Compressor Market Is Estimated To Witness High Growth Owing To Rising Industrialization and Urbanization

The Compressor Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 42.6 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Overview:
Compressors play a vital role in various industries such as oil & gas, power generation,food & beverage, chemical, petrochemical, and others by compressing different gases including air, natural gas, carbon dioxide, and others. They help in transporting natural gas through pipelines over long distances and injecting carbon dioxide into oil wells to enhance oil recovery. They are widely used in industries for manufacturing processes that require compressed air or gas like spray painting, aeration, material handling, packaging, drying processes, and others.

Market key trends:
Rapid industrialization and urbanization in developing economies has been a major factor driving the demand for compressors. Industrial activities such as manufacturing, mining, oil & gas exploration along with infrastructure development require compressors. Countries such as China, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, South Africa and others have witnessed significant industrial and infrastructure growth over the past few decades. According to the United Nations, the urban population in the world is expected to rise by nearly 70% to reach around 6.5 billion by 2050. This rapid urbanization and industrialization will boost the demand for compressors in power generation, refrigeration, construction activities and other industrial processes. Rising demand in end use industries and focus on energy efficient products are the major market trends anticipated to drive the compressor market over the forecast period.
