Cold Insulation Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Cold insulation is a process that provides a mixture of two or more materials used to avoid heat gain or heat loss. Cold insulation is extensively used for the temperature below the ambient threshold that is proficient of preventing long-term degradation and condensation and moisture intrusion.

Cold Insulation Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rapid growth and expansion of oil and gas industries

The oil and gas industry is one of the core industries which plays an important role in influencing the decision-making for all the other major sections of the economy. In the oil and gas industry, cold insulation is used in the liquefaction plant and for insulation of LNG storage tanks, where natural gas covert into liquid state. The increase in the growth of oil and gas production will ultimately increase the demand for the cold insulation which will be expected to propel the market's growth.

• Rising demand of cold insulation in chemical industry

Cold insulation materials highly used in chemical industry, these materials are mainly used in industrial and petrochemical gases. These materials reduce the risk of damage or corrosion and offer excellent insulation. Moreover, they enhance process control and increase the energy efficiency of the chemical process. One of the prominent applications of cold insulation materials in chemical industry is the industrial treatment of gases. The demand for cold insulation materials for this application in chemical industry is expected to surge very rapidly. As a result, further enhance the market growth during the forecast period.

Opportunities

• Growing demand of cold Insulation for air-conditioning and refrigeration devices

The growing demand for air-conditioning and refrigeration devices is likely to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. Refrigeration devices are those devices which are used to remove heat from an enclosed space to lower the temperature, whereas air conditioning devices cools, heats, or dehumidifies spaces in non-residential and residential settings. Cold insulation helps air conditioning and refrigeration devices by avoiding condensation and reducing energy loss in the unit to keep it dry and cool. Hence, growing demand for air-conditioning and refrigeration devices is driving the growth of the cold insulation market.

• Rising commercial building and construction activities

Building and construction activities are growing rapidly all over the world owing to economic reforms and the increasing disposable income of individuals. The increasing population is resulting in the growing need for more commercial sector buildings. Phenolic foam, cellular glass, and polystyrene foam-based cold insulation is being extensively used in the building and construction of floors, roofs, ceilings and walls to maintain the required temperature inside the building. Therefore, increasing commercial building and construction activities will create lucrative opportunities for the market growth.

Restraints/ Challenge

• Availability of Substitutes

Availability of other substitute insulators such as extruded polystyrene insulation (EPS), refractory ceramic fibers (RCFs) and expanded polystyrene insulation (EPS) are expected to hamper the growth of the ceramic foam market growth. As these substitutes also offer similar insulation benefits across the many industry. Furthermore, the alternatives also provide various benefits such as high dimensional stability, heat & cold resistance, fire protection and also repels water, prevents. Thus, these alternatives act as a major challenging factor for the market growth during the forecast period.
