The global water control gate market size was USD 558.9 million in 2021 and is expected to touch USD 882.83 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.7% during the period.

Water control gates shut water flow in dams, reservoir spillways, and irrigation canals. These are operated with a motorized or hand-driven screw rod hoisting arrangement. The main components of the control gate are the groove channel, screw rod, headset, and an operating lever. All these components are coated with primer, coal tar, and unique paint coats to protect them from corrosion. These control gates are made with fiber polymers or steel depending on the water pressure and have applications in various sectors.

Fiber polymers are superior to steel as they are lightweight and more potent in weight ratio. Therefore, these devices are light to lift and easy to maintain. The product is divided into type and application segments. The type segment consists of stainless steel and iron cast gates, whereas the application segment consists of water supply & drainage systems and wastewater & sewage treatment systems. The control gates have applications in various environmental and process applications. These products are generally made of stainless steel and galvanized aluminum.

COVID-19 Impact: Stoppage of Manufacturing and Production Impeded Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic was unprecedented & staggering, with water control gates experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic times. The sudden spike in CAGR can be attributed to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels after the pandemic is over.

The pandemic-induced restrictions and lockdowns worldwide halted the production and manufacturing of water control gates in every region, thus affecting the demand and supply of the product severely. Rising inflation and prices of raw materials further disrupted the market's supply chain, leading to losses for investors and manufacturers worldwide. Hence, these factors impeded the market growth and share heavily.

LATEST TRENDS

"Post-Pandemic Boom to Fuel Market Growth "

The rapid increase in production and manufacturing activities post the pandemic, along with decreasing inflation and rising disposable incomes worldwide, will fuel the demand for water control gates. This rise can be attributed to the exponential boom in the production processes and the restoration of supply chains in key regions such as North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific. Therefore, these developments will lead to massive profits and revenues for investors and manufacturers worldwide.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Technology Driven Features to Drive Market Growth"

Product features such as low fluid resistance, superior sealing performance, and dual-flowing directions will drive the water control gate market growth. Thus, the use of the product will increase in pipelines where the movement flow changes frequently. Along with this, easy installation of control gates and fluid resistance of the machinery will propel the worldwide market growth and share of the industry.

"Wide-Ranging Applications to Propel Market Growth"

Water control gates have wide-ranging applications in manufacturing, industrial processes, water drainage systems, sewage treatment, and others. The mediums used for these applications include steam, oil, steel, or iron-clad devices. Therefore, the product's versatility makes it more desirable, thus driving market growth and demand in the industry exponentially.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Slow Processing and Material Sensitivity May Hamper Market Growth"

During the opening, the control gate must be lifted to the upper part of the chamber. During the closing, it needs to fall into the seat. The distance the plate should move to open or close is considerable, causing a lengthy opening and closing time. This disadvantage makes water control gates less useful for sectors that require rapid actuation. Additionally, the opening and closing processes can create excess friction, leading to scratches on the surface body and impacting the performance and the product service life. Hence, these factors may impede market growth worldwide.
