Drivers – Indian Air Compressor Market

  • Technological innovations, and high demand for portable air compressor are driving the air compressors market growth

The growing popularity of air compressors is the innovation that goes into newer models in the air compressors market. As manufacturers in India have been introducing new types of reciprocating and rotary screw air compressors, the machines become more robust, easier to operate and better equipped for some of the most demanding applications across wide range of industrial uses. As there is advancements in technology, more industries are harnessing the potential of compressed air as an energy alternative and users of air compressors trade up their equipment for newer models. Replacement of equipment with new and improved technology air compressors leads to boosted efficiency, greater ease of use and overall savings in operating costs. These qualities have been compelling users of air compressors to replace their machines regularly, thereby driving the market growth.

  • Growing demand for air compressors from end user industries such as automotive, power and other manufacturing industries

There has been increasing demand of air compressors from many industries. For instance, air compressors are used in automotive industry for various applications such as air operated robots, plasma cutting and welding, tire inflation, automobile finishing and many others. According to International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), the production of cars and commercial vehicles in India has been increased from 4.48 million to 5.17 million vehicles during 2016 to 2018. With the growing production of vehicles, there is increase in demand for air compressors. According to the Energy Statistics by Central Statistics Office, India boasts of approximately 344,002.39 MW power capacity that includes hydro, thermal, and nuclear power plants across the country. Additionally, the generation of electricity has been increased by 5.71% and the consumption increased by 7.39% during 2017-2018 period. Due to the increase in population and rapid urbanization, the demand for electricity is gaining a profitable momentum resulting into an augmented power generation which in turn creating demand for air compressors as they are an indispensable part of a power-plant, thereby driving the market growth.

Challenges – Indian Air Compressor Market

  • The high cost of installation and maintenance for the equipment

The cost of air compressors ranges from $100-$600 depending on the application. Other hidden costs such as installation and operational costs associated with it restrain the market growth. Additionally, air compressors are extremely susceptible to over-heating. Compressed air can generate lots of heat and all that hot air has to be removed before it reaches to the warning temperature as it can cause damage to the system. High temperature may cause damage the air compressor over a period of time, so identification a temperature problem early is critical. Therefore, high cost of and maintenance problems have been hampering the growth of air compressors market.
