The global non-destructive testing market was valued at USD 11.5 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 21.6 billion in 2026, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period.
Non-destructive testing (NDT) or Non-destructive evaluation (NDE) refers to techniques, which are used to detect, locate and assess defects or flaws in materials or structures or fabricated components without affecting their continued usefulness or serviceability. This important and growing industry is involved in applying these proven techniques and procedures to the full range of engineering structures.
Constant advancements in electronics, robotics, and automation; easy to use software; assured return on investments; and favorable government regulations, among more are some of the major factors driving the growth of the non-destructive testing market. However, the complexity of the equipment makes it hard to operate and is costly, which could hamper the market growth. Lack of product knowledge in end users and high initial costs could also restrain the market growth.
