Report Scope
This marketing report covers all aspects of the global compressor market. As the compressor market is dependent on the macroeconomics and social developments, the key macro and socio indicators are analyzed and forecasted through 2023. To give more insights on the market changes, the market analysis is segmented by general types (dynamic displacement and positive displacement), seal type (lubricated and oil-free) and portability (portable and stationary). Also, the study investigates end users and applications, and breaks sales down through a variety of channels that allows distributors to investigate sales channel strategies and define sales tools.
A compressor is a device that increases the pressure of a substance (usually an air or a gas) by reducing its substance. Compressors segments covered in this report include:
By product type:
- Dynamic displacement compressors (including centrifugal): here, the mechanical linkage reduces the volume of air or gas physically to increase pressure.
- Positive displacement (rotary and reciprocating): this type of compressor provides some velocity to an air or a gas which is then diffused, resulting in increased pressure.
By seal type:
- Lubricated compressor.
- Oil free compressor.
- By portability type:
- Stationary compressors.
- Portable compressors.
Market segments by application (home appliances, oil and gas, energy, manufacturing, food and beverage, healthcare, construction, chemical, others) and end-user sector (industrial, agricultural, households, others) will are studied as well.
This report does not touch on subtypes of rotary and reciprocating compressors like membranous, pistons, plates and spirals.
As technology is the key driver of the compressor market, innovations and tech trends are studied in this report. Analysis of value chains is the very important part of work as it allows to figure out the role of the market players within the compressors manufacturing and sales business.
The market analysis breakdown by regions is: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa, Middle East and Latin America. Some key countries are analyzed within regions as their influence defines the key trends and changes on the regional markets.
International trade by the equipment and machinery building products is highly affected by tariffs and non-tariff regulations. This issue is studied within this report. All tariff rates for major importing countries as well as legal requirements and certifications are presented as well.
Also, there is a particular focus on key manufacturers and distributors regarding their performance, innovations and development strategies.
