded in IoT-enabled networks provide continuous data streams that, when analyzed through advanced analytics platforms, allow accurate forecasting of equipment health and maintenance needs. This enables companies to shift from reactive to proactive maintenance planning, improving productivity and asset reliability. Moreover, the rise in cloud-based analytics platforms and secure data communication protocols simplifies the deployment of predictive maintenance programs while ensuring data integrity. As organizations continue to prioritize efficiency, cost control, and operational resilience, the demand for smart sensors—pressure sensors—tailored to predictive maintenance applications is expected to surge. This trend drives innovation among sensor manufacturers to develop high-precision, durable, and IoT-compatible solutions, further propelling the pressure sensor market.

“Piezoresistive sensing method segment is expected to record a significant CAGR in the pressure sensor market from 2025 to 2030.”

The piezoresistive sensing method segment is projected to register a significant CAGR in the pressure sensor market from 2025 to 2030 due to its proven advantages in accuracy, stability, and cost-effectiveness. Piezoresistive pressure sensors operate by detecting resistance changes in semiconductor materials under mechanical strain, which allows them to deliver highly sensitive and linear output signals. Their compatibility with MEMS fabrication techniques has enabled miniaturization, making them ideal for integration into compact, portable devices used in medical, automotive, and consumer electronics sectors. In the automotive industry, piezoresistive sensors are widely used in manifold absolute pressure (MAP), fuel, and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) due to their durability and precision under varying environmental conditions. In medical devices, especially in invasive applications such as catheters and infusion pumps, piezoresistive sensors are favored for their small size and high accuracy. Furthermore, advancements in silicon-based sensor technology and improvements in fabrication techniques are reducing production costs while increasing sensor performance. As industries demand more reliable, energy-efficient, and application-specific sensing solutions, piezoresistive pressure sensors are gaining traction due to their adaptability across use cases. These factors collectively contribute to the high growth potential of the piezoresistive sensing method segment during the forecast period.

“Absolute pressure sensor segment is likely to contribute a major share of the pressure sensor market from 2025 to 2030.”

The absolute pressure sensor segment is expected to maintain a strong market position from 2025 to 2030, driven by its broad utility across applications that require precise measurement of pressure relative to a vacuum. These sensors are indispensable in environments where even small pressure changes can impact performance, such as aerospace, meteorology, industrial vacuum systems, and automotive engine diagnostics. In the automotive sector, absolute pressure sensors are key components in manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensors used to calculate engine load, which is critical for optimizing fuel injection and emissions control. Additionally, these sensors are used in climate control and barometric pressure monitoring in automotive and aviation systems. Their reliability in high-vibration and extreme temperature environments makes them particularly suitable for aerospace and heavy industrial applications. Furthermore, the rise in demand for smart and connected devices, including drones, weather monitoring equipment, and portable electronics, further fuels the need for compact, robust, and accurate absolute pressure sensors. Their ability to offer consistent readings unaffected by atmospheric pressure changes also makes them a preferred choice for sealed system monitoring. These characteristics, combined with advances in MEMS technology and miniaturization, ensure a sustained and significant contribution of the absolute pressure sensor segment to the market.

“North America accounted for the largest share of the pressure sensor market in 2024.”

North America held the largest share in the pressure sensor market in 2024, primarily due to its advanced industrial infrastructure, strong automotive and aerospace sectors, and the rapid adoption of smart technologies across key verticals. The US, in particular, is a global hub for innovation in sensor technology, with leading companies, such as Honeywell, Emerson Electric, and Amphenol, headquartered in the region. These firms continue to invest heavily in R&D to develop high-performance, application-specific pressure sensors. The early embrace of Industrial IoT (IIoT) and predictive maintenance strategies across manufacturing plants has significantly increased the deployment of pressure sensors for real-time equipment monitoring and operational optimization. Furthermore, the stringent regulatory frameworks, especially regarding vehicle safety and emissions standards, have driven the integration of pressure sensors into engine control units, exhaust systems, and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). In the medical domain, the strong healthcare infrastructure and the growing demand for advanced diagnostic and monitoring equipment have also contributed to increased sensor adoption. Additionally, the push toward renewable energy and smart grid systems creates new applications for pressure sensors in the utility and energy sectors. These diverse and mature end-user markets reinforce North America’s leading market share in 2024.
