Market overview of the global cold insulation market
Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global cold insulation market to grow at a rate of 9% during the forecast period. The rising energy costs is a crucial driver for the growth of this market. Equipment such as refrigerators and air conditioners consume large amounts of energy and use cold insulation materials to minimize the energy loss.
The rise of infrastructural development has also positively contributed to the market growth. Greenfield projects, high rise buildings, residences and commercial spaces are being built all over the globe. These infrastructural developments are focusing on minimizing the use of energy leading to an increased usage of cold insulation materials.
Segmentation by type and analysis of the cold insulation market
- Fiberglass
- Polyurethane and polyisocyanurate foam
- Polystyrene foam
Fiberglass accounted for 56% of the market shares during 2014. A fiberglass is an eco-friendly form of cold insulation material. It is energy-efficient as well as easier and cheaper to produce than other cold insulation materials.
Segmentation by application and analysis of the cold insulation market
- Oil and gas industry
- Refrigeration
- Chemicals and cryogenic gases
- Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
The oil and gas industry led the global market during 2014 with a market share of around 64%. The report predicts this segment to grow at a rate of 8 % during the forecast period. Cold insulation materials are primarily used in the pipelines that run through a number of countries and continents. These pipelines are insulated with cold insulation materials to prevent varied temperatures having an effect on the oils and gases that are transported through these pipelines.
