The U.S. industrial cooling systems market size is expected to reach USD 16.58 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "U.S. Industrial Cooling Systems Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Product (Hybrid Cooling, Water Cooling, Air Cooling, Evaporative Cooling), By Offering, By Components, By End Use; Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Industrial cooling systems are engineered thermal management solutions designed to regulate process heat and maintain equipment efficiency across industrial operations. The U.S. market is driven by the increasing enforcement of federal and state-level environmental regulations related to water usage and emissions. This regulatory pressure is compelling industries to transition from traditional cooling methods to more sustainable systems, such as hybrid and closed-loop technologies, that offer higher efficiency and lower environmental impact. The shift reflects a broader move toward compliance-driven innovation, where cooling solutions are expected to align with environmental sustainability goals without compromising operational performance.
The growing replacement of aging HVAC and industrial cooling infrastructure across the country drives the U.S. industrial cooling systems market opportunities. There is a noticeable demand for modern, high-efficiency cooling technologies, with a substantial portion of industrial facilities operating legacy systems that are energy-inefficient and costly to maintain. This trend is further reinforced by advancements in industrial automation and smart control systems and automation, which enable better monitoring, diagnostics, and energy management. Therefore, as industries prioritize operational continuity and cost optimization, investments in next-generation cooling systems are becoming a strategic necessity, reinforcing the modernization of the country's industrial cooling landscape.
In terms of product, the water cooling segment led the market with 39% revenue share in 2024, favored for its thermal efficiency and cost-effectiveness across industries.
In terms of component, the chillers segment dominated in 2024, as they are critical for large-scale applications requiring precise temperature control.
Based on offering, the aftermarket services segment will grow fastest during the forecast period, fueled by demand for system reliability, uptime, and regulatory compliance.
Based on end use, the pharmaceuticals segment will grow the fastest during the forecast period, driven by strict temperature control needs in drug production and storage.
A few key market players include API Heat Transfer; Baltimore Aircoil Company, Inc.; Brentwood Industries, Inc.; Chart Industries; Colmac Coil Manufacturing, Inc.; CTS, Inc.; Delta Cooling Towers, Inc.; EVAPCO, Inc; Johnson Controls; and SPX Cooling Tech, LLC.
