Market Definition
Hoses are designed with a keen focus on factors such as size, pressure, weight, length, flexibility, and chemical compatibility, tailoring them to specific applications. Comprised mainly of non-metal materials such as nylon and rubber, these hoses offer durability and resistance to corrosion. They serve as vital conduits for the safe and efficient transfer of various substances such as water, oil, and chemicals. The hoses market caters to a wide array of industries, including automotive, construction, and agriculture. Its adaptability is a key strength, with hoses available in different sizes and pressure to meet diverse customer needs.
Europe Hoses Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, challenges, and restrains. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Increasing Adoption of Non-Metal Hoses
Both metallic and polymer hoses are utilized in varied industrial applications. Operators need safe, quality hoses for industrial use. Industrial operators are shifting from metal to nonmetallic hoses as metallic hoses are heavier than polymer hoses.
The non-metal hose is cheaper than the metal hose, which can benefit the operator. Owing to the high cost of the metal, it ultimately increases the price of metal hose. Hence, non-metal hoses are more convenient and highly adaptable.
A wide range of non-metal hoses is present regarding product differentiations, following different material types for varied industry operations. This includes rubber, PVC, EPDM, and polyplastic materials. The resistant properties of PVC enhance its reliability and durability. The chemical resistance capabilities of PVC are broad and make it resistant to chemical corrosion and chemical stress cracking. The rubber-like flexibility of PVC gives PVC tubes and hoses reliable flexibility, strength, and durability even under changing temperatures and conditions. It can even be used at low temperatures approaching -45°C while maintaining strength and flexibility.
However, factors such as high flexibility, ease of operation, less heat loss, ease in cost, safety, stability, and resistance to chemical or weather corrosion help to adopt polymer hoses. Hence, increasing the adaptation of non-metal hoses is helping in propelling the market growth.
- Increasing Need for Durable Hoses in Critical Conditions
The condition of hoses includes moving fluids, chemicals, air, water, oil, and other materials from one place to another. There is a significant demand for robust hoses in the market in crucial conditions, such as high temperature, high pressure, chemical reactions, and vacuum.
The customers must consider several important criteria, including catastrophic failure, permeability, chemical compatibility, temperature, external environment, vacuum, and others.
Thus, hoses play a vital role in processes involving crucial conditions, such as high temperature, high pressure, chemical reaction, and vacuum. These conditions are involved in various industrial sectors, increasing the demand for the hoses in the market. Market players are introducing new products for critical conditions to increase the safety and testing procedures in the industries, driving market growth.
Opportunities
- Growing Adoption of Hoses in the Automobile Sector
Automobiles consist of complex internal structures and systems with various components intact. The integration of these systems and components allows the automobile to operate as an efficient machine. In automobiles, hoses play an important role as they are used in engine cooling systems, brakes, oil carriers, fuel carriers, air conditioning, and other vehicle parts. In the design of an engine cooling system, hoses of various types are used for coolant circulation. These hoses have different material properties as some are designed to withstand coolant heat, whereas others can take just cold coolant. This increases the importance of hoses in automobiles, and the growth of the hoses market is directly affected by the growth of the automobile industry.
Restraint/ Challenge
- Standards and Regulations Related to the Hoses
Standardization in the manufacturing and usage of hoses is essential for ensuring safety, compatibility, and performance across various applications, from industrial processes to hydraulic systems. However, while standards are vital for quality control and safety, they can also act as restraints in several ways. There are several standards related to the production and utilization of hoses. There are some regulatory bodies, such as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), ASTM international standards, and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards among others, which regulate and standardize the production and utilization of hoses.
However, adhering to these standards often involves increased manufacturing costs, as specialized materials and precision engineering are necessary to meet the stringent criteria. These costs can be prohibitive, restraining market growth as users seek more cost-effective alternatives for manufacturers and end-users.
Recent Developments
- In May 2023, Manuli Hydraulics had introduced a groundbreaking innovation with their GAIA hydraulic hoses. These hoses, while meeting the rigorous demands of high-pressure hydraulics, stand out for their 100% recyclability. Unlike traditional hoses, GAIA hoses are crafted from rubber compounds that contain no chlorine, making them fully recyclable. This not only reduces end-of-life disposal and recycling costs but also aligns with Environmental, Social & Governance goals, contributing to improved sustainability. Moreover, the manufacturing process of GAIA hoses is more environmentally friendly, complying with OEM manufacturers' Green Policies. Manuli Hydraulics has set a new standard in hydraulic hose technology with its commitment to sustainability and eco-friendliness
- In July 2022, Continental AG acquired NorrVulk AB to strengthen its industrial business in Sweden. The technology company's portfolio for the sale of conveyor belt systems and related services is enhanced by this acquisition, which also enhances its relationships with industrial clients in the area. The acquisition has helped the company to increase its footprint in the European region
