In the market study, our analysts have considered sluice gates players such as Orbinox (AVK Group), VAG GmbH, BÜSCH Technology GmbH, Ventim Ventil & Instrument AB, ABS-Armaturen GmbH.

River and canal water flow is controlled by sluice gates, a form of water control device. In essence, they function as large barriers that can be lifted or closed to let a certain amount of water pass through. They are significant because they enable a more effective utilization of water resources that can support activities like irrigation, the production of hydroelectric power, and flood control.

Rising consumer demand for affordable flood protection devices and growing consumer awareness of the advantages of flood barriers. An increase in the volume of construction activities in low-lying and coastal locations. The marketplace  is expected to be driven in the near future by an increasing number of smart city initiatives that encourage the use of cutting-edge flooding protection systems and financing for development and research of innovative flood barrier technologies.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 Impact:

Supply and Isolation Limitations to Deplete Market Advancement

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, sluice gates experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Additionally, the sluice gates market growth was severely damaged by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic's extraordinary effects on machinery and equipment business and the industry's capacity constraints led to a slowdown in demand for gates, which was also a result of weak economic activity in a number of other industries. The market, however, is anticipated to pick up steam gradually as soon as commercial and industrial activity pick up again.

LATEST TRENDS 

Iron and Stainless Steel Gates to Stimulate Market Development

Hydraulic mining techniques separate the mine haulage using cast iron gates. A cylindrical inclined plane surface with two halves at the top and bottom that serve as handles make up this manually controlled gadget.

For the purpose of separating rock or dirt from the ore, hydraulic mining techniques use gates made of stainless steel. Ferritic, austenitic, martensitic, and other varieties of stainless steel are used in the production of the product. These materials' various properties enable the creation of a wide range of gates with various opening sizes and forms to meet application needs.

• According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, over 51% of major dam renovation projects in 2023 included sluice gate upgrades.

• As per EU Water Framework Directive reports, nearly 47% of municipal wastewater systems in Europe now use automated sluice gates.

DRIVING FACTORS

Extreme Weather Conditions Market to Aid Market Expansion

The requirement for gates equipment has increased as extreme weather events including heavy rain, hurricanes, storm surges, and flooding on the coast occur more frequently. Governments and corporate entities have invested in flood barriers as a result to protect their cities and infrastructure. Cities and municipalities now have a greater need for flood prevention measures as a result of rapid urbanization and infrastructure development. As more areas are built, natural waterways are usually disrupted, which raises the possibility of floods. As a consequence of this, have been incorporated into infrastructure planning and urban design. Therefore, owing to the above-mentioned fact the sluice gates market share will increase during the forecasted period.

• According to the Central Water Commission (India), 58% of new irrigation projects now incorporate sluice gates for flow control efficiency.

• Based on UN Water statistics, over 62% of countries implemented water infrastructure upgrades linked to sluice gates between 2020–2023.

Aluminium Gates to Foster Industry Progress

A form of water management device called the aluminum sluice gate exploits the water's brownian motion to aid in the flow of water. Gates have been employed in mines and hydroelectric operations, but they are most frequently used in irrigation networks and other agricultural situations.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Rising Price of Raw Material to Hinder Market Advancement

However, throughout the anticipated period, market expansion is anticipated to be constrained by rising raw material price volatility along elevated gate expenses. The capacity of manufacturers to create gate in accordance with precise specifications is impacted by the increasing uncertainty of raw material prices. Additionally, manual opening and closing are necessary during floods.

• As per the World Bank, around 39% of water infrastructure in developing countries faces funding gaps that hinder sluice gate deployment.

• According to the OECD, nearly 41% of sluice gate components are affected by supply chain delays due to steel and iron shortages.
