Global Steel Gas Cylinder Market Growth 2025-2031
The global Steel Gas Cylinder market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1963 million in 2025 to US$ 2732 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2025 to 2031.
Steel gas cylinder is a container used to store and transport high-pressure gas, which is widely used in industry, medical treatment, fire fighting, food processing and diving. Steel gas cylinder is mainly made of high-quality carbon steel or alloy steel, with good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, and can withstand high-pressure environment.
The steel gas cylinder industry is currently in a steady development stage and is an indispensable infrastructure in the field of gas storage and transportation. The industry widely serves industrial gases, energy, medical treatment, firefighting and other fields. Among them, the industrial gas market is still the traditional pillar of demand, and the rapid development of clean energy has become a new engine to promote industry growth. In recent years, the global promotion of clean energy such as hydrogen and natural gas and the growth of medical and health needs have driven the growth of demand for steel gas cylinders, especially high-performance and specialized gas cylinders. In the Chinese market, products are mainly low-end and mid-range. However, with the improvement of industry technical thresholds and stricter environmental protection standards, the market is gradually moving towards centralization and high-end development.
In terms of sales areas, the demand for steel gas cylinders shows obvious geographical distribution characteristics. Developed countries such as Europe and the United States are the main consumer markets for high-end steel gas cylinders due to their high degree of industrialization and widespread application of clean energy. These regions have higher requirements for the technical performance, safety and service life of gas cylinders, so high value-added products dominate the market. Emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, South Asia, Africa and the Middle East are dominated by demand for mid- and low-end products and are more price sensitive. The regional distribution of the Chinese market is mainly in the eastern coastal areas, where industrial demand is strong and infrastructure is well-developed; at the same time, with the advancement of the country's clean energy policy, demand in inland and western regions is also growing rapidly. Southeast Asia and India, as regions with relatively fast regional economic development, have gradually become important export destinations. At the regional level, the Chinese market has changed rapidly in the past few years. The market size in 2023 is US$343 million, accounting for about 18.02% of the world. It is expected to reach US$556 million in 2030, and the global share will reach 20.12% by then.
At present, the world's major manufacturers include Worthington Industries, Cylinders Holding, Everest Kanto Cylinder, Rama Cylinders and Norris Cylinder Company. In 2023, the share of major manufacturers will exceed 54%. It is expected that the industry competition will become more intense in the next few years, especially in the Chinese market.
Looking ahead, the steel gas cylinder industry will usher in many development opportunities. The transformation of the global energy structure has created unprecedented growth space for the industry, especially in the fields of hydrogen energy storage and transportation and natural gas, and the demand for high-pressure and high-performance gas cylinders is increasing. At the same time, the innovation of manufacturing technology has promoted the widespread application of lightweight materials, high-strength design and intelligent monitoring technology for gas cylinders, which will greatly improve the safety and market competitiveness of products. In addition, the trend of globalization and the rise of emerging markets provide new possibilities for companies to expand into international markets.
