Cold Insulation Market Report by Insulation Type (Fibrous, Cellular, Granular), Material Type (Fiber Glass, Polyurethane Foam, Polystyrene Foam, Phenolic Foam, and Others), Application (HVAC, Chemicals, Oil and Gas, Refrigeration, and Others), and Region 2024-2032


The global cold insulation market size reached US$ 7.0 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 13.1 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% during 2024-2032.

Cold insulation is utilized wherein the operating temperature is below the room temperature. It assists in preventing condensation, moisture intrusion and long-term degradation. It comprises water, solvent and mastic-based vapor barrier, which is resistant to mechanical damages. Some of the commonly used materials in cold insulation include polyisocyanurate (PIR), polyurethane (PUR) rigid foam or cellular glass, and stainless steel or aluminized steel. At present, it is extensively utilized worldwide on account of its ability to protect the environment from greenhouse gas emissions.

Cold Insulation Market Trends:

With the inflating disposable incomes of individuals, the demand for air conditioning and refrigerating devices is escalating around the world. This represents one of the key factors propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, a considerable increase in awareness about the energy losses and costs are also contributing to the market growth. Moreover, cold insulation is increasingly being adopted across numerous industries like oil and gas. This, in confluence with rising concerns about the adverse impact of greenhouse emissions, is driving the market. Furthermore, leading market players are investing in research and development (R&D) activities to develop insulation materials through sustainable raw material sources. This, along with various initiatives undertaken by governing agencies of several countries to increase the energy efficiency of public infrastructure, is creating a favorable market outlook. Besides this, the rising adoption of cold insulation in food and chemical storage and cryogenic medical applications across the globe is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Other major factors, such as a surge in energy prices and the increasing usage of liquified petroleum gases (LPG), are anticipated to stimulate the market growth.
