COVID-19 Impact: Imposed Restrictions in the Economy Resulted in Decline in the Market

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the Global Purge and Trap Concentrator (PTC) Market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 outbreak caused temporary business closures as well as supply chain and manufacturing disruptions, which in turn reduced the development of telecom infrastructure and had a negative effect on the sales and marketing efforts of rugged phone companies competing in the market. The effects were severe, particularly for startups and small- to medium-sized businesses operating in this industry. Companies did, however, make a lot of restructuring efforts to address the supply chain difficulties and improve collaboration with suppliers and partners to lessen the negative market impact.

LATEST TRENDS

Growth of the market in recent years

PTC devices are being made smaller and more portable, allowing for on-site VOC analysis in a variety of applications. The sensitivity and selectivity of PTC devices are being improved by the manufacturers in order to accurately identify and analyses even low quantities of VOCs. The effectiveness and performance of PTC devices are improved by the use of cutting-edge sorbent materials like high-capacity adsorbents and specialized coatings. PTC devices are increasing their range of applications by integrating with complementing methods like gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for thorough VOC analysis. To increase productivity and lower human error, PTC systems are combining automated capabilities like sample processing, data analysis, and reporting.
