Vacuum Valve Market Report 2026

The vacuum valve market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.61 billion in 2025 to $1.78 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of chemical processing industries, expansion of analytical instrumentation usage, increasing adoption of vacuum furnaces, rising demand from food and beverage processing, growth of paper and pulp manufacturing.

The vacuum valve market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.7 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of semiconductor fabrication capacity, increasing demand for thin film coating applications, rising investments in pharmaceutical manufacturing, growth of flat panel display production, adoption of automated industrial process systems. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for high vacuum process control, growing adoption of stainless steel vacuum valves, increasing use of actuated vacuum valves, expansion of vacuum valves in semiconductor manufacturing, higher focus on leak proof and contamination free operations.

The growing semiconductor industry is anticipated to drive the expansion of the vacuum valve market in the coming years. This sector, which involves the design and fabrication of semiconductors and devices such as transistors and integrated circuits, is rapidly evolving. The primary factor fueling the demand for vacuum valves is the need to reduce semiconductor node sizes to increase processing power within a smaller footprint. As nodes shrink and chip designs advance, both the number of process steps conducted under vacuum and the demand for higher-purity vacuums increase. For example, in 2025, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), a U.S.-based trade organization representing the semiconductor industry, reported that U.S. semiconductor exports reached $57 billion in 2024. Consequently, the growth of the semiconductor industry is a key driver for the vacuum valve market.

Major companies in the vacuum valve market are increasingly prioritizing the development of advanced valve systems to support high-precision, energy-efficient operations in plastic processing and industrial manufacturing. These advancements are designed to improve vacuum stability, minimize production downtime, and enhance injection moulding efficiency. For example, in March 2023, Cumsa S.P.A., an Italy-based mould components manufacturer, introduced a next-generation vacuum system aimed at delivering superior performance in injection moulding processes. The system maintains optimal vacuum levels during part formation, reduces air entrapment, and ensures better mould cavity filling for high-quality outputs. With integrated smart control features and improved sealing technology, the system boosts productivity, lowers defects, and meets the demands of industrial applications requiring precision and consistency.

In April 2024, Atlas Copco Group, a Sweden-based company offering a diverse range of products and services across Compressor Technique, Vacuum Technique, Industrial Technique, and Power Technique, acquired Presys Co., Ltd for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enables Atlas Copco to integrate Presys's transfer and isolation vacuum valves, which complement its existing semiconductor product offerings. By acquiring Presys, Atlas Copco strengthens its position in the semiconductor market, particularly in vacuum technology, which is essential for semiconductor manufacturing processes. Presys Co., Ltd, based in South Korea, specializes in manufacturing and distributing vacuum valves tailored specifically for the semiconductor industry.
