COMMERCIAL COMPRESSOR MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global commercial compressor market was valued at USD 4.88 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 5.07 billion in 2025, steadily progressing to USD 6.83 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 3.8% from 2025 to 2033.

A commercial compressor is also called as a commercial refrigeration compressor and it is used mainly for the purpose of compressing the refrigerant gas. All types of refrigerants will have to be compressed by using a commercial compressor in order to reach the right pressure.

The demand for packaged, processed, and fast food have increased drastically over a period of ten years. Commercial compressors are used for storing such food items. This is considered as the latest trend in the market.

The number of fast food chains are growing day by day. With rise in population food trade is growing at an exceptional rate. All of these factors have helped in the growth and development of the commercial compressor market.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Reduction in Consumption of Preserved Food Decreased Market Share

The pandemic of COVID-19, was the major problem faced by all industries. Outbreak of coronavirus led to major health crisis all over the world. Many people died due to the rapid spread of coronavirus. Several precautions were taken up by government organizations to prevent the rapid spread of the virus. 

Lockdowns were made compulsory, with strict social distancing norms. Outdoor activities were reduced, and the demand for several products also decreased. Consumption of outside food and packed food items  also saw a decline. As a result, the market for commercial compressor suffered during the pandemic period.

LATEST TRENDS

Increase in Demand for Preserved Food Post Pandemic to Increase Market Growth

Despite, suffering low demand during the pandemic packaged food market saw a steady growth post pandemic. Consumption of fast food increased considerably. Chips, snacks, and beverages were sold out in large quantities from retail and departmental stores.

All of this packaged food must be preserved in commercial refrigerator compressors to avoid their decaying. With the usage of these compressors the refrigerants can be compressed up to a certain pressure level. As a result, the demand for food service providers have increased. This is identified as the latest trend in the market.

DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Number of Fast-Food Chains and Franchise to Amplify Market Growth

With growing demand for fast food service providers, the inflow of investments for refrigeration systems has also increased. Many joint ventures as well as franchise of popular fast-food restaurants are being set up. This is a major factor fueling the market growth.

Commercial compressors and refrigerators are a must in these chain franchises. Hotels and restaurants also rely heavily upon on these equipments to preserve food items that are easily perishable. Changing lifestyle of people, and urbanization has also positively impacted the commercial compressor market share.

Growing Food Trade Across Globe to Impede Market Growth

Rapid growth of population in developed economies, has resulted in tremendous development of food trade across all the nations. Expansion of cold chain infrastructure, is another reason that has contributed to the increase in number of commercial compressors.

Busy lifestyle of people in today’s generation is influencing them to rely more on ready-to-eat food items that need preservation to be stored for a long period of time. Pharmaceutical companies also need commercial compressors to store sensitive drugs. Growth of Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector is expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for the commercial compressor market growth.  

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Decrease in Nutritional Value of Many Food Items to Bring Down Market Share

In Spite of storing food items as well as drugs for a long duration of time, commercial compressors have their own limitations.  The nutritional value of many food items decreases due to continuous preservation. Their shelf-life many increases, however food products like fruits and vegetables do not remain fresh and lose their taste.

Many refrigerators also release CFCs known as chlorofluorocarbons that can be very harmful to the environment. They lead to the depletion of ozone layer allowing the entry of harmful ultraviolet radiations. All of these factors can deteriorate the growth of commercial compressor market.
