(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) The PFAS testing market offers significant opportunities driven by increased regulatory scrutiny and public awareness. Water testing is the largest segment, with LC-MS technology leading. The market is expanding quickly, especially in Asia-Pacific, presenting openings for service providers, particularly in water and pharmaceutical sectors.

Dublin, Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "PFAS Testing Market Industry Trends and Global Forecasts to 2040: Distribution by Type of Sample Tested, Type of Testing Service Offered, Type of PFAS Analyte Tested, Method / Testing Standard, Type of Technology, End-user, Geographical Regions and Leading Players" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.

The global PFAS testing market size is currently valued at USD 249.1 million and is projected to reach USD 1.20 billion by 2040, growing at a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic compounds characterized by fluorine atoms bonded to an alkyl chain. They are renowned for their exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and strength, and are widely utilized across various industries, such as automotive, agriculture, construction, electronics, medical, and textiles.

PFAs was first discovered in the late 1930s and gained prominence in the 1950s with their incorporation into various consumer products. However, growing concerns about its adverse health effects emerged in the 2000s, prompting increased scrutiny and the development of PFAS testing protocols. It is important to note that the prevalence of chronic diseases, such as PCOD, elevated cholesterol levels, thyroid, and cancers has significantly increased as a result of volatile PFAS compounds, therefore, raising serious concerns.

According to a recent report from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), PFAS contamination in drinking water contributes over 6,800 cancer cases annually, highlighting the critical need for robust screening and detection strategies. The urgency to address PFAS contamination has been driven by heightened public awareness, stringent regulatory guidelines from organizations such as the USEPA and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and advancements in analytical testing methods.

Additionally, factors such as an aging population, increased emphasis on wastewater treatment and water management, and growing research and media coverage have significantly propelled the PFAS testing industry. These efforts aim to mitigate environmental and health risks, ensuring greater protection for communities worldwide.

PFAS Testing Market: Key Segments

Water Testing is Likely to Hold the Largest Share in the PFAS Testing Market During the Forecast Period

Based on the type of sample tested, the global market is segmented into water, soil, food and beverages, blood / serum / plasma, air and other samples. Currently, the water testing segment leads the overall market. Further, it is important to highlight that this trend is unlikely to change in the future as well.

This is due to the need for safe water supplies, growing focus towards water treatment projects and water management. The other factor that contributes to market growth includes the adoption of strict guidelines by regulatory bodies in order to check the emergent contaminants in drinking water. This regulatory pressure is a major driver, as water utilities, municipalities, and industries are necessitated to meet these standards.

Quantification Segment Hold the Largest Share in the PFAS Testing Market

Based on the type of testing service offered, the global PFAS testing market is segmented into quantification, screening and extraction. At present, the quantification segment accounts for the largest market share. This is because quantification helps in precise measurement of PFAS levels that can be achieved through various techniques, such as mass spectrometry which plays a major role in detecting and monitoring PFAS contamination in various matrices, including water and soil.

Revenues Generated from Perfluorooctanoic Acid Segment are Likely to Dominate the PFAS Testing Market During the Forecast Period

Based on the type of PFAS analyte tested, the global PFAS testing market is distributed across Perfluorooctanoic Acid, Perfluorooctane Sulfonic Acid, Perfluorohexane Sulfonic Acid, Perfluorononanoic Acid and other analytes. Notably, the Perfluorooctanoic acid segment captures majority of the overall market. This is due to the widespread usage of these compounds in consumer products and industrial applications.

PFAS Testing Market for EPA / USEPA Compliant Solutions is Likely to Grow at a Relatively Faster Pace During the Forecast Period

Based on the method / testing standard, the global PFAS testing market is segmented across EPA / USEPA compliant solutions, ISO compliant solutions, ASTM compliant solutions, DIN compliant solutions and other method / testing standard compliant solutions. Presently, the market is dominated by the revenues generated through phase EPA / USEPA compliant solutions.

Revenues Generated from LC-MS is Likely to Dominate the PFAS Testing Market During the Forecast Period

The LC-MS segment captures the majority of the overall PFAS testing market. However, the GC-MS segment is anticipated to grow at significantly higher CAGR throughout the forecast period.

Pharmaceutical Companies Hold the Largest Share in the PFAS Testing Market

Based on the end-users, the global PFAS testing market is segmented into pharmaceutical companies, environmental scientists, research institutes, government agencies, testing laboratories and other end-users. Presently, the pharmaceutical companies' segment accounts for the largest market share. Further, this trend is unlikely to change in the coming future.

North America Accounts for the Largest Share in the Market

Based on key geographical regions, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Latin America. In the current scenario, North America is likely to capture the largest market share. Further, it is worth highlighting that the market in Asia-Pacific is expected to grow at a relatively high CAGR during the forecast period.
