fluid testing devices) and by production of devices (domestically or imported)
are also present. A detailed section on the new technologies used in these
testing devices, the challenges faced in the market, company profiles of major
players, their strengths and weakness and other competition factors have been
covered. The report concludes with the future predictions of the above
mentioned sections along with analyst recommendations for each stakeholder in
the market.
Global Drug
Abuse Testing Devices Market Overview and Size
As deaths due to drug overdose have been increasing, a number
of countries are introducing strict laws with respect to drug consumption; this
has given a push to the market of drug abuse testing devices. Initially,
traditional samples such as urine and oral fluid were used the most, however,
with time there has been a shift towards more convenient samples such as hair
and fingerprint devices which use sweat as its sample to detect the drugs that
an individual has consumed. As more
workplaces and schools are introducing random drug testing practices, the
demand for drug abuse testing devices has been constantly increasing.
Global Drug Abuse Testing
Devices Segmentation
By Region (North America,
Europe, Asia-Pacific and LAMEA)
The North American region contributed the highest revenue
percentage share in the global market as the USA is a leading exporter of these
products to rest of the world. Marijuana is the most commonly used drug in this
region. The mean average death due to drugs in Europe was calculated to 39
years in 2018. The use of opioid in treating moderate to severe pain is one of
the emerging concerns in Asia Pacific. It has lead to excessive and illegal use
of the drug. The MEA region has the lowest contribution in the market as the
laws present in this region are extremely strict and drug possession or
consumption can lead to severe punishment and penalties.
By Products (Consumables,
Analysers and Rapid Testing Devices)
The consumables include all the products such as cotton,
syringes, reagents etc. which are a part of drug abuse testing. This product
segment hold the highest share in the overall drug abuse testing market in 2019
as most of them have an extremely short
shelf life and cannot be used more than once. The analysers include
breath analysers, chromatography analysers and immunoassays. These devices
provide extremely accurate results and contributes second largest segment. The
rapid testing devices which include urine testing devices and oral fluid
testing have the lowest share towards the overall drug abuse testing devices
market, as with time, there has been a gradual shift towards new technologies
which use different samples.
By End Users (Criminal
Justice Systems, Work Places and Schools, Hospitals, Research Laboratories and
Others)
The criminal justice systems use these devices on an
extremely large scale to keep check on the consumption of different type of illicit
drugs in the country. For drugs testing, urine tests were most common used as
they provided accurate results, however owing to inconvenience and time taken
for the results to come has caused a shift from traditional methods to more
technology advanced options. Also a number of countries have made drug abuse
testing compulsory before employment. For example, since 2008, the Italian law
has prescribed mandatory drug tests for certain jobs which entail safety risks
to others, setting out which drugs can be tested for and what procedures are to
be followed. The preference for research laboratories for these devices is
comparatively less as they use bigger and complex devices for their research.
The other end users include customs departments, sports authorities and similar
regulatory bodies. As the number of cases of doping has been increasing year on
year, the sports authorities also take these tests seriously and demand for
these products.
Competitive
Landscape in Global Drug Abuse Testing Devices Market
The Global Drug Abuse Testing Devices market has a number of players as
the devices have a number of substitutes which are produced by a number of
companies. However, the market share is dominated by a few players which
include Abbott Laboratories, Danaher Corporation, Quest Diagnostics and Siemens
Healthineers. Other companies in this field include Thermo Fisher Scientific,
Dragerwerk AG, Bio-Rad Laboratories, OraSure Technologies Inc,
Hoffmann-La-Roche AG and many others.
Global Drug Abuse
Testing Devices Future Market and Projections:
By 2025, it has been estimated that the market will be driven
by innovative technologies with core focus on increasing test accuracy, finding
new samples and reducing result turnaround time. Mergers and acquisitions would
help large companies to expand into new market segments and industry would
experience further consolidation in future. Along with this, the growing
awareness among consumers and initiatives taken by the governments of various
countries to curb drug consumption is expected to contribute to further growth
in the industry.
