Gas Cylinders Market (By Cylinder Type: High Pressure, Low Pressure, Acetylene; By Wrap Type: Wrap Less, Glass Fiber, Aramid Fiber, Carbon Fiber, Others; By Gas Type: Inert Gases, Flammable Gases, Toxic Gases, Pyrophoric Gases, Oxidisers; By Application: Kitchen & Domestic, Processing Industries, Medical, Transportation, Others) – Global Industry Analysis, Market Size, Opportunities and Forecast, 2020 - 2027

The global gas cylinders market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% over the forecast period 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach around US$ 10,500 Mn by 2027.

A gas cylinder also known as tank is a pressure vessel for the storage of gases at above atmospheric pressure. These are of two types including high and low pressure, where high-pressure gas cylinders are also called bottles. These are used in chemical processes, soldering, welding, flame cutting, breathing while emergency rescue & diving among others, medical uses, dispensing beverages, vehicles, extinguishing fires, heating & cooking, and water treatment.

Market Dynamics

The increasing demand for gas cylinders across various industrial sectors including automotive, recreation industries, life support, and transportation is accelerating the market growth. The increasing demand for gas cylinders in natural gas vehicles due to increasing carbon footprints with the combustion engine is further supporting the market value. The market is also gaining pace owing to the increasing focus of gas cylinder manufacturers on building robust cylinders to meet the diverse safety precautions of toxic, oxidizing, corrosive, flammable, and inert gases. Whereas, advance technologies have come up with new cylinder designs that enhance safety provisions and optimized handling and storing abilities with lightweight cylinders are projected to provide potential opportunities over the estimated period.

On the other hand, the presence of strict regulations due to risk associated with hazardous gases is projected to hamper the growth to an extent over the estimated period. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) technical committee is developing standards for specifying the standardization of gas cylinders and their fittings are ISO/TC 58. Compressed gases are subject to a requirement by the United States Department of Transportation (US DOT) in Title 49 Section 173 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations (49 CFR 173) mandating the use of hazardous materials placards during shipment. The United States founded Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), maintains standards for gas cylinders.

Wrap less segment is likely to register major share in the gas cylinder market

On the basis of wrap type, wrap less segment is projected to register a major share during the forecast period from 2020 to 2027. Moreover, the aramid fiber segment is projected to exhibit the fastest growth over the forecast period. The thermal stability of aramid fibers is projected to drive its demand in the gas cylinder market during the forecast period.
