Easy availability of alternative and low quality products is one of the major factors creating a challenge for viscometer market players. Improving access to cost-effective viscometer substitutes, particularly in local markets, are likely to impede the sales during the forecast period.
As these products are readily available at low costs, they are strongly adopted by smaller end-users, who do not need standardized accuracy for application measurement. New entrants or small companies, especially in emerging economies, develop similar products but do not meet the product design standards. Due to this, sales of well-known brands are adversely affected.
According to FMI, the U.S. will account for more than 70% of the North America market through 2031. Companies in the U.S. market will gain from the USMCA, a new deal between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada that replaces North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
Presence of key players such as Thermo Fischer Inc., Ametek Inc., and TA Instruments is expected to fuel the expansion of the viscometer market during the forecast period. Additionally, expansion of various domains, such as construction, petrochemicals, and industrial oil and lubricants, are likely to boost demand growth during the projection period.
The viscometer market in Germany is expected to rise at nearly 10% CAGR over the forecast period. Germany is the world's fourth largest economy and one of the world's top machinery producers, thanks to its industrial growth and technological advancements.
Germany also has the highest level of productivity and access to other European markets due to its central location. With the expansion of numerous end-use industries across the country, application of viscometer is expected to increase, fueling sales.
Furthermore, increased research activities, presence of numerous key companies, and the country's growing industrial sectors are few factors spurring the growth of the market.
China's status as a worldwide industrial powerhouse is one of the factors fueling the expansion of industrial sectors in this country, resulting in lucrative potential for viscometer market growth.
China also is one of the world's largest producers and consumers of industrial equipment, and it is estimated to account for over 50% of viscometer sales in East Asia. As it is one of the largest global providers of high-tech solutions, rapid industrialization will result in higher application of viscometers.
In 2021, India will account for nearly 40% of sales in South Asia & Pacific. With the expansion of manufacturing sector and increasing production of electronic equipment in India, demand for viscometer is expected to surge.
Government initiatives such as Make in India and Invest in India are expected to boost manufacturing in India, creating scope for expansion of viscometers market.
