Refrigeration equipment industry trends

1. Industry Development Status

The refrigeration equipment industry continues to grow with the rapid development of the global cold chain logistics and food processing industries. The market size continues to expand and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5% in the next five years. At present, the demand of the food processing industry occupies a major share of the market, and the cold chain logistics industry is also an important driving force for the refrigeration equipment market. Refrigeration equipment has a wide range of applications, including but not limited to household refrigeration equipment, manufacturing, medical fields, etc.

2. Industry Trends

2.1 Technological progress drives product innovation

With the continuous development of science and technology, refrigeration technology will continue to advance and promote product innovation. New energy-saving and environmentally friendly refrigerants continue to emerge, such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and hydrocarbon natural refrigerants (HCs), which have lower environmental impact, higher efficiency and performance. At the same time, intelligent refrigeration technology will also be more widely used, such as the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies will be used for the intelligent management and optimized operation of refrigeration equipment.

2.2 Market demand continues to grow

The development of the global economy and the improvement of people's living standards have driven the continued growth of demand for refrigeration equipment. Especially in emerging markets and developing countries, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the popularity of refrigeration equipment. At the same time, demand in the commercial and industrial refrigeration sectors will also maintain steady growth.

2.3 Policies drive industry transformation

Governments will continue to strengthen the formulation and implementation of environmental protection laws and regulations to promote the refrigeration industry to develop in a more environmentally friendly and efficient direction. For example, some countries may introduce stricter emission standards to restrict the use and sales of high-pollution refrigeration equipment. At the same time, the government will also increase its support for new energy, energy conservation and environmental protection, and promote the green transformation of the refrigeration industry.
