Market Analysis
The industrial air compressor market size will grow at a healthy 7.02% CAGR between the forecast period 2023- 2030, states the recent Market Research Future (MRFR) analysis.
An air compressor, simply put, is a device which converts power by using electric motors, gasoline or diesel engine and others into potential energy that is stored as pressurized air.
Various factors are propelling the industrial air compressor industry growth. According to the recent MRFR report, such factors include ease of maintenance and energy efficiency, increasing industrialization, growing demand for energy-efficient compressors, rising energy consumption, expanding liquefaction facilities, advancements in compressor technology, focus on energy savings, growing investments to improve cross-border oil and gas transportation network, demand for processed food, need for an efficient and advanced air compressor, and growth of various industries such as food and beverage, pulp and paper, power generation, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and petrochemicals.
On the contrary, high maintenance cost, availability of rental services, strict government legislation related to greenhouse gas emissions and noise pollution, and the current COVID-19 pandemic are factors that may impede the global air compressor market growth over the forecast period.
