Argon Gas Market To Reach $17.21 Billion By 2030 | CAGR: 6.8%

Argon Gas Market Growth & Trends

The global argon gas market is expected to reach USD 17.21 billion by 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2023 to 2030. Argon is often substituted by helium in various sectors; however, rising helium prices are projected to boost product demand in several applications. Expanding automobile sector is also anticipated to increase product demand as steel is one of the main components of this sector.

The solar energy market requires huge volumes of argon for manufacturing processes. Burgeoning energy markets are also expected to drive the product demand, owing to applications in the solar and insulated windows market. Argon and krypton gases are used for insulating windows to cover the space between glass panes to prevent cold air from coming inside the rooms. This factor is further projected to drive the market over the forecast period.

Growing lighting demand owing to the increasing number of malls, and shopping complexes are expected to drive product demand over the forecast period. Argon is a versatile gas and is used for various welding applications such as welding special alloys and the production of light bulbs and lasers. It can also provide oxygen and a nitrogen-free environment for various heating processes which is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.

Asia Pacific is also expected to witness rising product demand owing to growing developmental activities in emerging nations such as India and China among others. Europe experiences harsh weather conditions, thus utilization of the product for insulating windows is also expected to drive the industry demand in the region over the forecast period.

Market players are projected to undergo capacity expansion over the forecast period to eradicate the imbalance between demand and supply. This factor is anticipated to boost product demand, owing to reducing production costs of the product. Major market players operating in the market are Linde Gas LLC, BASF, AMCS Corporation, Praxair, Messer Group GmbH, Air Liquide, KBR, and National Industrial Gas Plants.
