According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global industrial pipe market looks promising with opportunities in power generation, petrochemical, automotive, and industrial processing. The global industrial pipe market is expected to decline in 2020 due to the global economic recession led by COVID-19. However, the market will witness recovery in the year 2021 and it is expected to grow 6%-8% from 2020 to 2026. The major drivers for this market are increasing construction of new pipelines, replacement of aging pipelines, urbanization rate, and infrastructure development.
In this market, steel, ductile iron, plastic, and fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP) materials are used for pipe manufacturing for various end use industries. On the basis of comprehensive research, Lucintel forecasts that the steel pipe is expected to remain the largest material segment over the forecast period due to increasing demand for steel pipes in power generation and petrochemical industries. Lucintel predicts that the plastic pipe material segment will witness the highest growth during the forecast period because of low cost, light weight and corrosion resistant.
Within the global industrial pipe market, petrochemical will remain the largest end use industry during the forecast period due to increasing investments in new ventures and up-gradation of petrochemical facilities.
APAC is expected to remain the largest region and witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to increasing infrastructure development, urbanization and government economic stimulus measures in this region.
Emerging trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include increasing use of dopeless technology in pipe manufacturing to reduce operational risk and development of multilayer pipe to increase strength and durability. Vallourec, TMK, Tenaris, China Lesso, ArcelorMittal, Orbia Advance Corporation, Sekisui Chemicals, Advanced Drainage System, Amiantit, and Future Pipe are among the major suppliers of industrial pipes.
