The global legionella testing market in terms of revenue was estimated to be worth $296.0 million in 2022 and is poised to reach $439.0 million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2022 to 2027

The Legionella testing market is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period due to the increasing prevalence of Legionnaires’ disease, a respiratory infection caused by the bacteria Legionella pneumophila, and the rising demand for water safety testing in both commercial and residential spaces. Legionella is a type of bacteria that is found in both natural and man-made water systems, and it can cause serious infections in humans if it is not properly monitored and managed. As such, testing for Legionella has become an important part of water safety testing, as it helps to detect the presence of the bacteria and take the necessary steps to prevent contamination.

The growth of the Legionella testing market is driven by the increasing awareness of Legionnaires’ disease, the growing demand for water safety testing, and the availability of new testing methods. The increasing prevalence of the disease has raised awareness about the importance of testing for Legionella, leading to the growing demand for Legionella testing services. The availability of new testing methods such as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and immunoassays has also contributed to the growth of the market.

In addition, the increasing adoption of Legionella testing in various industries such as food processing, hospitality, and healthcare is also driving the growth of the Legionella testing market. The growing demand for Legionella testing in the hospitality industry is primarily due to the stringent regulations imposed on water safety in hotels, resorts, and other lodging establishments. Furthermore, the growing demand for automated testing systems is also contributing to the growth of the market.

Driver: Rapid increase of pneumonia and Legionella-related illnesses

According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) (May 2022), Legionnaires' disease remains an uncommon and mainly sporadic respiratory infection with an overall notification rate of 1.9 cases per 100,000 population for the EU/EEA in 2020. France, Germany, Italy, and Spain accounted for 72% of all notified cases. In addition, according to the US CDC (March 2022), the age-standardized average incidence was 0.48 cases per 100,000 population during 1992–2002, compared with 2.71/100,000 in 2018.

Opportunity: Legal requirements for water testing

The Environment Protection Agency (EPA) (October 2021) sets legal limits on over 90 contaminants in the US for drinking water. The legal limit for a contaminant reflects the level that protects human health and that water systems can achieve using the best available technology. EPA rules also set water-testing schedules and methods that water systems must follow. 

Restraint: lack of reimbursement policies

The major factor restraining the growth of the legionella testing market is inadequate reimbursements. According to MedPAC (Medicare Payment Advisory Commission), medical testing has seen a 40% decline in reimbursement over the last 40 years.
