Market Definition
Refrigerant is a compound normally found in either a gaseous or fluid state. It willingly absorbs heat from the environment and provides air conditioning or refrigeration when combined with other components like evaporators and compressors. A refrigerant is a substance which is used in a heat cycle to transfer heat from one area to another. Generally a gas at room temperature. Found in pretty much the whole thing that cools, and after sometimes in things that heat, most commonly refrigerants are used in freezers, air conditioners, fridges, and vehicle air conditioners.
Refrigerant Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Increase the usage in transportation
During the transportation of food and food and other delicate supplies which has shipped at long distances need cooling in the transportation trucks, ships and train. Some refrigerants such as R134A and R1234yf are applied to transportation cooling. So, the higher demand in transportation sector are expected to drive the growth of the refrigerant market.
- Usage in pharmaceutical industry
Several medicine needs cooling due to the presence of crucial components in the medicine, which needs preservation. Two of the most common cooling refrigerant in pharmaceutical may be R134A and R1234ze. Also R448A, R449A, R450A, R507A, R404A, R407A, R407F, R422D, R513A can be useful for warehouse cooling purposes. But there are some limitations with high GWP refrigerants when it comes to use inside European Union.
- Highly used in refrigeration systems
Refrigeration systems are extremely used in industrial and commercial refrigeration purposes for retaining the temperature level. In the food industry, refrigeration systems are used to maintain the freshness of food in store, domestic houses, and other areas where food is handled. It is also used in chemical industries for the handling of chemicals. The increasing demand for refrigeration systems for domestic use increases the demand for refrigerants in the market.
Opportunities
- Increase the demand in commercial sector
There is a distinct increase in demand in the commercial sector with large number of malls, offices, and other infrastructures globally. These buildings are integrated with HVAC equipment like air conditioners. Due to the rapid growth of the commercial sector is leading the demand in the refrigerant market as refrigerants and create lucrative opportunities for the market growth rate.
- Growing demand for Natural Refrigerants
The natural refrigerants are carbon dioxide, ammonia, and HCs like isobutene and propane are most commonly used in the market. Due to the Technological advancements in cooling equipment it is replacing traditional refrigerants with natural refrigerant. This has led to an upsurge in the market share of natural refrigerants in several applications like refrigeration, air conditioning, and heating systems.
Restraints/ Challenges
Several governments and agencies are imposing regulations to limit the use of hydrocarbon refrigerants Due to the severe damage. The chlorofluorocarbon refrigerants cause to the ozone layer. Numerous countries have decided to phase out the use of HFCs and HCFCs by imposing restriction on the consumption through several rules and protocols. These regulations hamper the growth of the refrigerant market.
