Air-Cooled Systems, Air Conditioning Applications, and Reciprocating Compressors Lead Market Dominance in 2023

By Type: The air-cooled segment led the market in 2023, accounting for more than 65% of the total share. These customer benefits drive their dominance with several key advantages, such as being more affordable than water-cooled systems, requiring no additional infrastructure like a cooling tower, while being easy to install and having low maintenance requirements. The small footprint and flexible installation of air-cooled systems have made them a popular choice for urban and space-limited situations and have led to widespread adoption in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. ​

By End-Use: In 2023, the air conditioning segment dominated the end-use category with over 48% of the market share. This is primarily because of the high usage of air conditioning systems in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. This is a trend spurred by factors like rising global temperatures, urbanization, and the growing demand for indoor comfort. The need for efficient climate control systems in commercial sectors such as offices, shopping malls, and hospitals has vastly increased as well. Fueling this trend are increasing disposable incomes coupled with changing lifestyles , especially in the residential air conditioning segment. The air conditioning segment is growing as development is focused on energy-efficient and smart devices, as they meet users’ demand for performance and sustainability. ​

By Application: The commercial segment held the largest market share in 2023, with over 53%, primarily due to increasing refrigeration needs across various commercial sectors. An effective cooling system is essential for supermarkets, restaurants, convenience stores, and cold storage facilities to preserve food and maintain product quality. The increasing usage of frozen and ready-to-eat food items has increased the need for dependable commercial refrigeration. In addition, the rapid growth of the global retail and hospitality industries has also driven this demand. Thermal insulation in commercial refrigeration systems needs to be high on durability, efficient, and low on maintenance, thus making it a crucial investment for businesses. These factors together have led to the growth and dominance of the commercial application segment in the refrigeration and cooling systems market. ​

By Compressor Type: In 2023, the reciprocating compressor segment dominated with more than 72% of the market share. Reciprocating compressors have the unique advantage of being able to operate at high pressure and under variable loads. They also require very little maintenance and are relatively easy to repair, which makes them economical for long-term use. Their small footprint enables incorporation into a variety of equipment, from compact refrigeration systems to large-scale HVAC installations. Industries like them for what they do because they help achieve accurate temperature control, which is a significant requirement for food processing, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing, thus fueling their strong market presence. ​
