The Breathalyzer Market encompasses devices designed to detect alcohol levels from a person's breath, often used to determine blood alcohol content (BAC). These devices are critical tools in law enforcement, workplace safety, healthcare, and personal use. Breathalyzers use sensors—fuel cell, semiconductor, or infrared—to ensure accurate and fast BAC readings. Rising concerns over drunk driving, alcohol abuse, and workplace safety regulations have significantly increased the demand for breathalyzer devices worldwide.
The global Breathalyzer market was valued at USD 2.02 Billion in 2023 and growing at a CAGR of 16.94% from 2024 to 2033. The market is expected to reach USD 9.66 Billion by 2033.
