Industrial Air Blower Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2030)

An Industrial blower is a device that increases the airflow in a very efficient and effective way, it does so with the help of an electric motor, impeller, and airfoils that are installed in a tightly sealed housing. The main function of an industrial blower is to supply a large volume of air or gas to the various processes in the industries and offers functionality like combustion, exhaust and ventilation, aeration, particulate transport, cooling, air cleaning, and drying are some of many, and have applications in almost all industries such as agricultural, chemical, medical, oil and gas, automotive, food processing, mining, construction, etc use blowers for their specific needs.

The Industrial Air Blower market is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of around 4.5% during the forecast period owing to the rise in industrialization and manufacturing activities. Furthermore, with the increasing consumption of the population which is forecasted to reach USD 62 trillion by the year 2025, manufacturers will have to keep up with the rising demand, which will require the development of new manufacturing plants or capacity expansion of the existing ones, thus creating a huge demand for the industrial air blowers going forward being one of the main equipment in the manufacturing facility infrastructure. Additionally, as emerging economies are more focused on high rates of economic growth, governments of emerging economies are often inclined towards implementing policies that support industrialization, as it leads to lower unemployment, higher disposable income, higher investments, and better infrastructure and as this cycle runs it further increases the demand, increasing manufacturing activities, and will have a direct impact on the industrial air blowers market growth. For instance, the Indian government announced that it has allocated USD 26 billion in their Union budget in the financial year 2021-22 under the production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for 14 important manufacturing sectors to improve India's manufacturing capabilities.

Based on blower type, the market is segmented into positive displacement blower, centrifugal blower, regenerative blower, high speed blower, helical screw blower, and axial blower. Out of all, centrifugal blower holds a significant market share owing to reasons like they are designed to generate large airflow volume with moderate pressure making them ideal for ventilation systems, HVAC systems, and industrial processes requiring air movement, also they operate at higher efficiency of almost 84% with impressively low power consumption which makes it very cost-effective as well, centrifugal blower is crafted with self-cleaning components which makes them tremendously low maintenance, additionally, being one of the most popular industrial air handling tools, centrifugal blowers are offered in a vast product range, meeting the various needs of the consumers.

Based on application, the market is segmented into industrial ventilation, air handling, material handling, power generation, dust loading, and fume extraction. Out of all this, industrial air blowers are widely used for industrial ventilation. Ventilation is a crucial part of the industrial cooling process which removes hot and contaminated air from the workspace with fresh cool air, as the amount required for adequate ventilation can be huge in large factories and warehouses hence industrial blowers are used which helps in maintaining the air quality and prevent building up of harmful pollutants and chemicals. Additionally, they are also used for spot cooling of workstations, machinery, and equipment preventing overheating which extends the lifespan of the equipment.

Based on the end-user industry, the market is segmented into food and beverages, pharmaceutical, chemical and petrochemical, powerplant, semiconductor industry, cement industry, metal manufacturing and processing industry, and others. The food and beverages and pharmaceutical industry creates the highest demand for industrial blowers owing to the fact that blowers are a very significant part of the food industry with huge direct and indirect applications such as drying, material handling, cooling and refrigeration, fumes extraction, and storage and packaging. Moreover, adequate ventilation is required for enhancing the shelf life of the food items and preventing their contamination, and industrial blowers are used for this. Furthermore, with rising consumption and income of the people foods and beverages industry and the pharma industry are growing at a significant and steady rate which will further create the demand for industrial air blowers in these industries.

For a better understanding of the market adoption of the Industrial Air Blowers, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in the countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, and the Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, U.K., France, Spain, Italy, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. The Industrial Air Blower market in the Asia Pacific region held the largest market share and is expected to maintain its growth throughout the forecast period. Owing to the rising per capita GDP of the countries in the Asia Pacific, improving the standard of living and increasing money in the hands of people is driving the consumption of the countries, and fueling the growth of industrialization in order to cater to the rising demands. Furthermore, with governments focus on increasing the manufacturing base of the countries in the emerging economies are high in order to accelerate their economic growth, whereas governments of emerging economies are focusing more on in-house manufacturing for the consumption of their own population so that they have to import less, as well as also looking for opportunities in export markets, hence floating lots of subsidies, tax incentives, and policies that can fuel the growth, and this increasing trend of industrialization, is boosting the demand for the industrial air blowers. For instance, on February 2023, the state government of Uttar Pradesh(UP), an Indian State, announced that it has received USD 300 billion in investments proposals at the Uttar Pradesh Global Investor Summit (USGIS), where 56% of total investment proposals where from the manufacturing industry, and is made possible due to governments policies like the ease of doing business, and ease of starting a business.

Some of the major players operating in the market include: Systemair AB; Atlantic Blowers; Chicago Blower Corporation; AirPro Fan.; Air Control Industries In; New York Blower Company; Peerless Blowers; Rogers Machinery; Markair, Inc; and Hitachi, Ltd.
