Impact of COVID-19 on Tunnel Sensor market

According to the latest situation report (5^th May 2020) from WHO, the US, Spain, Italy, France, Germany, the UK, Turkey, Iran, China, and Russia are among the worst-affected countries due to COVID-19 outbreak. The outbreak started in China during December 2019, and since then, it has spread at a fast pace around the globe. As per WHO estimates, there were around 3.5 million confirmed COVID-19 cases globally and close to 2,43,000 total deaths. The global travel bans, factory shutdowns, and border lockdowns to combat and contain the outbreak have impacted every industry and economy worldwide. The sharp decline in electronics & construction industry is affecting the growth of global tunnel sensor market as they are the major supply and demand sources for tunnel sensors. The factory shutdowns, trade bans, travel bans, and border lockdowns to reduce and contain the outbreak have impacted on manufacturing, supply, and sales of various electronic components that are required for manufacturing of tunnel sensor solutions. All these factors are anticipated to negatively impact the growth of the global tunnel sensor market, especially in 2020 and 2021, depending on the duration of the outbreak.
