Europe Refrigeration Insulation Materials Market Research Report Forecast to 2028
Market Overview
The Europe refrigeration insulation materials market was valued at USD 1,614.65 million in 2020 and is expected to register a CAGR of 4.88% to reach USD 2,362.16 million by the end of 2028. In terms of volume, the market was pegged at 369.10 kilotons in 2020 and the demand is projected to reach 495.96 kilotons by the end of 2028. Insulation is a material or a blend of two or more materials that can be used to avoid heat loss or heat gain to save valuable energy. The material is available in any size or shapes for different applications. Refrigeration insulation materials lower refrigeration equipment operating costs. Insulation in an industrial refrigeration system helps to limit heat gains, ensuring that the compressor load does not become excessive. It connects the evaporator, accompanying vessels, compressor, and auxiliary equipment through piping. Insulation is also used to prevent condensation and ice formation, save energy, and prevent corrosion. As a result, refrigeration insulation materials are critical for effective cooling.
The key factor driving the growth of the Europe refrigeration insulation materials market is the growing demand from key end-users such as aerospace & defense, wind energy, and automotive industries. The demand for cryogenic applications and the growing demand for commercial refrigeration is driving the Europe refrigeration insulation materials market. Nevertheless, the robust demand for eco-friendly insulation material and new product launches from key manufacturers are likely to create extensive market growth opportunities.

Regional Analysis
The increase in demand for refrigeration insulation in Europe will be driven by measures for greenhouse gas emissions reduction, cost efficiency, expanding food & beverage industry, high demand from commercial refrigeration, and government regulations on energy-efficient buildings. Europe is the largest market for refrigeration material globally, followed by North America. The implementation of the revised EU legislation on insulation material is expected to boost the penetration of refrigeration insulation in the region and will increase the amount of insulation needed as per end-user requirements. Further, there are many companies and SMEs in Europe that manufacture and supply insulation materials. For example, the polyurethane insulation industry in Europe involves about 61,800 companies. The expanded polystyrene industry is most fragmented, with around 20 raw material producers and around 1000 converting companies.
