logoMarket Overview

A condensing unit is an assembly of various mechanical parts that create a refrigeration system. It consists of fan motors, a condenser, a compressor, mounting plates, and controls. They are temperature-controlling devices widely found in heat pumps, air conditioners, chillers, and refrigerators. All of the connected sub-parts are used to work on a gas form called refrigerant that is created by energy movement in heat form. The refrigerant then passes through a system of coils while the air around the coils leads to the heating or cooling of surrounding spaces. Condenser’s work is managed by fans, electronic controls, pumps, and fans. A key identification of a condensing unit is that they apply extreme pressure on the gas to convert it to liquid form. This process forces the energy stored out in form of heat followed by the circulation of cooled liquid throughout an enclosed system while absorbing heat when returning to the compressor.

logo Growth Drivers

  • Growing retail sector to propel market growth

The global condensing unit market is projected to grow owing to the increasing retail sector across regions. The growth may be specifically directed to the increasing number of supermarkets and hypermarkets owing to the growing population and subsequent demand for consumer products. Although the retail sector is highly developed in the first world countries, the growth is growing at a significant value in emerging countries like India and China which are home to more than 50% of the world’s population. The increasing number of players, domestic and international, and the rise in investments may also help generate more revenue during the projection period.

logo Restraints

  • Stringent laws regulating the environmental impact to restrict market expansion

The global market may face restricted growth owing to the prevalence of stringent laws regulating the environmental impact of excessive use of refrigerators and air conditioners that are known to be contributing to the increasing global warming. For instance, fluorocarbons used as refrigerants are known to hurt the ozone layer.

logo Opportunities

  • Growing technological advancements to provide excellent growth opportunities

The global condensing unit market players have been consistently working toward managing the environmental impact of condensing unit applications by developing more eco-friendly refrigerants. The higher adoption of advanced technology is expected to help reduce the replacement rate and improve the durability and efficiency of the product. These factors may attract more consumers in the coming years.

logo Challenges

  • High cost of the unit to pose as a major challenge

One of the challenging situations for players in the global market is the high cost of condensing units which is directly proportional to the efficiency and the output requirements. As per official data, condensing units may cost anything between USD 850 to USD 3000 making it unaffordable for a large segment of potential consumers thus acting as a major growth barrier.

logoSegmentation Analysis

  • The global condensing unit market is segmented based on application, type, refrigerant type, function, and region

Based on application, the global market segments are commercial, industrial, and transportation. The global market may be led by the commercial segment in the coming years driven by the growing strategic measures undertaken by key market players to expand global footprint. For instance, as per Cooling India, around 60 to 70% of refrigeration energy consumption is accounted for by condensers and compressors.

Based on type, the global market divisions are water-cooled and air-cooled, with the latter dominating the global market owing to its ease of installation and lower maintenance cost as compared to its counterpart. For reference, heavy-duty air compressors are known to function on 220-volt currents.

Based on refrigerant type, the global market divisions are hydrocarbons, fluorocarbons, and inorganics. Currently, the global market witnessed the highest growth in the fluorocarbons segments as they are currently widely used in air-conditioners. In 2020, the global air-conditioning market was valued at USD 106.65 billion.

Based on function, refrigeration, heat pumps, and air conditioning are the main global market segments with the cold storage sector driving the demand for the air conditioning segment. The global cold storage market may grow at a CAGR of 12.56% by 2028. The industry deals with facilities that store food-items that would otherwise get easily spoilt when kept in normal conditions.

logoRecent Developments:

  • In August 2021, Embraco, a world leader in refrigeration technology, announced the launch of a new portfolio of refrigeration condensing units specially designed for the Japanese market. The products in the new portfolio have applications in supermarket display cases, kitchen reach-ins, refrigerators for medical applications, and island freezers
  • In May 2022, Secop, a Germany-based producer of refrigerators for medical applications, launched a new segment of condensing units called R290, designed to meet the new European Ecodesign Directive, while also optimizing the performance and efficiency of the new product
