Leading Growth Driver in the Hand-Held Chemical And Metal Detector Market in 2025: Rising Drug Abuse Fuels Demand For Hand-Held Chemical And Metal Detectors Driver's Influence

What market dynamics are playing a key role in accelerating the growth of the hand-held chemical and metal detector market?
The upsurge in substance misuse is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the hand-held chemical and metal detector market. Drug abuse is defined as using certain chemicals to create enjoyable brain sensations. The rise in drug usage and the need to control drug transportation have led to a soaring demand for chemical and metal detectors. Scientists have developed chemical detectors and sensing chips to quickly detect cocaine* usage in individuals. The designed chip can be used in a compact, hand-held chemical detector used for identifying drugs in biological specimens such as blood, breath, urine, or saliva. According to the report, due to the pandemic, the surge in joblessness and decreased opportunities has majorly impacted the less affluent, making them more susceptible to drug usage as well as involvement in drug trafficking and cultivation as a means of income generation. Hence, the escalation in drug misuse propels the growth of the hand-held chemical and metal detector market.
