Diaphragm Pump Global Market Report 2024

A diaphragm pump is a positive displacement pump that operates through hydraulically or mechanically driven reciprocating action, utilizing either a flapper valve or a ball valve to transfer liquids. These pumps are designed for tasks such as metering, dosing, and transferring liquids, particularly benefiting from their suction lift properties. Diaphragm pumps find applications in transferring various industrial fluids, including waste, debris, stones, sludge, and more.

Diaphragm pumps can be categorized based on their mechanisms, with the two primary types being air-operated and electrically operated. Air-operated diaphragm pumps use compressed air as a power source and are suitable for transferring a wide range of fluids, including slurries, sludge, abrasive substances, and highly viscous fluids. Diaphragm pumps operate in two main types such as single-acting diaphragm pumps and double-acting diaphragm pumps. These pumps serve diverse end-users, including those in water treatment, oil and gas, chemical industries, pharmaceuticals, and the food and beverage sector.

The diaphragm pump market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.1 billion in 2023 to $6.63 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth observed in the historical period in the diaphragm pump market can be attributed to several factors. These include the expansion of chemical processing and petrochemical industries, the demand for reliable and leak-proof pumping solutions, the growth of water and wastewater treatment facilities, the adoption of diaphragm pumps in food and beverage processing, and the enforcement of stringent regulations on emissions and leakage in industrial processes. These factors collectively contributed to the increased use and demand for diaphragm pumps in various industrial applications.

The diaphragm pump market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.08 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period for the diaphragm pump market can be attributed to several factors. These include the growth in oil and gas exploration and production activities, increased adoption of diaphragm pumps in agriculture and irrigation, market expansion in developing economies and emerging markets, the demand for hygienic and aseptic pumping solutions in the pharmaceutical industry, and a focus on energy efficiency and reduced operational costs. Notable trends expected in the forecast period encompass advancements in material technologies, the integration of IoT and remote monitoring, the adoption of AODD (Air-Operated Double Diaphragm) pump technology, the development of hygienic and sanitary diaphragm pumps, pulsation dampening technologies, and applications in multiphase and high-pressure scenarios.

The diaphragm pump market is poised for growth, propelled by the increasing demand for oil and gas. Diaphragm pumps play a crucial role in the upstream and midstream phases of oil refinement by drawing oil and gas into refinery chambers. Specifically designed to withstand wear and efficiently transport large volumes of liquid in refineries situated above substantial oil sources, these pumps are vital in meeting the heightened demand for energy consumption as economies grow. For instance, data from 2022 reported by BP p.l.c, a UK-based oil and gas company, indicated a significant increase in oil consumption by 5.3 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2021. This surge in demand for oil and gas, especially in the transportation industry, is expected to be a driving force for the diaphragm pump market during the forecast period.

The diaphragm pump market is further bolstered by the anticipated growth in the petrochemical industry. Petrochemicals, derived from petroleum refining and other fossil fuels, are essential in various chemical products. Diaphragm pumps, known for their ability to safely transfer, dose, and meter chemicals, play a vital role in the petrochemical industry. According to the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilisers, Government of India, the chemical and petrochemical (CPC) sector in India is substantial, valued at 178 billion USD, and is projected to reach almost 300 billion USD by 2025. The growth in the petrochemical industry is thus contributing significantly to the expansion of the diaphragm pump market.

Innovation is a key driver in shaping the diaphragm pump market, with companies focusing on developing highly efficient and environmentally friendly solutions. A notable example is the introduction of the Husky 3300e electric double diaphragm pump by Graco Inc., a US-based fluid-handling systems and products company, in 2021. This innovative pump provides a cost-efficient solution for companies seeking environmentally friendly alternatives in the industry. The electric substitution in the device eliminates the high costs associated with compressors and offers up to an impressive 80% reduction in energy consumption compared to air-operated pumps. This emphasis on sustainable and efficient solutions is contributing to the evolving landscape of the diaphragm pump market.

Leading companies in the diaphragm pump industry are strategically advancing their technologies and expanding the reach of Flotronic pumps to various regions, aiming to gain a competitive edge and broaden their product offerings. Diaphragm pumps, such as those produced by Unibloc Hygienic Technologies, serve crucial roles in extracting or transporting petrochemicals, as well as handling viscous, toxic, and corrosive fluids. For instance, in May 2023, Unibloc Hygienic Technologies, a US-based precision-engineered positive displacement pump manufacturer, demonstrated its commitment to innovation and expansion by extending its Flotronic pump production from one facility to two, situated on different continents. The Flotronic Barrel Unloading System, a product of this expansion, combines the unique One Nut Sanitary Air Operated Double Diaphragm Pump with the Barrel Unloading Skid, specifically designed for applications involving high viscosities.

In a strategic move to bolster its presence and capabilities, Unibloc Pump, another US-based manufacturer specializing in products for sanitary flow control applications, acquired Electronic Pumps in September 2021. This strategic acquisition, executed for an undisclosed amount, positions Unibloc Pump to enhance its business operations in the UK and Europe while fortifying its stronghold in North America. Electronic Pumps, based in the UK, is recognized for its production of specialized air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps and associated accessories. This acquisition underscores the industry's commitment to geographic expansion and technological advancements to stay competitive and meet the diverse needs of the market.
