Global Industrial Air Compressor Market - 2022-2029
Market Overview
The global Industrial Air Compressor market reached US$ XX million in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2022-2029.
An industrial air compressor converts power into potential energy in compressed air, which is subsequently driven into storage tanks by these compressors. Depending on the desired pressure, the respective process could be done in a single-stage or numerous phases. The compressed air is then employed in numerous sectors by releasing its kinetic energy.
To avoid the high initial capital expense associated with new installations, consumers choose to have current machinery and equipment serviced and continue to use existing compressors rather than invest in new installations. Purification and moisture elimination systems come before compressor systems because they improve their operation and efficiency.
Market Dynamics
Extensive industrialization and increasing automation in industrial sectors drive the global industrial air compressor market. However, air leaks and associated constraints hamper the growth of the respective market.
Extensive industrialization and increasing automation in industrial sectors
Compressed air systems are used by 70% of all manufacturers in chemicals and petrochemicals, oil and gas, construction, automotive and transportation, packaging, power generation, healthcare, metals and mining, and others. Due to increased expenditures and capacity expansions, rapidly rising industrialization and manufacturing activities offer enormous opportunities for the industrial air compressor market to flourish.
Furthermore, government measures to promote industrial automation and a focus on industrial automation for optimal resource usage boost demand for industrial air compressors, which can be utilized to power pneumatic tools, packing, automation equipment, and conveyors.
Air leaks and associated constraints
Increased financial losses, equipment downtime, and unneeded capacity additions can all arise from air leaks. Cost constraints necessitate periodic monitoring and repairs because the average compressed system loses between 25 and 35% of compressed air due to leaks. Air leaks can be the most significant waste of compressed air energy at a manufacturing plant.
Due to peaks in demand, air leaks, pressure drops, and flow changes, many air compressor systems have to operate at high pressures. However, working at high pressures can necessitate up to 25% more compressor capacity than necessary, resulting in a waste of air, known as false demand. As a result, numerous industries find conducting air audits and managing leaks onerous, resulting in production losses and additional non-productive time.
Since air leaks can drastically increase an industry's operating cost, the demand for industrial air compressors is highly hampered by air leaks. As a result, the respective factor is recognized as a major market restraint.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 wreaked havoc on every other industry globally, including the industrial compressor business, disrupting supply lines and stifling demand. Manufacturing, electricity generation, renewables, nuclear, and oil and gas have suffered significant economic losses due
to the COVID-19 pandemic. Manufacturing facilities came to a halt due to government laws and standards such as social separation and lockdowns, derailing the entire global supply chain. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, industrial compressor manufacturers saw a fast reduction in demand in major end-user markets.
Nonetheless, by August 2021, the pandemic had passed U.S., Canada, and Western European countries. Vaccines have been continuously rolled out in various countries, resulting in this improvement. The aforementioned reasons allowed industries to operate at a level of efficiency compared to their prior levels. Due to the destructive impact of the pandemic and expanding globalization and urbanization, demand for industrial air compressors is likely to return to, if not exceed, its previous level.
Segment Analysis
The global industrial air compressor market is classified based on product, technology, power, lubrication, application and region.
The application of stationary compressors in a wide array of residential and industrial products ensures its market dominance
Stationary compressors are expected to be the most dominant product group, with the highest market share. The stationary category includes various products, such as large and medium-capacity industrial air compressors, utilized in various manufacturing plants and warehouses. Smaller and medium-sized stationary industrial air compressors are commonly found in refrigerators, air conditioners, and automobiles, while larger models are employed in industrial and manufacturing applications.
Stationary compressors are utilized in factories and industries where compressor mobility isn't necessary. When compared to portable compressors, stationary compressors may deliver higher air pressures. The rise of the stationary compressor segment is aided by strong growth in the automotive, chemical and petrochemical, energy, food and beverage, and other industries.
