The global industrial insulation market size is expected to reach USD 12.10 billion by 2030, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing demand for adequate thermal insulation for industrial equipment for energy-efficient operations, and economical design, is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.

The raw materials used for the production of various industrial insulation products are available in abundance, which benefits the industry. However, some of the feedstock used for insulation production is derived from petrochemicals, so fluctuations in the price of crude oil result in changes in the procurement cost of the feedstock, limiting the bargaining power of insulation manufacturers.

The industry is under high scrutiny from government environmental agencies, including EPA, REACH, and NGT. These agencies have imposed stringent regulations on the production, storage, and transportation of insulation materials. Government support to develop sustainable manufacturing practices is expected to hamper the market growth.

Major players, such as Rockwool Technical Insulation, Paroc Group, and Knauf Gips KG, hold most market share due to their vast product portfolio and wider geographical reach. These companies develop a powerful business model to adapt to the market volatility and any technological & geographical change.
