NDT refers to the method of examining materials/components to detect the defects/discontinuity in component or material to avoid equipment failure. In addition, it is used to ensure the safe utilization of engineering structures, product quality, and performance upon production. Increase in stringent government regulations across different geographical regions due to rise in incidence of infrastructure failures, need for extending the life of obsolete infrastructure, and maintenance optimization by various industries for efficient operations & quality/safety assurance are the factors that drive the growth of NDT market.

The market is classified on the basis of NDT testing method into ultrasonic testing, radiography testing, visual inspection testing, magnetic particle testing & electromagnetic testing, eddy-current testing, liquid penetrant testing, and others. Ultrasonic testing is expected to hold the largest market share owing to its ability to detect internal and hidden defect/discontinuity along with its high penetrating power and accuracy. However, liquid penetrant testing is anticipated to show significant growth in the coming years, owing to its low cost and user-friendly approach.

Among the industry verticals, energy & power was the foremost industry in 2015, owing to growth in number of power plants and equipment involved in the same.
