Market Definition
Cold plasma, or non-thermal plasma, is a state of matter containing charged particles (ions, electrons, and neutral atoms or molecules) but at a temperature much lower than that of standard plasmas, which are mostly very hot. Cold plasma can be created at room temperature; thus, high energetic input is unnecessary. The name "cold" comes from the fact that the gas remains relatively cool despite containing its energetically charged particles, standing in contrast to thermal plasmas that are often applied in high-temperature processes such as welding or plasma arc cutting.
Market Insights & Analysis: Global Cold Plasma Market (2025-30):
The Global Cold Plasma Market size was valued at around USD 2.2 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 4.2 billion by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 11% during the forecast period (2025-30). The cold plasma market has experienced notable growth in recent years, driven by its diverse applications in surface modification, sterilization, and decontamination across various industries.
Cold plasma technology is gaining greater importance in the semiconductor industry, largely due to increasingly accurate deposition, etching, and surface preparation of conformal films. This is especially relevant to making state-of-the-art microchips for modern electronic devices. The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory has developed next-generation plasma simulation codes to enhance the efficiency of manufacturing accuracy and reduce the computing time of Plasma simulations. With manufacturing enhancements in accuracy and simulation time, the new simulation codes will also reduce excessive energy usage and costs associated with manufacturing. In turn, using cold plasmas has gained greater appeal in semiconductor fabrication.

Furthermore, large corporations like Lam Research and Applied Materials use cold plasmas to etch various materials without damaging the substrates and to clean contaminants before fabricating game chips. Since all of the current efforts are towards the miniaturization of semiconductors, the usage of cold plasma manufacturing methods has greatly increased to enhance the performance of semiconductors and move towards sustainability.
Over the last ten years, cold plasma technology has been a focus of researchers and industry in food security. According to the WHO, every year, 600 million people suffer from a foodborne illness, and 420,000 die from it. Cold plasma is a technology that can inactivate bacteria, fungi, and viruses on food surfaces with no additional chemicals or heating, so that the nutritional value and the freshness of food are maintained, reducing the risk of foodborne illnesses. Cold plasma studies have shown it kills many pathogens such as E. coli and Salmonella by more than 99.9%. As a result, countries worldwide are using cold plasma technology to support their food processing industries, especially in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, with food safety and extending food shelf life. In addition to safety, cold plasma also slows down the aging of fresh foods and any foodstuffs, which will help in the likelihood of spoiling. This can help among other things to address one of the SDG 12.3 priorities of the United Nations reducing food waste to half by 2030. Companies like AgroFresh and Plasmatreat are adopting this technology for fresh produce and packaged food treatment.
