Abstract
US demand to reach $15.2 billion in 2013
Industrial valve demand is forecast to increase less than one percent per year
to $15.2 billion in 2013. Gains will not match those registered during the
2003 to 2008 period when rising raw material costs supported price increases,
which in turn boosted value gains. Through 2013, unit prices are expected to
decline in response to decreasing raw material costs and, in inflation
adjusted terms, valve demand will actually strengthen through 2013. The US
market for industrial valves will also be fueled by an acceleration in
construction expenditures growth, and, in particular, a strong rebound in
residential construction spending from the low levels of 2008.
Growth in industrial valve exports to lag imports
US industrial valve manufacturers face intense competition from overseas
producers. Lower-end valves are increasingly being made in developing
countries with low labor costs, and more highly engineered valves are
manufactured in Western Europe and Japan. As a result, import growth is
forecast to outpace that of exports through 2013, and the considerable US
trade deficit in valves is expected to rise, albeit at a moderating pace.
Canada and Mexico are important export markets for US valve manufacturers.
Rapidly developing countries in Asia and Latin America will also provide good
growth prospects, particularly in process manufacturing and utilities
applications.
Construction market to post fastest annual gains
Process manufacturing industries and the utilities sector are the dominant
markets for industrial valves because of their heavy fluid handling
requirements. However, demand gains in these markets will be modest, as
shipment increases in most process manufacturing industries are expected to
moderate and utilities construction spending growth will not be as strong as
during the 2003 to 2008 period. The fastest gains through 2013 will be posted
in the construction market, with industrial valve sales expanding 2.4 percent
per year. Growth in this area will be supported by acceleration in building
construction expenditures, including an expected turnaround in residential
building spending. In 2008, original equipment manufacturing applications
accounted for more than two-thirds of total industrial valve demand and are
expected to remain the dominant source of valve sales for the foreseeable
future.
Standard industrial valves to outpace automatic types
Demand for standard valves is forecast to outpace that of automatic valves,
because more buyers will opt to purchase the less expensive standard valves as
nonresidential fixed investment slows, possibly upgrading them with separately
sold actuators at a later date.
Steel, alloys to remain dominant valve material
Steel and steel alloys will remain the most commonly utilized valve
construction materials due to their durability and strong performance in high
temperature, high stress applications. Although valve performance will
continue to be improved by advances in nontraditional materials (e.g.,
plastics, titanium and other metal alloys), steel and steel alloys will still
make up nearly one-half of valve demand in 2013.

US DEMAND FOR INDUSTRIAL VALVES TO REACH $15.2 BILLION IN 2013
August 4th, 2009
Industrial valve demand is forecast to increase less than one percent per year to
$15.2 billion in 2013. Although gains will not match those registered during the 2003-
2008 period, slowing growth will largely be due to changes in average valve prices.
Much of the robust market expansion during the 2003-2008 period was due to value
gains supported by price increases, which were caused by rising raw material costs.
Through 2013, unit prices are expected to remain flat or drop in response to decreasing
raw material costs. In fact, in inflation-adjusted terms, valve demand will strengthen
through 2013, bolstered by an acceleration in construction expenditures. These and
other trends are presented in Industrial Valves, a new study from The Freedonia
Group, Inc., a Cleveland-based industry research firm.
Trade plays a significant role in the industrial valve industry. US manufacturers
face intense competition from overseas producers. Lower-end valves are increasingly
being made in developing countries with low labor costs, and more highly engineered
valves are manufactured in Western Europe and Japan. As a result, import growth is
forecast to outpace that of exports, and the considerable US trade deficit in valves is
expected to rise, albeit at a moderating pace.
Demand for standard valves is forecast to outpace that of automatic valves. More
buyers will opt to purchase the less expensive standard valves as nonresidential fixed
investment slows, possibly upgrading them with separately sold actuators at a later
date. Steel and steel alloys will remain the most commonly utilized valve construction
materials due to their durability and strong performance in high temperature, high stress
applications. Although valve performance will continue to be improved by advances in
nontraditional materials (e.g., plastics, titanium and other metal alloys), steel and steel
alloys will still make up nearly one-half of valve demand in 2013.
Process manufacturing industries and utilities are the dominant markets for
industrial valves because of their heavy fluid handling requirements. However,
demand gains in these markets will be modest, as production increases in most process
manufacturing industries are expected to moderate and growth in utilities construction
spending will not be as strong as during the 2003-2008 period. The fastest gains
through 2013 will be posted in the construction market, with industrial valve sales
expanding 2.4 percent per year. In 2008, original equipment manufacturing applications
accounted for more than two-thirds of total industrial valve demand, and are expected to
remain the dominant source of valve sales for the foreseeable future.
