An industrial centrifuge is a machine employed in industries to separate fluids or particles, such as solids from liquids, liquid-liquid separation, and liquid-liquid-solid separation. Centrifuges operate by harnessing centrifugal force, generating forces several thousand times Earth's gravity.
The primary types of industrial centrifuges are sedimentation centrifuges and filtering centrifuges. Sedimentation centrifuges utilize centrifugal force for separating solids from liquids and two liquids with different specific gravities. These centrifuges operate through batch or continuous modes and are designed horizontally or vertically. Industries such as chemical, food and beverages, metal processing, mining, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, power, pulp and paper, wastewater treatment, and water purification predominantly use industrial centrifuges.
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 are affecting the industrial centrifuge market by increasing the cost of imported stainless steel drums, bearings, drive motors, and control systems. Chemical, pharmaceutical, and mining industries in North America and Europe are most impacted due to reliance on imported centrifuge systems, while Asia-Pacific exporters face pricing pressure. These tariffs are increasing capital costs and delaying equipment upgrades. However, they are also driving domestic manufacturing, localized component sourcing, and innovation in robust and energy-efficient centrifuge designs.
The industrial centrifuge market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides industrial centrifuge market statistics, including industrial centrifuge industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a industrial centrifuge market share, detailed industrial centrifuge market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the industrial centrifuge industry. This industrial centrifuge 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 industrial centrifuge market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.06 billion in 2025 to $10.67 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial process optimization, growth of chemical processing, demand for solid-liquid separation, expansion of mining activities, food processing industry growth.
The industrial centrifuge market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.61 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to process automation adoption, stricter wastewater regulations, growth in pharmaceutical manufacturing, demand for energy-efficient equipment, industrial digitalization. Major trends in the forecast period include automation of separation processes, rising demand for high-speed centrifugation, adoption of energy-efficient centrifuges, expansion of continuous processing systems, growth in industrial wastewater treatment.
The growing chemical industry is expected to propel the growth of the industrial centrifuge market going forward. The chemical industry involves the large-scale production and processing of chemicals used in manufacturing a wide variety of industrial and consumer goods. Industrial centrifuges play a critical role in this sector by separating and purifying substances-such as solids from liquids or different liquid phases-through high-speed rotation. For instance, in November 2023, according to the American Chemistry Council (ACC), the Global Chemical Production Regional Index (Global CPRI) increased by 0.6% in September, following a similar 0.6% gain in August. Chemical production grew across all regions, with South America recording the highest increase. These indices are calculated using a three-month moving average (3MMA) to reduce monthly volatility. Therefore, the growing chemical industry is driving the growth of the industrial centrifuge market.
Major companies operating in the industrial centrifuge market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as food-grade decanter centrifuge systems, to enhance separation efficiency, improve product yield, and meet stringent hygiene standards in food processing, wastewater treatment, and industrial applications. Food-grade decanter centrifuge systems are specialized centrifuges designed for 2-phase (solid/liquid) and 3-phase (oil/water/solid) separations, offering high throughput, automated control, and compliance with strict food safety requirements-capabilities that traditional centrifuges cannot consistently achieve. For instance, in April 2025, MSE Hiller, a UK-based centrifuge supply company, launched the "DecaFood" series, a new line of food-grade centrifuges with capacities ranging from 1 to 100 m3/hour, gas-tight and ATEX-rated options for hazardous environments, and configurations optimized for food oils, juices, proteins, and other liquid products. These systems deliver high separation efficiency, support oil and fat recovery or juice clarification, uphold food-grade hygiene, and improve the yield of valuable by-products, enabling operators to boost productivity, reduce waste, and comply with regulatory standards.
In May 2025, Strive Equity Partners, a Canada-based investment firm, acquired Sentrimax Centrifuges Inc. for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Strive Equity Partners aims to expand its industrial portfolio by leveraging Sentrimax's specialized centrifuge technologies and established customer base to drive growth and operational synergies. Sentrimax Centrifuges Inc. is a Canada-based industrial equipment company specializing in designing, manufacturing, and servicing industrial centrifuges for a wide range of applications.
