The global industrial plugs & sockets market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.82% from 2016 to 2021, to reach a market size of USD 3.60 Billion by 2021. This growth is attributed to the growth of the manufacturing sector in South Asian countries and investments in sectors other than oil & gas in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

The report segments the industrial plugs & sockets market on the basis of type into plugs and sockets. The sockets segment is projected to dominate the industrial plugs & sockets market.

The industrial plugs & sockets market is segmented based on protection into dustproof & splash-proof, water-proof, and explosion-proof. The dustproof & splash-proof subsegment accounted for the largest market share in 2015. These industrial plugs & sockets are being increasingly adopted due to their wide application in various industries. The dustproof & splash-proof segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The report segments the industrial plugs & sockets market based on end-user into oil & gas, power generation, chemical & pharmaceutical, heavy industry, and other industries. The heavy industry segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. Heavy industries include metals & mining, construction, food processing, automotive, and textile. The growth of these sectors, particularly food processing, textile, and automotive, will likely drive heavy industry segment. This segment is expected to create new revenue pockets for the industrial plugs & sockets market during the forecast period.

In this report, the industrial plugs & sockets market has been analyzed with respect to five regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, the Middle East, and Africa. Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the global industrial plugs & sockets market during the forecast period, owing to the extensive use of these devices in heavy industries such as steel, automotive, and other manufacturing industries.

The Asia-Pacific market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2016 to 2021. The region is the largest market for construction. The growth in the manufacturing sector, especially in Southeast Asian countries, coupled with the increase in power generation capacity in India, is expected to drive the industrial plugs & sockets market in Asia-Pacific.

Headwinds in the Chinese infrastructure sector could be a restraint for the industrial plugs & sockets market, as plugs & sockets form an important part of the sector. Additionally, plugs & sockets form a crucial part of the mining and any infrastructural sector. Thus, a slowdown in these sectors could hinder the growth of the industrial plugs & sockets market.

Leading players in the industrial plugs & sockets market include Legrand SA (France), Amphenol Corporation (U.S.), Mennekes (Germany), and Marechal Electric Company (France). New product launch was the strategy most commonly adopted by top players in the market, constituting 33% of the total developments from 2013 to 2016. It was followed by expansion, new product development, and mergers & acquisitions.
