With the complexity of measuring IAQ parameters like formaldehyde, humidity, temperature, particulate matter, and more, integrating multiple sensors becomes time-consuming and resource intensive. But it no longer has to be with SEN6x – an environmental sensing platform that combines all essential sensors into one compact module.

Sensirion is adjusting its outlook for the 2023 financial year due to the challenging market environment. For the current financial year, we now expect sales of CHF 235–255 million (previously CHF 300–340 million) and an EBITDA margin of approx. 10% (previously approx. 20%). The expectation for the gross margin remains unchanged in the mid-fifties. The first half of the year closed with sales of around CHF 123 million. The medium and long-term outlook remains positive due to a strong pipeline of new business and supporting megatrends.

Monitoring air quality, especially carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels, has gained widespread public attention in the past few years. A space with low CO₂ and fresh air represents adequate airflow, which effectively improves work and study efficiency and reduces the risk of fatigue, headaches, and drowsiness. 

Sensirion is proud to announce the harmonization of its air quality sensors with the RESET Air Standard. This step simplifies the accreditation process for indoor air quality monitors and enables customers to comply with RESET standards while ensuring accurate and reliable indoor air quality monitoring.

Sensirion, a leading provider of smart sensor solutions, has announced that it has joined the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), a global organization that sets standards for Internet-of-Things (IoT) connectivity. This membership demonstrates Sensirion’s commitment to providing customers with reliable and practical IoT solutions.

At the annual general meeting on 15 May 2023 in Rapperswil-Jona, the shareholders of Sensirion Holding AG were informed about the results of the Sensirion group for the financial year 2022, which were based on diversified sales growth in all end markets. The shareholders approved all proposals of the Board of Directors.

The leading developer and manufacturer of core parts for automotive electronic management systems in South Korea has recently launched a hydrogen leak detector that provides reliable real-time monitoring. To achieve maximum durability even in the harshest environments, Hyundai Kefico relies on Sensirion sensors.

Sensirion expands the possibilities of thermal flow measurement in laboratory analytics and industry. With the help of a new design, engineers have succeeded in developing a high-flow sensor with significantly higher liquid flow rates of up to 1 liter per minute. The Swiss manufacturer is thus advancing into a new dimension of accurate flow measurement and expanding their portfolio.

Qmicro by Sensirion will present the DynamiQ-S micro gas chromatograph at Pittcon 2023 in Philadelphia, PA, USA. The DynamiQ-S provides fast and accurate gas analysis for monitoring or industrial lab analysis purposes.

Despite a challenging economic environment, 2022 was once again a successful year for Sensirion. The environmental product portfolio (Dust [PM2.5], CO2 and Formaldehyde) remained the key growth driver, supported by a one-off special demand for medical CPAP devices.

In the second half of the year, a slowdown in demand from consumer-sensitive end markets such as Appliances and Consumer was observed. However, the long-term strategic goals remain on track thanks to further implementation of the growth strategy.

The year closed with consolidated sales of CHF 321.7 million (+11.9%), of which CHF 28.3 million can be attributed to the one-time special demand for CPAP devices. Adjusted for this one-time special item, sales grew by 10.5%. The gross margin achieved an above-average value of 59.2%, while the EBITDA margin reached high 27.8%. Both key profitability figures will normalize due to investments made in growth opportunities throughout the year.

Sensirion’s affiliate IRsweep launched the first cost-effective spectrometer product with industry-leading lead times. With their new IRis-C, they are making spectroscopy more accessible for a variety of lab and field applications.
