In 2021, the chemical detection application accounted for the largest size of the handheld chemical and metal detector market, and a similar trend is likely to be observed during the forecast period. The high growth can be attributed to the increasing use of handheld chemical detectors by first responders to instantly monitor hazardous materials (HAZMATs) in the environment and ensure environmental safety. In addition, handheld chemical detectors expedite incident responses and enable reliable, accurate, and speedy chemical detection.

In 2021, the law enforcement agencies & forensic departments accounted for the largest size of the handheld chemical and metal detector market, and a similar trend is likely to be observed during the forecast period. Law enforcement agencies are responsible for enforcing laws, maintaining public order, and managing public safety, whereas the forensic team examines and analyzes evidence from crime scenes. These agencies and forensic personnel depend on proactive and preventative technologies that assist them in ensuring public safety. Handheld chemical, explosive, narcotics, and metal detectors assist first responders and HAZMAT teams in detecting HAZMATs and addressing potential risks associated with illegal activities and hazardous situations. Owing to these reasons, such detectors are highly demanded by law enforcement agencies & forensic departments of different countries. This supports the growth of the handheld chemical and metal detector market.

North America is projected to account for the largest share of the global market during the forecast period. The growth of the market in the region can be attributed to the rising demand for handheld chemical, explosive, and narcotics detectors by law enforcement agencies for the safe detection of chemicals, explosives, and priority drugs. According to NBC News, California’s national forests are home to 80–85% of the country’s illegal marijuana growth. Drug traffickers reroute millions of gallons of water to grow and have caused several large wildfires. Also, the significant use of pesticides on crops is endangering wildlife, water supplies, and people. Handheld detectors help forest officers to detect these hazardous chemicals and drugs and protect forests from wildfires.
