Industry Overview

UK hydraulic hose market was valued at $175.6 million in 2024 and is projected to reach $323.4 million in 2035, growing at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period (2025-2035). Hydraulic hoses are used to transfer hydraulic fluid to or among hydraulic components operating at high pressure. It is designed to carry hydraulic fluids between different components, such as pumps, valves, tools, actuators, cylinders, and motors. The average life expectancy of a hydraulic hose is five years. The growing construction and manufacturing sector, advanced manufacturing plans, rising industrial automation and industrial activities, innovations in hydraulic hose technology, and advanced materials for enhanced durability are some of the major factors for the growth of the market in the country. The UK government has confirmed 5 investment zones, each with a cover of £160 million ($199.0 million) over 10 years, which focus on advanced manufacturing in South Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, East Midlands, West Midlands, and the North East, all of which have secured anchor investment from businesses in advanced manufacturing. All these operations are based on hydraulic systems and components, including hydraulic hoses.

Market Dynamics

Growing Technological Advancements with Smart Sensors and IoT Integration

The hydraulic hose industry is withstanding technological innovations, fueled by the demand for increased durability, efficiency, and sustainability. Innovations such as smart hoses equipped with integrated sensors can monitor pressure, temperature, and wear in real-time. These sensors offer valuable information, allowing for predictive maintenance and minimizing the risk of unexpected failures. This innovation enhances safety and ensures optimal performance in critical applications. The integration of Internet of Things technology in hydraulic hoses enables communication with control systems. This connectivity allows for remote monitoring and diagnostics, improving overall system efficiency and enabling quick response to potential issues. Companies like Eaton offer the Lifesense hydraulic hose condition monitoring system. The Lifesense system is designed to alert operators when a hydraulic hose is showing signs of failing internally. This type of hydraulic hose condition monitoring system helps customers manage their hydraulic-powered equipment more effectively and efficiently.

Rising Demand in Steel Plant Operations

In steel plants, hydraulic hoses function as both power sources and fluid conveyors for hydraulic fluids while providing stability to pressure systems. The development of innovative mechanisms for hydraulic hose technology enables more efficient functioning and safety alongside durability during operation in harsh environments. Steel production facilities utilize hydraulic hoses as key elements in their heavy machinery operations that include rolling mills as well as blast furnaces and hydraulic presses, and automated robotic systems. The hoses need to endure multiple harsh pressures combined with both high temperatures and harsh contact with abrasive substances. In June 2025, Tata Steel announced the construction of its low-carbon EAF-based steel-making project in the UK and will commence operations by 2027. The company has received necessary approvals for its $1.5 billion project at Port Talbot.

Construction Industry Leads the Market with the Largest Share

Hydraulic hoses are critical components in construction equipment. It enables the transfer of fluid power from the hydraulic system to the various parts of the equipment. Hydraulic hoses are used in construction equipment, including excavators, bulldozers, loaders, and cranes. The hydraulic system uses high-pressure fluid to power the hydraulic cylinders that move these components, and the fluid is transmitted through hydraulic hoses. According to the UK Office for National Statistics, total new work in Great Britain increased by £5,628 million ($7,001.2 million) in 2023, with growth in both private and public new work, which increased by 2.1% and 10.2%, respectively. The main contributors to this growth were private commercial, private infrastructure, and public other new work, increasing by 13.1%, 18.3% and 18.1%, respectively. This drives the demand for construction machinery. Hydraulic hoses can be routed through tight spaces and around corners, enabling equipment to maneuver in challenging environments. This makes hydraulic systems ideal for construction equipment that requires flexibility and movement.

Thermoplastic Hydraulic Hoses: A Key Segment in Market Growth

Thermoplastic hydraulic hoses are made of synthetic materials such as nylon, polyethylene, or polyurethane. It has resistance to chemicals, high flexibility, and a wide temperature range. Thermoplastic hydraulic hoses are lightweight compared to rubber hoses. This results in reduced fuel consumption and increased efficiency. This renders it suitable for usage in weight-saving applications, including mobile machinery or the aircraft industry. Furthermore, chemical resistance characteristics are provided by thermoplastic hydraulic hoses. It is resistant to oil, fuels, solvents, acids, and other harmful substances that are prevalent in the industrial setup. This makes it long-lasting and dependable even under heavy applications. Thermoplastic material has more ability to bend without losing performance or integrity. This flexibility makes installation simpler in confined spaces or complicated routing schemes with less chance of bends that will restrict fluid flow. Companies like Continental offer thermoplastic hydraulic hoses for medium and high-pressure petroleum, water, and synthetic-based fluids for mobile equipment.
