The global pipe insulation market size is expected to reach USD 13.57 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.5% from 2023 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing infrastructure spending in the emerging markets of Asia Pacific and Central and South America is expected to propel market growth.

The price structure of the product varies with respect to production processes and raw materials used. Fluctuating raw material prices result in variations in the prices of thermal insulating materials, thus affecting the suppliers who have integrated themselves across the value chain, thereby enabling them to gain superior control over product pricing.

The growing adoption of cogeneration or combined cooling, heat, and power (CCHP) technology for electricity generation is expected to drive the product demand. In addition, rising investments in R&D activities to optimize and lower the cost of insulation materials including polyurethane (PU) and polyisocyanurate are expected to benefit the market.

Key industry participants including Saint-Gobain and Rockwool International A/S are expanding their geographic presence and customer base through marketing strategies such as mergers and acquisitions. Furthermore, players such as Knauf Insulation and Armacell LLC are integrated across the value chain to gain a competitive advantage.
