The global vacuum pump market size is anticipated to reach USD 8.75 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.4% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth is expected to be driven by the increasing product demand from industries, such as semiconductors & electronics, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. Furthermore, the growing focus on energy efficiency & sustainability and advancement in technology are expected to propel the market growth. For instance, in April 2020, Flowserve launched a vacuum pump series with the name SIHI DRY PD MI series. The new series would improve the throughput times, process efficiency, and the time required to achieve the target vacuum levels, thereby strengthening the company’s pump product portfolio.
The demand for semiconductors is increasing progressively worldwide as the design of integrated circuits is becoming increasingly complicated, resulting in the usage of many semiconductors for developing them. Furthermore, a rise in the demand for consumer electronics can be attributed to the increasing disposable income of the masses. The rising adoption of electronic products in workplaces, daily routines, and entertainment is expected to increase the market demand.Vacuum pumps play a crucial role in the semiconductor & electronics industry for processes like semiconductor manufacturing, photolithography, and deposition. They create the necessary vacuum conditions for precise fabrication and coating of semiconductor components, ensuring high-quality production and performance.
The growing pharmaceutical industry has an increasing product demand due to their role in various critical processes. Vacuum pumps are used for tasks like filtration, distillation, drying, and pharmaceutical freeze-drying processes. They help maintain optimal conditions, ensuring the efficiency and quality of pharmaceutical production. Dry vacuum pumps eliminate the need for lubricating fluids, reducing the risk of contamination, and making them more environmentally friendly compared to oil-sealed pumps. Moreover, dry vacuum pumps generally have lower energy consumption and operating costs, appealing to industries seeking energy-efficient solutions.
In addition, the need for clean and dry vacuum conditions is critical in industries like semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and food packaging, driving the demand for dry vacuum pumps. For instance, Ingersoll Rand offers dry vacuum pumps that deliver clean, flexible, dry vacuum solutions. They are engineered due to the high demands from industrial environments, such as pharmaceutical & fine chemicals. Manufacturers undertake strategies, such as product launches, M&As, and expansions, to gain higher market share. Busch, for instance, introduced the energy-efficient R5 RA vacuum pump in July 2023. It is a rotary vacuum pump that saves up to 25% on energy. Furthermore, it has a small & hygienic design, lower heat emissions, and allows for faster & easier maintenance.
