从2007年9月1日起美国所有轻型车都被要求强制安装TPMS以来，TPMS市场开始迅速增长。2011年全球TPMS系统市场规模达到将近1800万套，比2010年增长13%，其中美国市场规模占到全球的50%以上。最近两年，一些国家开始效仿美国的做法，例如欧盟和韩国已通过立法要求安装TPMS，日本和中国的相关法案也正在商议当中。在法规和政策的推动下，未来几年全球TPMS市场将会迎来快速发展。

　　Schrader是全球最大的TPMS供应商，它从1991年开始进入TPMS领域，每年供货超过4000万个传感器，在全球TPMS市场的占有率约为33%，在美国市场占有率更是高达70%。Continental是继Schrader之后的第二大TPMS供应商，占全球大约25%的市场份额。除此之外，TRW、Beru、李尔等也占一定的份额。

　　早在2005年美国TPMS法案出台时，中国就出现了一批TPMS厂商，它们预期中国将在不久之后出台类似的法案，因此率先进入这一领域，期待市场爆发。但经过6年的发展，中国市场并未出现预期的增长，2011年市场规模不足200万套，TPMS装配率仅为8%，许多企业难以支撑纷纷转型，与此同时陆续有新的企业进入这一市场。


　　截止2012年，中国TPMS厂商将近200家，但技术水平参差不齐，仅有上海泰好、凯源科技、驶安特、泰晟科技等少数厂商能够实现批量生产。上海泰好从2002年开始发展TPMS，2007年开始为上海大众做配套，主要配套于帕萨特新领驭中。凯源科技技术主要来自于美国莱昂科技（LIONAX INC.）和美国泰瑞桑尼克（TYRESONIC INC.），并从2007年开始产品出口到美国。驶安特和泰晟科技则分别拥有年产250万套和30万套TPMS的产能，在中国处于领先水平。除这些厂商之外，其他厂商TPMS大多尚未形成规模化生产，产品也多集中在后装市场。

　　2011年1月，中国TPMS行业标准的获批为TPMS厂商带来了利好消息，但该标准高于国际上现有的标准，它要求TPMS应在6s内发出欠压报警信号，同时要求具备静止时的欠压报警等，这在技术上给相关厂商提出了更高要求。与此同时，中国拟定的TPMS规划要求2017年所有车辆需装备TPMS。一旦规划正式出台，中国TPMS市场将迎来爆发性增长，上海泰好、凯源科技、驶安特、泰晟科技这几家大型本土厂商，以及Schrader、Continental等国际性厂商有望迎来快速增长。

Since all light-duty vehicles in the United States were required to be installed with TPMS on September 1, 2007, the TPMS market has been growing vigorously. In 2011, the global TPMS market scale reached nearly 18 million units, up 13% from previous year, of which the size of the U.S. market accounted for over 50% of the global total. In the recent two years, some countries have begun to follow the practice of the United States, for instance, the European Union and South Korea have exerted legislation for the installation of TPMS; Japan and China are considering stipulating related acts. Driven by regulations and policies, the TPMS market will embrace rapid progression in the upcoming several years.

Schrader, as the world's biggest supplier of TPMS, tapped into the TPMS field in 1991, with annual shipment of 40 million sensors and 33% share in the global TPMS market (even 70% in the U.S. market). Continental is the second largest TPMS supplier, enjoying a market share of 25% worldwide. In addition, TRW, Beru and Lear also acquire some share.

When TPMS Act was issued in the United States in 2005, a number of TPMS vendors emerged in China, they expected that China would introduce a similar act soon, so they took the lead to enter this field and wished the prosperity of the market. But after six years, Chinese market has not seen the expected growth. In 2011, the market size was less than 2 million units, and the installation rate of TPMS was only 8%, so many enterprises had to quit the industry, whereas there were some new entrants.


By 2012, there have been nearly 200 TPMS manufacturers in China, but they were different in technology. Only Shanghai Topsystm, Kysonix, Sate Auto and Top Sun can carry mass-production. Shanghai Topsystm has developed TPMS since 2002, and it has been a supplier of Shanghai Volkswagen Passat. Kysonix introduces technology from USA LIONAX Inc. and TYRESONIC, Inc.. Since 2007, it has exported products to the United States. Sate Auto and Top Sun have the annual capacity of 2.5 million units and 300,000 units of TPMS respectively, being leaders in China. In addition to these above, most of others cannot conduct large-scale production, and their products are mostly concentrated in the aftermarket.

In January 2011, the approval of Chinese TPMS industry standards facilitated TPMS manufacturers, but Chinese standards are stricter than the current international standards, requiring that TPMS should give an alarm signal for undervoltage in 6s together with stationary undervoltagethe alarm, which poses higher technical demand on related producers. Meanwhile, China plans to make a TPMS planning that needs all vehicles to be installed with TPMS by 2017. Once the planning is formally enforced, Chinese TPMS market will see explosive growth. Large local enterprises (Shanghai Topsystm, Kysonix, Sate Auto and Top Sun) as well as international ones (Schrader and Continental) will witness rapid growth.
