North America Industrial Gases Market To Reach $50.17 Billion By 2030

North America Industrial Gases Market Growth & Trends

The North America industrial gases market size is expected to reach USD 50.17 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period, as per a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth is majorly driven by the increasing application of these gases in various industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, metallurgy, and food & beverages.

The oxygen product segment accounted for the largest share of the market in terms of revenue, in 2022, as the versatility and essentiality of oxygen make it a vital component in the chemicals and healthcare industries. For instance, compressed oxygen is used in certain medical devices and apparatus such as oxygen concentrators and ventilators, which are used for patients with severe respiratory issues. In addition, compressed oxygen is utilized in certain diagnostic procedures such as oximetry, which measures the amount of oxygen in the patient's blood.

Industrial gases are used in the food & beverages industry for multiple applications such as modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), carbonizing, freezing, and chilling food products and beverages. Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) uses industrial gases such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and oxygen to preserve food products and beverages for a long period.

The product market in North America is competitive owing to the presence of a few well-established players that control the majority of share in the market. These companies are operational in various stages of the product value chain and have multiple channels for the production and distribution of their finished products globally.

Increasing demand for the product from various end-use industries in North America has encouraged the market players to increase their regional footprint and broaden their product range. Some key companies actively operating in this market are Air Products & Chemicals Inc.; The Linde Group; Air Liquide; and Messer Group.

In the U.S., the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulates the use of the product in workplaces, while the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulates the transportation of containers such as cylinders containing these gases. The presence of different laws and regulations related to the storage and transportation of products in North America that manufacturers and distributors of these gases are required to abide by restricts the growth of the product market.
