Boston, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to the latest study from BCC Research, the “Global Markets for Laser Systems, Components and Materials" is expected to grow from $21.0 billion in 2024 to reach $30.4 billion by the end of 2029, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% from 2024 through 2029.

This report offers a detailed analysis of the global laser systems market, covering laser types (solid-state, semiconductor, gas, and liquid), applications (macro- and micro-processing), and end-use sectors such as industrial, medical, telecom, and defense. It breaks down regional data for North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. The report also discusses the key market players, their products, and strategic initiatives.

This report is particularly relevant today due to the rising demand for laser-based devices in the cosmetics and industrial sectors. In dermatology, the popularity of aesthetic skin treatments is driving the growth of laser technologies. At the same time, industries are increasingly adopting automation, boosting the use of advanced lasers for precision manufacturing and material processing.

The factors driving the market’s growth include:

Automation and Precision Manufacturing: As factories adopt smarter technologies, lasers are critical for tasks like cutting, welding, and engraving due to their speed and accuracy. This boosts demand in industrial automation.

Electronics and Semiconductors: The booming electronics industry relies on lasers for chip production and micro-machining. As devices get smaller and more complex, laser use in manufacturing keeps growing.

Medical and Aesthetic Procedures: Lasers are widely used in surgeries, eye treatments, and skin procedures. Their precision and non-invasive nature make them popular in both medical and aesthetic fields.

Communication Systems: Lasers power fiber-optic networks, enabling fast internet and data transfer. With the rise of 5G and cloud computing, laser components are vital in telecom infrastructure.

LiDAR and Autonomous Tech: Lasers in LiDAR systems help self-driving cars and drones map their surroundings. As autonomous technology advances, so does the need for compact, high-performance laser systems.
