Low GWP Refrigerant Market by Type (Inorganics, Hydrocarbons, Fluorocarbons and Fluoro-olefins (HFCs and HFOs)), Application (Commercial Refrigeration, Industrial Refrigeration, Domestic Refrigeration, and Others), and Region 2023-2028


The global low GWP refrigerant market size reached US$ 7.48 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 12.37 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.12% during 2023-2028. The rising product demand in the commercial sector, various product innovations, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants are substances used as refrigeration agents that have a lower impact on the environment. Hydrocarbons, fluorocarbons, carbon dioxide, and ammonia are some of the commonly used low-GWP refrigerants. They are widely used in large industrial refrigeration systems such as food processing plants, breweries, and cold storage facilities. They are also used for heating and cooling homes and buildings. As compared to traditional GWP refrigerants, low GWP refrigerants have a lower contribution to climate change and ozone depletion. They are also safe, have better energy efficiency, lower toxicity, and flammability, and help to reduce emissions. As a result, low GWP refrigerants find extensive applications across commercial refrigeration, industrial refrigeration, and domestic refrigeration.

Low GWP Refrigerant Market Trends:



The rising product demand in the commercial sector for air conditioning and refrigerating applications is one of the key factors driving the market growth. In line with this, low GWP refrigerants are widely used due to the growing need for efficient refrigeration in industries like food processing to keep dairy, meat, and fishery products fresh. Additionally, the widespread adoption of hydrocarbons, as they possess robust thermodynamic properties and allow the cost-effective operation of refrigerating and air-conditioning systems, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, manufacturers are focusing on the development of new low GWP refrigerants that are both environmentally friendly and energy-efficient, which in turn is providing an impetus to the market growth. Moreover, the rising product application in the residential sector, owing to the transition towards eco-friendly refrigeration alternatives, increasing standards of living, and growing need to reduce electricity bills, is positively influencing the market growth. Besides this, the expansion of retail food chains and the growth in international trade (due to trade liberalization) have led to an increase in the demand for cold chain processes, which in turn is providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Furthermore, the launch of a new low GWP refrigerant for commercial and industrial refrigeration that is operationally safe, reduces carbon footprint and complies with new regulations is propelling the market growth. Other factors, including enhanced research and development (R&D) activities, increasing demand for frozen food products, widespread product adoption as they provide better energy performance, and the implementation of various government initiatives to promote the use of low GWP refrigerants due to their low-emission and environment-friendly properties, are supporting the market growth.
