Metering Pumps Global Market Report 2025

A metering pump is a device that precisely measures the volumetric flow rate by moving a specific amount of liquid over a predetermined period. These pumps play a crucial role in enabling utilities to automatically collect consumption data, reduce the need for manual meter reading, enhance efficiency, and save costs.

The main types of metering pumps include diaphragm pumps, piston/plunger pumps, and others. Diaphragm metering pumps move liquid using a flexible membrane instead of a piston or plunger. The pumping chamber's capacity is enlarged, allowing fluid to be drawn into the device by expanding the diaphragm. When the diaphragm is compressed, the volume is reduced, releasing some fluid. Diaphragm pumps are particularly advantageous for pumping hazardous fluids. Metering pumps are distributed through both direct and distribution channels and find applications in various industries, including water treatment, petrochemicals and oil and gas, automotive, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, pulp and paper, textile, and others.

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.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and rising trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a substantial impact on the machinery sector, driving up the costs of essential components such as steel, hydraulic systems, and precision bearings many of which are sourced from regions affected by the tariffs. Manufacturers of construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery are now facing tighter profit margins, as existing long-term contracts limit their ability to raise prices immediately. This climate of uncertainty has also led to postponed investments in automation and smart machinery, slowing potential productivity improvements. In response, companies are focusing on developing local suppliers, redesigning products to incorporate alternative materials, and adopting predictive maintenance strategies to extend equipment life and reduce the need for costly replacements.

The metering pumps market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides metering pumps market statistics, including metering pumps industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a metering pumps market share, detailed metering pumps market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the metering pumps industry. This metering pumps 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 metering pumps market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $6.33 billion in 2024 to $6.59 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial advancements, focus on efficiency, rise in chemical processing industries, demand for precise fluid control, automation and control systems.

The metering pumps market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.18 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to industry digitization, rise in chemical industry, focus on pharmaceutical manufacturing, adoption of IoT and remote monitoring, shift towards sustainable solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include modularity and customization, increased connectivity and integration, focus on efficiency and precision, shift towards eco-friendly solutions, development of compact and portable models.

The forecast of 5.6% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.5% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for critical components like ceramic plungers and stepper motor drives, sourced from key regions such as Germany, Switzerland, and Japan, which could lead to higher costs for chemical dosing applications. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The anticipated growth in demand for sustainable water supply in various industries is poised to drive the metering pumps market in the forecast period. Sustainable water supply involves identifying reliable and resilient solutions to diverse human water demands that do not deplete water resources or harm the local economy, ensuring no long-term adverse impact on the environment. The implementation of water-saving methods through smart water metering not only saves money but also diverts less water from rivers, bays, and estuaries, contributing to environmental health. For instance, in February 2022, BASF, a German chemical producer, reported that 78.5% of their total water demand (1695 million cubic meters) was covered by reused water. The increasing emphasis on wastewater treatment is expected to fuel the demand for metering pumps.

The rising demand in the oil and gas industry is projected to propel the growth of the metering pumps market. The oil and gas industry encompasses activities related to the exploration, extraction, refining, transportation, and marketing of petroleum products. Metering pumps provide precise and reliable fluid control, contributing to operational efficiency, cost savings, and compliance with safety and environmental regulations in the oil and gas sector. For instance, as of October 2023, the U.S. Energy Information Administration anticipates an increase in U.S. crude oil output to 12.4 million b/d in 2023, up from the record-high of 11.7 million b/d in 2022. Additionally, in September 2022, the U.S. consumed an average of 86.6 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day (Bcf/d) in 2022. Thus, the growing demand in the oil and gas industry is a significant driver for the metering pumps market.

Technological advancement is a prominent trend gaining traction in the metering pumps market. Companies in the market are focusing on harnessing connected technologies and data analysis to develop more efficient and energy-conscious metering pumps. For example, in May 2022, SEKO, a U.S.-based chemical dosing pump manufacturer, introduced KommBox, a device that physically connects to compatible SEKO metering pumps, enabling them to connect to the internet. This innovation empowers operators to remotely monitor and control their processes, providing a comprehensive view of expenses, facilitating programming modifications, real-time monitoring of system performance, and analyzing past data.

Major companies operating in the metering pumps market are directing their efforts toward innovative products, such as polymer metering pumps, to drive revenues. Polymer metering pumps are specialized pumps designed for the precise and consistent measurement of liquid polymers such as polyacrylamide (PAM), flocculants, and coagulants. These polymers are crucial in various applications, notably in wastewater treatment processes. For instance, in February 2023, Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group, a UK-based manufacturer of peristaltic pumps and tubing, launched polymer metering pumps tailored for the accurate dosing of polymers. These pumps are essential for wastewater treatment, capable of handling complex polymers and ensuring effective dewatering and treatment.

In January 2022, Landis+Gyr, a Switzerland-based manufacturer of meters and software for electricity and gas utilities, acquired Luna Elektrik Elektronik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. ('Luna') for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Luna, a Turkey-based provider of smart metering devices and software solutions for electricity, water, and heat, becomes part of the Landis+Gyr group, allowing continued leadership by Luna's existing top management in driving market expansion and profitable growth.
