(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Cut energy and maintenance costs with VSD, IoT monitoring and predictive maintenance while targeting oil-free compressors for high-purity, automation-led industries.Dublin, Oct. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Screw Compressors - Global Strategic Business Report" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global screw compressors market was valued at US$12.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach US$16.9 billion by 2032, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during the forecast period. Market growth is being supported by rising demand for energy-efficient compressed air systems, expanding industrial automation, stricter environmental regulations, and increased investment in advanced manufacturing infrastructure.
Key Screw Compressors Market Trends and Growth Drivers
Screw compressors remain essential across manufacturing, food and beverage, oil and gas, automotive, chemicals and petrochemicals, metals and mining, medical, pharmaceutical, HVAC, and infrastructure applications. Demand is particularly strong in facilities requiring reliable compressed air for continuous and heavy-duty operations.
Energy efficiency is a major purchasing priority as industrial operators seek to reduce electricity consumption, operating costs, and carbon emissions. Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology is gaining adoption because it enables compressor output and power consumption to respond more closely to changing demand. Government initiatives promoting energy conservation and industrial sustainability are further accelerating investment in advanced screw compressor systems.
Oil-free screw compressors are recording strong demand in pharmaceuticals, electronics, food processing, and other applications requiring high air purity. The oil-free type segment is forecast to reach US$11.6 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.6%. The oil-injected type segment is expected to expand at a CAGR of 3.1% over the same period.
Digital controls, Internet of Things connectivity, real-time performance monitoring, predictive maintenance, and remote operation are also reshaping the global screw compressors market. These capabilities can help operators improve equipment reliability, optimize maintenance schedules, reduce unplanned downtime, and support connected production environments.
Regional Screw Compressors Market Outlook
The United States screw compressors market was valued at US$3.3 billion in 2025. China is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 8.6%, reaching approximately US$3.8 billion by 2032.
