Asia-Pacific Hazardous Lighting Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)

Key Highlights

• Asia-Pacific Hazardous Lighting Market was valued at USD 703.76 million in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 950.64 million by 2026 at a CAGR of 5.14% during the forecast period 2021 - 2026. Asia-Pacific region has seen significant growth in industrial and infrastructure development supported by an increase in demand for industrial products, global investments, and technological advancements. This growth has triggered the need for energy-efficient lighting technologies across hazardous areas.
• According to the National Beareau of Statistics, the total amount of oil processed for 2019 reached 651.98 Million Tonnes, or about 13.04 million barrels per day (bpd). The growth in the petroleum industry is mainly due to the start-up of two new refineries by China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), which has also planned to open six new refineries in the year 2020. Thus, there is a high demand for hazardous lighting in the country, especially for LED lighting, as China has a growing need in the LED market.
• According to a report by CPhI, Japan is the second fastest-growing mature pharmaceutical market. The growth in the market is due to favorable government actions and a rise in dose formulations and generics market. This may in turn, increase the demand for lighting in hazardous locations in Japan's pharmaceutical industry.
• Asia-Pacific region is among the fastest developing region with technical developments, economic growth and innovations. With an intense penetration of LEDs in countries like China, India, Japan and, South Korea, progressive initiatives have been taken in the adoption of Smart lighting solutions for hazardous areas.
• As Covid-19 has affected the supply chain of LED manufacturers in the region, the prices of LEDs can be expected to rise in the near future. With almost all the industries shut down, the coupled effect with increased prices will affect the demand of Hazardous Lighting.

Key Market Trends

Rising Demand for Cost-effective LED Lighting Solutions

• LEDs operate on a lower wattage and consume less energy than older lighting technologies in hazardous areas. LEDs help in cutting down utility costs, which is important for any location, especially for a large locations with a lot of fixtures installed.
• With lower voltage, the LED lighting provides higher lumen output , which can avoid accidents, lower heat as 80% of the energy from LEDs is consumed to create illumination, durability as LEDs last four times longer than other options, and better versatility in specs.
• According to United Nations report, Asia stands out as the region with highest gains in electricity savings and avoids CO2 emmissions. UNEP in the frame of enlighten program estimates that in the absence of new policies, 57% of the lighting energy demand would come from Asia. Therefore developments in Asia are critical for LED market growth.
• The operational costs of the LEDs, when compared to other lighting technologies, is less than 50%. Asia-Pacific region has been exporting to European region, MEA region and North American region,etc. Thus savings in utility helps in profitability and expansion of production.
