The industrial tubes market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• There has been a significant expansion in the size of the industrial tubes market in the past few years. The market, which is worth $646.18 billion in 2024, is projected to rise to $701.38 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%.
The growth during the historical period can be credited to factors such as construction and infrastructure development, industrial manufacturing requirements, oil and gas exploration, global economic conditions, and infrastructure rehabilitation.
The industrial tubes market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for industrial tubes is forecasted to experience significant growth, expanding to $1002.8 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%.
This upward trend can be largely accredited to elements such as market rivalry and progressive innovation, supply chain strongness and productivity, the advancement of the automotive industry, escalating urbanisation and construction activities, as well as ecological laws and sustainability. Key trends that will dominate the forecast period encompass demands for customisation, the increase in digitalisation and intelligent manufacturing, a heightened emphasis on sustainability, burgeoning urbanisation, and the application of advanced materials.
The growth of the industrial tubes market is predicted to be fueled by the upsurge in the oil and gas industry. The industry encompasses various stages such as exploration, development, drilling, production, refining, distribution, and the transportation of hydrocarbons. These tubes have been engineered to efficiently carry both crude and refined petroleum, along with fuels such as oil, natural gas, and biofuels. The U.S. Energy Information Administration, a domestic Federal Statistical System dedicated to the energy sector, noted that the US produced 348,849 barrels of crude oil in April 2022. Thus, the expanding oil and gas industry is escalating the demand for the industrial tubes market.
