Carbide Tips Dominates the Material Segment
By material, the report is categorized into carbide tips, tungsten carbide, boron carbide, silicon carbide, ceramic tips, and steel tips. The carbide tips dominate the material segment in 2019 with a maximum market share of 55%. It is due to numerous benefits associated with the carbide nozzles, such as high durability and cost-effectiveness, which leads to more preference over their counterparts.
3/8 Holds the Maximum Market Share of 35% by Bore Size:
By Bore size, the report is categorized into 5/16 Inch, 3/8 Inch, 7/16 Inch, and Others. The 3/8 dominates the bore size segment in 2019 with a maximum market share of 35%. The selection of a nozzle with a suitable bore size highly depends on the type of the application. It is due to the high adoption of .3 /8-inch bore-size for producing an adequate blast pressure with a 185 CFM compressor.
Marine Segment Accounted for the Largest Share
By end-user, the report is categorized into automotive, construction, automotive marine (shipyard), and others. The marine segment is accounted for the largest share of 30% in 2019. It is due to the rising utilization of abrasive blasting machines for surface treatment and rust removal from ships. Moreover, industry participants' growing focus towards employing dust-less blasting in marine applications to ensure efficient restoration, maintenance, and cleaning of ships contributes to the marine segment's growth in the forecast period.
Asia Pacific Dominates with a Maximum Market Share
In the regional outlook of the global abrasive blasting nozzle market, the Asia Pacific region dominates with a maximum market share of 35% in 2019. It is due to the growing construction activities in countries such as China and India, as well as in South East Asia, coupled with the massive adoption of abrasive blasting systems in industrial applications. Moreover, the increasing demand for abrasive blasting machines in significant end-use industries, such as aerospace and automotive, contributes to the abrasive blasting nozzle market growth across the Asia Pacific.
Global Abrasive Blasting Nozzle Market Overview
The key driver impacting the abrasive blasting nozzle market is the expanding demand for abrasive blasting machines from various industry verticals such as industrial, construction, automotive, and marine globally. For instance, As per the Oxford economics, Global Construction 2030 report, it is estimated that the total volume of construction output will increase by 85% to $15.5 trillion globally by 2030. The growth is majorly driven by three countries the US, India, and China, and responsible for 57% of all worldwide growth. Moreover, the growing need to select an appropriate nozzle to attain the desired results effectively and efficiently is also estimated to be a significant determinant that adds growth to the market.
According to Value Market Research, the global abrasive blasting nozzle market was valued at around USD 189.4 million in 2019 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of about 4.5% during the forecast period of 2020-2026.
The rising demand for abrasive blasting machines in repairing, cleaning, and surface finishing, coupled with numerous benefits associated with abrasive blasting, is predictable to enhance market demand in the forecast period. For example, Abrasive media is usually reasonably priced, and its numerous types are reusable. Blasting presents added economic benefits as it effectively cleans surfaces better and quicker as compared to conventional techniques. It's also effective at getting rid of rust on metal surfaces. The growing automotive sector worldwide is also boosting the market demand as the automotive industry is majorly used for sandblasting operations on automobiles to strip-off rust, paint, grease, and oil. For instance, According to the Crescendo Worldwide Organization, automobile production in 2019 globally was estimated as 92 MN Vehicles, and it is expected to grow by a CAGR of 20.78% by 2028.
The current industry trend of constant adoption of blasting machines that can be operated using a remote control as per the guidelines draft by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is expected to provide beneficial market opportunities for the key market players in the coming years.
