Fire protection system pipes encompass automatic sprinkler systems and other water conduits designed for firefighting and transporting water or other liquids to connect firefighting equipment. To facilitate easy identification by firefighters and other personnel, these pipes are typically painted red, distinguishing them from other water systems.
The primary types of fire protection system pipes include seamless pipes and welded pipes. Seamless pipes are hollow tubes crafted from a heated, solid circular steel "billet" that has been pushed or drawn over a form. These pipes can be composed of various materials, such as steel, CPVC, copper, and others. They find key applications in fire suppression systems and fire sprinkler systems, catering to major end users in residential, industrial, and commercial industries.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs on fire protection system pipes have affected global supply chains, raising costs for materials like steel, CPVC, and copper, and slowing project deployment. Residential, industrial, and commercial applications in regions such as North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific are most affected. Positive impacts include encouraging local manufacturing, diversifying suppliers, and accelerating innovation for cost-effective and durable fire protection solutions.
The fire protection system pipes market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides fire protection system pipes market statistics, including fire protection system pipes industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a fire protection system pipes market share, detailed fire protection system pipes market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the fire protection system pipes industry. This fire protection system pipes market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The fire protection system pipes market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $16.89 billion in 2025 to $18.02 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing adoption of fire sprinkler systems, rising demand in residential construction, increased focus on industrial fire safety, expansion of commercial buildings, use of steel and alloy pipes for durability.
The fire protection system pipes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $23.79 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of advanced fire suppression systems, growth in urban infrastructure and smart buildings, rising demand for corrosion-resistant and lightweight pipes, technological advancements in seamless and welded pipes, expansion in residential and commercial fire safety projects. Major trends in the forecast period include use of corrosion-resistant pipes in fire protection systems, integration of automatic fire sprinkler systems, adoption of cpvc and copper pipes for fire safety, enhancement in pipe strength and durability, implementation of standardized pipe color coding for easy identification.
The rising loss of human lives and property due to fire incidents is expected to significantly drive the growth of the fire protection system pipe market in the coming years. Fire incidents are tragic events that can lead to property damage, severe burn injuries, scarring, deformity, disability, long-term care requirements, and even fatalities. Fire protection system pipes play a crucial role in preventing fire-related damage, incorporating sprinklers and smoke detectors. When a fire occurs, smoke triggers the detectors, activating the sprinkler system, which helps control and extinguish the fire, thereby supporting market growth. For example, in November 2025, the National Fire Protection Association, a US-based international nonprofit organization, reported that local fire departments in the United States responded to an estimated 1.38 million fires in 2024, resulting in approximately 3,920 civilian fire deaths and 11,780 reported civilian fire injuries. Consequently, the rising loss of lives and property due to fire incidents is expected to propel the fire protection system pipes market.
Key players in the fire-stopping materials market are creating innovative products, including flexible epoxy technology, to improve fire protection performance, increase application efficiency, and meet stringent safety regulations, thereby delivering safer and more durable solutions for contemporary construction and infrastructure projects. Flexible epoxy technology refers to a specialized type of epoxy resin that offers enhanced flexibility and strong adhesion, making it suitable for high-performance applications like fire-resistant coatings. For example, in September 2024, Pittsburgh Plate Glass (PPG) Company, a paint and coating manufacturer based in the U.S., introduced the PPG STEELGUARD 951 epoxy intumescent fire protection coating in the Americas. This advanced intumescent coating is designed to provide superior fire protection for structural steel. When exposed to high temperatures, the coating expands, creating an insulating layer that slows down heat transfer to the steel, thereby helping to maintain the structural integrity of steel structures during a fire and allowing critical time for evacuation and emergency response.
In December 2025, Aliaxis SA, a Belgium-based company specializing in building products and piping systems, acquired Johnson Controls' CPVC pipe fittings business for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Aliaxis aims to expand its portfolio of residential and light commercial sprinkler systems and strengthen its presence in the fire protection and plumbing market. Johnson Controls International plc is a U.S.-based provider of CPVC pipe fittings specifically designed for residential and light commercial sprinkler systems.
