Industrial Insulation Market Outlook - 2031
The global industrial insulation market size was valued at $7.8 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $12.7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2031.
Insulation promotes improved machine performance and eliminates the heat transfer out of the equipment system. It also provides frost protection to pipelines at low temperatures, making it ideal for transportation equipment.
Increase in demand for enhancing equipment efficiency and process performance among application industries is expected to serve as a crucial growth factor for the industrial insulation market. Also, increase in demand for industrial insulation due to rise in construction, industrial, and infrastructure activities globally, and the growing demand for energy conservation further propel the industrial insulation market. Further, industrial insulation has been used to safeguard boilers, furnaces, chimneys, temperature storage tanks, and other power sector equipment. It is a vital part of power plant installation and operation. It assists steam-generating boilers in maintaining specific temperatures. Consequently, the increasing demand from boilers, furnaces, chimneys, and temperature storage tanks industry of insulation coupled with growth in power industry is predicted to surge the demand for industrial insulation during the forecast period.
Moreover, the industrial insulation industry is heavily influenced by the needs of oil and gas, steel, manufacturing, electricity, and other industries operating on high temperature or radiant systems. The expanding industrial sector and associated stringent safety and emission standards are expected to stimulate demand for industrial insulation. In addition, companies are focused on improving performance by reducing losses by adhering to regular maintenance practices that often require insulation replacement. This practice is expected to accelerate market growth during the forecast period.
However, the cost of installing insulating materials is relatively high due to the need for different approvals, regulation citations, and professional personnel. This hampers the growth of the industrial insulation market. On the contrary, growth in the building & construction industry is expected to generate lucrative opportunities for the global industrial insulation market growth.
