The Global Market for Pipes and Pipe/Hose Fittings is Projected to Reach US$352.4 Billion by 2024

Recovery in Construction Activity and  E&P Spending to Drive Demand for Pipes & Pipe/Hose Fittings, According to a New Report Update by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

GIA launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market share, size, and demand forecasts on the global Pipes and Pipe/Hose Fittings market. The global market for Pipes and Pipe/Hose Fittings is projected to reach US$352.4 billion by 2024, driven by factors such as resurgence in construction activity, improvement in E&P spending, and rise in infrastructure and residential projects in developing countries.

Pipes, used commonly in potable water distribution, storm sewers, and surface water drainage are indispensable to the infrastructure of a nation.. Buoyed by expanding population and the subsequent rise in demand for potable water and drainage systems, market for pipes and fittings is set to rise over the analysis period. Demand is expected to increase further by the increasing distance between consumers and sources of potable water leading to the need for additional pipeline infrastructure for transmission and distribution. The trend is expected to be additionally supported by increasing migration of population to newer regions entailing the need for new infrastructure. The scenario is expected to promote demand for pipes, employed in public infrastructure applications including sewage and storm drain projects. Meanwhile, the need to redevelop and restore the ageing public sewer system will also offer opportunities for the pipe industry.

Nonetheless, given the sensitivity of end-use sectors such as oil & gas industry along with construction and building sectors, market for pipes and pipe/hose fittings is highly variable and closely mirrors the trends in GDP, energy prices and consumer spending levels. As the world economy expands, demand for energy is only expected to rise to address the growing industrial activity. Fossil fuels including coal, oil and natural gas form the dominant form of energy accounting for about 85% of the global energy requirements.  Demand for steel pipes is expected to improve in the mid-long term led by the stabilization in oil prices and resultant resurgence in oil & natural gas exploration, drilling and production activities. Demand for high-end seamless pipes is forecast to grow strongly due to the surge in unconventional drilling procedures such as horizontal drilling.

The market is expected to benefit from the development of lead-free pipes as a result of the growing pressure to adopt environment friendly products. The renewed interest in the urban development activities such as construction works spanning across industrial as well as residential and commercial sectors is expected to heighten demand for plastic pipes in coming years. Increasing demand for plastic pipes would be propelled by resin improvements that improve efficiency of pipe in challenging environments. In addition, improvement in processing would facilitate plastic pipe to become cost efficient in comparison to other materials.

Construction activity in countries such as India and China is driven by rising GDP, growing population, increasing disposable income, expanding base of middle class population, availability of capital and natural resources, and rapid urbanization. Growth in infrastructure construction is supported by the government focus on providing connectivity and public distribution networks such as communications, power, water and sewage.

As stated by the new market research report on Pipes and Pipe/Hose Fittings, Asia-Pacific represents the largest and the fastest growing market at a CAGR of 6.0% over the analysis period. Growth in the region is led by improvement in residential projects, development of public private sector partnerships in mega infrastructure projects and investments in transport and tourism infrastructure. Other major demand drivers include planned laying of natural gas distribution pipelines in several countries as well as advances in drainage and sewage systems and drinking water transfer systems.

Major players in the market include Advanced Drainage Systems Inc., Aliaxis SA, AMERICAN Cast Iron Pipe Company, Arcelor Mittal, CertainTeed Corporation, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC, Europipe GmbH, Evraz Inc., JM Eagle Company Inc., Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation, North American Pipe Corp., Pipelife International GmbH, PAO TMK, Tenaris Group, Confab Industrial SA, Tessenderlo Group, Tigre SA, US Steel Corp. and Wavin N.V., among others.
