Flame Arrestor Market Report 2026

The flame arrestor market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.81 billion in 2025 to $6.26 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising industrialization globally, increasing usage of flammable gases in industries, early establishment of safety control standards, expansion of oil and gas operations, initial investments in explosion prevention systems.

The flame arrestor market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.48 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing regulatory enforcement on industrial safety, increasing modernization of processing facilities, rising demand from chemical and power sectors, expanding infrastructure requiring safety equipment, increasing focus on workplace hazard prevention. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for industrial safety protection devices, growing adoption of flame control solutions in hazardous operations, rising focus on preventing combustion risks in industrial systems, increasing integration of advanced process safety mechanisms, growing implementation of safety compliance in high risk industries.

The rising level of oil and gas exploration activities is expected to drive the growth of the flame arrestor market in the coming years. The upstream segment of the oil and gas industry encompasses exploration activities such as geological surveys and land acquisition, as well as production activities including onshore and offshore drilling. Flame arrestors are safety devices designed to allow gases to pass through while preventing flames from propagating, thereby reducing the risk of fires or explosions during gas handling and transportation. With increasing production levels and heightened safety requirements across oil and gas operations, the demand for flame arrestors continues to rise. For instance, in April 2025, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), a US-based government energy data agency, US crude oil production increased by 270,000 barrels per day in 2024 to average 13.2 million barrels per day, representing a 2% rise compared to 2023. As a result, the expansion of oil and gas exploration and production activities is contributing to the growth of the flame arrestor market.

Rapid industrialization is another key factor expected to propel the growth of the flame arrestors market. Rapid industrialization refers to the transformation of an economy from an agriculture-based structure to one driven by manufacturing and industrial activity, characterized by expanding industries, growing transportation infrastructure, and the adoption of new technologies. Flame arrestors play a vital role in ensuring operational safety in hazardous industrial environments and are widely used across oil and gas facilities, mining operations, manufacturing plants, and industrial vehicles. For example, in October 2023, according to the Federal Reserve System, a US-based central banking authority, industrial production in the United States increased by 0.3% in September and grew at an annual rate of 2.5% during the third quarter, while manufacturing output rose by 0.4% in September. Consequently, rapid industrial expansion is fueling demand for flame arrestors.

In May 2024, Kimray Inc., a US-based oil and gas equipment manufacturer, partnered with LaMOT Valve and Arrestor to expand the availability of LaMOT’s gauge hatches, pressure and vacuum relief valves, and flame arrestors across the Mid-Continent oil and gas region. Through this collaboration, Kimray aims to integrate LaMOT’s storage tank safety and flame control solutions into its sales and service network, enhancing tank protection, venting performance, and overall operational safety. The partnership is intended to reduce unplanned maintenance, support regulatory compliance, and enable cost-effective deployment of reliable flame arrestor solutions. LaMOT Valve and Arrestor is a US-based industrial safety equipment company specializing in flame arrestors and storage tank safety components.
