Breathalyzers Market to Boom Worldwide And Experience A Surge In Growth And Demand
 |
| Breathalyzers |
Breathalyzers are devices that utilise a person's breath to
assess their blood alcohol levels. Probation departments, police departments,
correctional houses, and the business sector all use these devices. Because of
the limits placed in place to prevent the transmission of illness caused by the
SARS-CoV-2 virus in different parts of the globe, the COVID-19 has had an
influence on the breathalyzer industry.
According to Coherent Market Insights, The global Breathalyzers
market is estimated to account for US$ 6,384.5 Mn in terms of
value in 2020 and is expected to reach US$ 71,866.2 Mn by the end of 2027. The
pandemic disrupted the general public's daily routine in several ways,
including a travel ban, the closure of bars and restaurants, and the closure of
other alcohol-selling establishments, resulting in a short-term drop in alcohol
consumption, which had a direct impact on the breathalyser market. In addition,
for a brief period, the global fall in sales of alcohol and allied drinks had
an indirect influence on the breathalyser industry.
The increased consumption of alcohol, as well as the
incidence of alcohol-related crimes and abuses across the world, has resulted
in more strict regulations requiring governments to test for alcohol levels. It
is a key element in the widespread usage of breathalysers, and it is expected
to be a role in future expansion, as many nations still lack adequate
regulatory legislation against alcohol misuse. According to the National Survey
on Drug Use and Health's 2019 report, 85.6 percent of adults aged 18 and above
in the United States admitted to drinking alcohol at some point in their lives.
The accuracy of breathalyser devices is a key issue that has
a negative impact on the market's growth. Furthermore, in certain places, an
alcohol test from a breathalyser is not acceptable in court owing to its
inaccuracy, even if the motorist was driving while under the influence of
alcohol, which may have an impact on the breathalyser market's growth.
According to Car and Driver, around 52 drunk driving charges by Michigan State
Police in the United States were investigated in January 2020 owing to a defect
in the maintenance of breathalysers, which was widespread across the country.
Breathalyzers Market growth Drivers-
Over the projected period, the worldwide Breathalysers
market is predicted to rise due to a high number of deaths
caused by drunk driving. According to the United States Department of
Transportation, drunk-driving collisions claimed the lives of 10,511 people in
2018.
Furthermore, R&D in the application of breathalyser
devices for evaluating marijuana consumption is likely to provide attractive
development prospects for global breathalyser devices market participants.
Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, for example, reported
the discovery of a mild electrochemical technique for the oxidation of
delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol in April 2020, which is likely to help in the
development of an electrochemical-based marijuana breathalyser.
