The expansion valves market is projected to total USD 17.3 Billion in 2033 from USD 11.5 Billion in 2024 at a CAGR of 4.2%. Expansion Valves are widely used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems to modulate the flow of refrigerants. This facilitates precise control of superheating and promotes compressor efficiency. This aids in compressor safety and prolongs service life by preventing leakage of refrigerants. Global warming and rapid urbanization, have prompted the rapid adoption of air conditioning systems.
Diverse applications across industries such as the cold storage industry, construction, and tourism are key market drivers. As residential and commercial construction standards improve, consumers are developing a penchant for electronic expansion valves over thermal expansion valves.
Construction Industry Application Projected to Rise
Commercial spaces are finding wide applications for advanced air conditioning systems. There is high demand for cooling systems embedded with air purification filters and investors. Expansion valve manufacturers have to cater to rapidly evolving consumer preferences.
In retail facilities, maintaining temperature is critical to preserving sophisticated equipment and perishables.
Automotive Industry Utility is Evolving
The automotive industry is increasingly becoming one of the largest end-user segments for the expansion vales market. With the expansion of the electric vehicle segment, manufacturers have to develop highly sophisticated variants. The supply-demand is also rising for the autonomous vehicle and passenger vehicle manufacturing segment.
Key Market Developments:
- Recently, Danfoss has launched a new line of components that aid OEMs to manufacture R32-based air conditioning systems. Colibri electronic expansion valves, TGE, TR6 expansion valves, and MCHE crafted for R32 are the important variants in this range.
- Recently, The EGELHOF Group launched an electronic expansion valve (EXV) for application in automotive air conditioning systems. It comes with several evaporators for the front, rear, or roof air conditioning systems. It also features fixed and variable stroke compressors.
- In February 2022, BorgWarner signed equity with Santroll Electric Auto and Santroll Automotive Components. Thus, BorgWarner is to acquire Santroll Automotive Components to strengthen the company’s overall product portfolio
Key Market Players Drive Growth Through Innovation
With rapidly evolving consumer demands, key players have to formulate advanced methodologies to sustain market growth. This includes shifting to efficient manufacturing practices. For instance, in 2020, FabLab, a start-up was able to manufacture 3D print valves for critical care patients. The valves were in line with all safety regulations and found critical application in time of need.
