EMC Testing Market Report: Size, Share and Outlook by 2031

The EMC testing market was valued at US$ 2.85 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 4.48 billion by 2031. The EMC testing market size is estimated to register a CAGR of 6.8% during 2025-2031.

The EMC testing market in North America is segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. Favorable economic and social conditions for developing and adopting modern technologies, including supportive government policies, vast industrialization, developed infrastructure, and a robust electronics industry, are driving the EMC testing market in North America. The consumer electronics industry is growing significantly in the region owing to the high adoption of smartphones, tablets, personal computers, HVAC systems, washing machines, and television sets. For instance, in August 2025, Apple announced a US$600 billion investment in US manufacturing and workforce training as it brings additional components of its supply chain and advanced manufacturing back to the US, along with an American manufacturing program to incentivize its suppliers to make their products in the US. The growing capacity expansion of computer and electronic products is increasing the adoption of EMC testing to identify the issues that affect the performance of electronic devices and systems. It also helps electronics manufacturers modify product designs by improving the reliability and performance of electronic devices and systems. Moreover, the continuous progress in adopting 5G networks creates strong opportunities for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing market players. According to Ericsson Mobility Report June 2025, the US and Canada have made impressive progress in deploying 5G nationwide, despite differences in the spectrum bands they have used. 59% of smartphone subscriptions in North America are 5G. In the US, over 300 million people (90%) live in areas served by 5G low-band from all three tier-1 service providers, while 210-300 million are covered by 5G mid-band. The 5G deployments drive the demand for EMC testing in the telecommunications sector for achieving modulation, frequency band requirements, and field strength.

The US EMC testing market is expanding steadily, supported by the increasing use of advanced electronic systems across various industries. The need for reliable EMC testing to ensure product safety and compliance is growing. As of July 2025, US semiconductor companies announced over US$500 billion in private-sector investments to strengthen domestic chip production. This includes research and development activities, chip design, manufacturing, and supplying essential equipment and materials. These investments are expected to triple US chipmaking capacity by 2032. With this rapid growth in semiconductor development and related technologies, the demand for EMC testing services is expected to rise, supporting product quality, performance, and regulatory compliance.

Consumer electronics manufacturers also offer advanced solutions for customers and develop new technology to lead the company's growth in the market. The automotive and telecommunication sectors play a major role in the US EMC testing market growth owing to the rising penetration of 5G networks and electric vehicles in the country. Furthermore, the growing adoption of IoT across industrial, commercial, and residential sectors is expected to drive the EMC testing market.

AMETEK Inc., Element Materials Technology, Bureau Veritas, Eurofins Scientific, Intertek Group plc, NTS, ROHDE&SCHWARZ, SGS SA, and TÜV SÜD are among the key EMC testing market players that are profiled in this market study.
