Concrete Moister Meters Market

Concrete moisture meter is a device used to measure the moisture level by flooring installers. Concrete moisture meter is being used for a long time to detect the moisture level of a concrete slab to a depth of 1”. This helps in avoiding the rebar reinforcement below the surface. Concrete moisture meter are designed to be used as relative test. This meter is used to spot check the surface to find the best place to put concrete. Pin type moisture meter consists of two pins which can be penetrated into the surface at a desired depth. Head of the pin detects the percentage of moisture content in the surface. Capacitive moisture meter and dielectric moisture meter are similar in functionality and senses the moisture content in a surface with the help of capacitor mounted on it. Rapid growth of construction industry is expected to boost the growth of the concrete moisture meter market.

COVID-19 Impact analysis

• COVID-19 pandemic has shut down the production of various products in the concrete moisture meter industry attributed to the lockdown in countries worldwide. This has hampered the growth of concrete moisture meter market in 2020 and, is likely to revive in 2021.
• COVID-19 has already affected the sales of concrete moisture meter in the second and third quarter of 2020 and is reviving in 2021.
• The major demand for concrete moisture meter was previously noticed from countries including the U.S., Germany, Italy, UK, and India, which are negatively affected by the spread of the corona virus, thereby declining the demand for concrete moisture meter.
• Further, potential impact of the lockdown is currently vague and financial recovery of companies is totally based on its cash reserves. Concrete moisture meter manufacturers can afford a full lockdown only for a few months, after which the players have to modify their investment plans. For instance, various players in the market halted their production activities for several weeks to reduce the expenses. Whereas few players also adopted employee lay-offs to sustain during the COVID-19 health crisis.
• Concrete moisture meter manufacturers are expected to focus on protecting their workforce, operations, and supply chains to respond toward immediate crises and find new ways of working after COVID-19. For instance, provision of sanitizers, maintaining social distancing, as well as ensuring the vaccination of every employee in the company can assist in promoting the health & safety of the workforce.

Top Impacting Factors

Rise in demand for effective construction boosts the requirement of effective and technically advance tools to avoid extra cost. Concrete moisture meter is one such tool. The moisture content in any concrete surface can be harmful for its durability. Use of concrete moisture meter helps in detecting the same with minimum human efforts. These factors boost the market growth at a global level. Concrete moisture meters are affected by what it sees in the concrete surface. It could be anything from density of concrete slab to the aggregate size of chemical properties. This factor limits its use. In addition, uncovered concrete dries from top surface to lower layers. Top surface dries faster than inner layers. Concrete moisture meter cannot penetrate to all the layers, which makes its results ambiguous sometimes. These factors hinder the market growth.

Market Trends

• Technological advancement of any product always plays a beneficial role in the competitive market. Manufacturer of concrete moisture meter are spending significantly to gain the same advantage. For example, METTLER TOLEDO launched a new moisture meter in May 2019, which is based on MethodWizar which is integrated software functionality.
• FLIR system has launched MO55W, a wireless moisture meter, which comes with a pin and without pin as well. This is another technical advancement by the manufacturer.
• R&D is in progress, for the development of concrete moisture meter with Bluetooth, which can be operated by IOS and android mobile phones. This is expected to boost the growth of the concrete moisture meter market.
