Market Ecosystem:

The ecosystem of the global industrial air compressor market starts with the manufacturer of basic components, such as valves, bearings, motor, engine, plates, inlet fins, filters, regulator, storage tank, and piston among others. The manufactured parts are then assembled by the OEM (Gardner Denver, Inc., Ingersoll-Rand plc, Atlas Copco AB, GE Oil & Gas and so on) to form an industrial air compressor, which is then tested. This stage is followed by the distribution stage, following which the product is provided to the end-users.

The global industrial air compressor market is projected to reach USD 34.87 Billion by 2021, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2016 to 2021. This growth can be attributed to growing demand for advanced and efficient air compressors and growth of cross border oil & gas pipeline network.

The industrial air compressors are used to increase pressure by converting power into potential energy, which is stored as pressurized air. This pressurized air is used to power pneumatic tools, to compress gas for transport, cutting & welding, packaging, cooling and freezing, among other applications. This has led to the increasing installation of air compressors across industries.

The positive displacement air compressor segment is estimated to dominate the industrial air compressor market, by product type. The demand for positive displacement air compressors is fueled by its wide range of application and the growing demand for air and gas compression across industries. Significant investments are being made across the world to improve cross border oil & gas transportation network, rapid industrialization in emerging economies, and high demand for processed food are also likely to be among the major driving factors. Moreover, the growth of industries such as chemicals and petrochemicals, manufacturing, power generation, pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper, and food and beverage, is also expected to boost the demand for these air compressors.

The Asia-Pacific is estimated to lead the industrial air compressor market, in terms of growth rate as well as market size, from 2016 to 2021. High growth in the power generation, food and beverages and pharmaceuticals sectors and new and proactive policy reforms to support the growth of the manufacturing sector in India and China are key factors driving the market in this region. China is estimated to be the largest market globally, and is set to grow at promising CAGR from 2016 to 2021. India is expected to follow, registering the second-highest growth rate during the same period.

Industrial Air Compressor Market

Countries such as the U.K., the U.S., Germany, and France are investing in cleaner and renewable power generation methods. This has reduced the demand for air compressors in the power generation industry. Furthermore, slow industrial growth and the economic recession are also expected to affect the demand for industrial air compressors and restrict market growth. For instance, the demand for air compressors in the upstream oil & gas industry witnessed a drastic fall due to the slump in oil prices.

Leading players in the industrial air compressor market include Atlas Copco AB (Sweden), Doosan Infracore Co. Ltd. (South Korea), Gardner Denver, Inc. (U.S.), Ingersoll-Rand plc (Ireland), and Hitachi Ltd (Japan). New product/service/technology launch is the strategy most widely adopted by players in the industrial air compressor market.
