A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Industrial Gear Oil Market Driver
Global urbanization and industrialization are key factors driving the growth of the global industrial gear oil market. Global urbanization and industrialization are always on the growing side, with some of the co-mediators having a consistent demand for commodities such as iron in ferroalloy metals, bauxite in non-ferrous metals, gold and silver in precious metals, gypsum and talc in industrial minerals, and coal in energy or mineral fuels. These commodities are an essential part of many day-to-day household and construction industry requirements. In addition, there are a few other mineral types, such as lithium, that are slowly gaining pace. In the coming years, these minerals can be one of the leading drivers of the metal and mining industry.
Moreover, with the increasing global mineral production, the need for minerals will remain high in the coming years as well. This demand for minerals is in tandem with the growth of the manufacturing, construction, energy, and chemical industries worldwide. The growth in the mineral mining industry will drive the demand for mining equipment and machinery, thus, contributing to the growth of the global industrial lubricants market during the forecast period.
Significant Industrial Gear Oil Market Trend
The increasing demand from the marine industry is the primary trend in the global industrial gear oil market growth. Global seaborne trade has witnessed a gradual increase, despite the challenges in the past decade due to the adverse effects of the global recession and demand-supply disparities in manufactured goods and commodities. The growth in seaborne trade is expected to drive the demand for ships, which, in turn, will create the need for industrial gear oil for marine engines and other parts of ships during the forecast period.
Seaborne trade also has a key role in economic development and growth in countries and various regions. Major emerging economies such as China and India have become crucial hubs for manufacturing a range of goods and commodities. Sea transportation accounts for a major chunk of the transportation of these goods and commodities from these countries to other parts of the world. Goods such as oil and grain are transported in container ships in bulk as bulk cargo. This could generate new business opportunities for shipping companies and ports and will drive the growth of the marine industry during the forecast period.
Major Industrial Gear Oil Market Challenge
The increasing adoption of automatic lubrication systems is a major challenge to the growth of the global industrial gear oil market. Advances in technology are increasing automation, which, in turn, is increasing manufacturing competitiveness, creating a competitive global manufacturing landscape. The rise in competition has led to the adoption of high-speed machinery, high-volume production, and the requirement for machinery to run for longer periods. Therefore, the appropriate and adequate amount of lubricants is needed to ensure safe operation, reduce unscheduled downtime, and wear and tear. Each manufacturing facility will have several hundred to thousands of lubricant points, depending on the size of the establishment. Lubrication is still done using manual labor, which can be impractical in an increasingly automated process industry.
Moreover, increasing the adoption of automatic lubrication systems will reduce the amount of lubricant required, impacting the growth of the market. Major damage can delay the refurbishing for up to eight months. Such delays are causing the end-user to find an alternate route for better maintenance and servicing. All these factors will pose a challenge to the growth of the global industrial lubricants market during the forecast period.

The manfacturing segment was valued at 806.79 thousand t in 2017 and continue to grow by 2021. Most machinery used in the manufacturing sector contain a gearbox. The shafts on which the gears are mounted are supported and rotated by rolling element bearings. The gearbox is used to increase torque while lowering speed and uses mechanical means to transmit energy from one device to another. The gearbox is a vital component of many industrial applications. These devices play a crucial role in mechanical power transmission and motor speed factor modification. Lubrication is essential to the efficiency of gearboxes, which is necessary for them to perform their tasks correctly. The blood system of an industrial gearbox is lubricating oil. The gearbox is liable to malfunction if the oil levels drop too low. Failure of the gearbox can result in costly repairs that could be avoided. In addition to increased costs from replacement or repair, costs from a loss of production may be high. Thus, for the effective and efficient operations of machinery, gear oil is an important component. Such factors will increase segment growth during the forecast period.
