Market Introduction
The European noise dosimeter market is further segmented into France, Germany, Russia, Italy, the UK, and the Rest of Europe. Europe is a diverse market with a group of more than 40 countries in it. The Western European countries are more advanced than the Nordic and Eastern European countries, which is a key factor contributing to the high adoption of technological solutions across all industries in the western part of Europe. Economically strong countries such as Germany, Italy, the UK, and Spain have been significantly implementing advanced solutions. According to Committee for European Construction Equipment (CECE), construction is one of Europe's most important economic industries. It directly employs 18 million people and contributes over 9% of EU GDP. The region is also experiencing a high investment across three large components—new building construction, existing buildings, and civil engineering—of the construction industry. The European continent is home to some spectacular construction projects. The 18-km Fehmarn Belt Fixed Line, which will connect islands in Denmark and Germany via a tunnel beneath the Baltic Sea, has commenced construction. Borselle 1&2, the Netherlands' first offshore wind farm, is taking shape, with the capacity to power 1 million Dutch homes. Meanwhile, in Paris, the meticulous restoration of Notre-Dame will restore the world's most famous cathedral to its former splendor. Thus, this high investment in the construction industry across the region will create huge emission of noise at sites putting all its laborers in danger, thereby creating demand for noise dosimeters.
Europe is one of the major industrial hubs for information technology. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to several initiatives being adopted place to monitor noise levels trends pre and post lock down phase in European region. For instance, the Provincial Agency for the Protection of the Environment of the Autonomous Province of Trento (APPA Trento) shared the initiative to collect environmental noise levels during the emergency of COVID-19 outbreak, launched by AIA, carrying out extensive monitoring over the provincial territory both to document the acoustic climate of the province and to assess the acoustic impact of the protection measures adopted during pandemic. This indicated slight growth in the noise dosimeter market. In addition, as per a report by the Policy Department for Economic, Scientific and Quality of Life Policies, the pandemic boosted the penetration of Information and Communications Technology (ICT). The lockdown has caused a substantial decrease in mobility, thereby affecting noise levels in Germany. In addition, an online survey from Lyon, France, including more than 3,000 people, revealed that perceived noise has decreased in both urban and countryside areas. Therefore, the adoption of noise monitoring has been stagnant in the region during the pandemic.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The noise dosimeter market in Europe is expected to grow from US$ 202.85 million in 2021 to US$ 279.11 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2021 to 2028. Noise-producing apparatus or equipment are typically replaced with quieter options in industrial noise management. For example, increasing the number of blades or their pitch while decreasing the rotational speed can minimize the noise from an air fan while maintaining the same air flow. Industrial noise can also be reduced by obstructing its passage, e.g., a noisy engine can be insulated. Providing workers with hearing protection gear is a common approach of noise reduction in business. These devices must have enough noise attenuation to protect against the expected exposures while also not interfering with human speech and warning signs in the workplace.
Key Market Segments
The Europe noise dosimeter market is segmented on the bases of type, device placement, and application. Based on type, the market is segmented hardware and software. Hardware segment held the largest market share in 2020. Based on device placement, the Europe noise dosimeter market is segmented into on-body noise dosimeter, free-field noise dosimeter, and in/near-ear noise dosimeter. On-body segment dominated the market in 2020. In terms of application, the market is segmented into aerospace and defense, automotive, construction, and factories and enterprises. Factories and enterprises segment held the largest market share in 2020.
