Laboratory Proficiency Testing Market 2030: Asia Pacific's Dominant Surge
The global laboratory proficiency testing market size was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 2.13 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.43% from 2025 to 2030. Growth in this market is influenced by rising demand across sectors such as water testing, cannabis testing, and food safety. A major driver is the increasing emphasis on water quality analysis aimed at detecting micropollutants, contaminants, and microorganisms in freshwater and wastewater systems. Common microbial contaminants include Legionella , Legionella pneumophila , Salmonella , enterococci, E. coli , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , coliforms, and staphylococci. Proficiency testing plays a vital role in water microbiology by ensuring laboratories can accurately detect and quantify these organisms. Through blind sample distribution, proficiency testing programs assess a laboratory’s capability to deliver consistent and reliable water quality data, thereby supporting public health protection....
