How is Growing Interest for Cleaning Mechanical Products Triggering Demand for Vacuum Vapor Degreasing Solvents?

Manufacturing industries across the globe are gradually converging on sustainable development of projects for cleaning of mechanical components. Vacuum degreaser solvents are an essential product for the process maintenance of machines as well as vehicle parts, as they prevent mechanical components from rusting by eliminating impurities as well as other unwanted testimonies from machine parts.

Moreover, the function of vacuum vapour degreasers results in reduced maintenance and minimization of manpower constraints. This is precisely why demand for vacuum degreasers is swelling from end-use industries, and the trend is likely to continue over the coming years.

Vacuum degreasing equipment manufacturing companies are progressively taking efforts to make use of standard airless vacuum vapour degreaser equipment for multiple industries.

• For instance, in 2019, Baron Blakeslee launched a new product, Baronette Vapor Degreaser, which comes with a capacity of 55 gallon drums. This degreaser has been designed to be affordable for small & medium manufacturing companies, having small size where solvents like n-propyl bromide can be used.

Rise in government regulations regarding workplace sanitation and CGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) in various manufacturing industries is pushing sales of vacuum degreasers. Manufacturers of vacuum degreasers around the globe are executing good manufacturing practices, owing to regulations related to the environment imposed by regulatory bodies and the FDA.

Rapid growth in industrial development, mostly in developing countries, has amplified demand for vacuum degreasers. Rise in consciousness regarding the harmful effects and industrial cleaning of contagions are key factors for the increase in demand for industrial vacuum degreasers.

What Makes Vacuum Degreasers Cost-effective for End Users and Manufacturers Alike?

Vacuum degreasers save substantial costs for manufacturers as well as their end users. Cost constituents, including capacity, design, operation, labour, financing, lifecycle costs, and factory costs are considerably reduced while choosing automatic vacuum degreasers for cleaning purposes.

Based on industry research by Fact.MR on vacuum degreasers, North America and Europe together provided a valuation of over US$ 430 Mn in 2020, signifying around ½ of global market revenue generated during the same year.

Which Region Offers the Largest Opportunity for Sales of Industrial Vacuum Degreasers?

The European market share is expected to be high at 26% of market share in 2031, as manufacturers and workers, in particular regions, are revealing higher inclination towards using these product in their day-to-day activities.

The North America cordless vacuum degreaser market is likely to register a healthy CAGR of a little over 7% during the forecast period. Also, the East Asia region, mostly in developed and developing economies, is also estimated to rise at a stable pace owing to rising number of large manufacturing units being set up in many countries across the region.

What are the Setbacks for Vacuum Degreaser Manufactures in Developing Countries?

General lack of care towards hygiene and low awareness displayed by industrial workers in the South Asia & East Asia region might hinder sales of vacuum degreasers over the forecast period. Currently, South Asia & Oceania holds 13.8% market share, which is far lower than North America and Europe.

However, some liberation may be provided by manufacturing industries in the region. With rise of the industrial sector in developing economies such as East Asia and South Asia, the industrial vacuum degreaser market is predicted to develop and register a CAGR of 8.6% over the forecast period.

Lastly, slow growth of the Middle East and Africa’s industrial sector will affect the installed base of vacuum degreasers, which captured a market share of only 6.7% in 2020. This region is expected to witness sluggish growth in the vacuum degreasing equipment market over the coming years.

Country-wise Analysis

Why the U.S. Vacuum Degreaser Market Upholds Dominance?

The U.S. market for vacuum degreasers was valued at US$ 178.6 Mn in 2020, and is likely to reach US$ 384.8 Mn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 7.2%. Presence of a conventional industrial base such as automotive and manufacturing industries drives demand for vacuum degreasers.

Market growth in USA can be ascribed to rising sales of light commercial vehicles and passenger cars. The market share also holds in the aftermarket service of vehicles for cleaning parts while servicing, which can also be attributed to high consciousness of such products.

USA also leads OES (original equipment supplier) repair services, as people prefer maintaining and cleaning vehicles without having to bear repair and quality costs. The average age of a vehicle has grown from 10 to 11 years in the historical period, which has augmented the need to service vehicle parts with advanced industrial vacuum degreasing equipment.

Additionally, the country is home to many suppliers and manufacturers of vacuum degreasers, such as Baron Blakeslee, Bel Air Finishing Supply Corp., and Emerson Electric Co.

How Has Vacuum Degreaser Demand Been Shaping across Established & Emerging Markets?

China: The China market held more than 57% share in 2020 in the East Asia region. Technically advanced mobility resolutions such as industry 4.0 are escalating demand for vacuum degreasing equipment from the pharmaceutical industry and automobile sectors.

Germany: Germany has been an early adopter of vacuum degreasers. Few companies are ruling in the Germany manual vacuum degreasers market in terms of demand as well as production. Nearly 6 million cars are produced in one year, which leads to high need for clean assembly of every single mechanical product.

U.K: The U.K. automatic vacuum degreasers market is expected to reach US$ 69.8 Mn by 2031, owing to mounting investments in industrial machining, automotive, and aerospace

Category-wise Insights
