The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to industry 4 integration, rising awareness of air quality, expansion of end-use industries, focus on sustainable practices, pandemic preparedness. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for clean air solutions, stringent environmental regulations, technological advancements, global impact of pandemic preparedness, focus on energy efficiency.

The global rise in air pollution levels is expected to drive the growth of the industrial air filtration market in the coming years. Air pollution refers to the release of harmful pollutants into the atmosphere that negatively impact human health and the environment. Industrial air filters are designed to capture pollutants and toxins in the air, preventing them from being released into the environment. Installing these filters in factories and other industrial settings can significantly reduce emissions, improving the surrounding air quality. For example, in 2022, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), a Switzerland-based health organization, air pollution is estimated to cause 7 million premature deaths annually. Therefore, the global increase in air pollution is fueling the demand for industrial air filtration systems.

The rising demand for clean energy is anticipated to further drive the growth of the industrial air filtration market. Clean energy includes all energy sources that do not produce harmful emissions, such as renewable energy sources and certain non-renewable sources like nuclear power. Industrial air filtration systems are essential in the clean energy sector, helping to control and reduce air pollutants generated during the production, processing, and utilization of these energy sources. For instance, in 2023, according to the International Energy Agency, a Paris-based autonomous intergovernmental organization, global renewable electricity capacity additions reached approximately 507 GW, nearly 50% higher than the previous year. This marked the fastest growth rate in two decades, with solar photovoltaic (PV) installations accounting for about 75% of the total additions. Additionally, there was a significant increase in wind power capacity, with a 66% rise. By 2028, renewable energy sources are expected to contribute over 42% of global electricity generation, with the combined share of wind and solar PV doubling to 25%. Therefore, the rising demand for clean energy is contributing to the growth of the industrial air filtration market.

Leading companies in the industrial air filtration market are prioritizing the development of innovative solutions to improve air quality, boost energy efficiency, and adhere to strict environmental regulations. These services aim to reduce downtime and maintenance costs by ensuring effective contamination control. For example, in September 2024, Donaldson Company, Inc., a US-based provider of filtration solutions, introduced specialized filtration services for manufacturers in the life sciences industry, specifically targeting the food and beverage markets in France, Germany, and Austria. This initiative focuses on enhancing product and process integrity by delivering customized on-site support throughout the life cycle of customers' filtration systems. Key services include filter integrity testing, equipment calibration, and compressed air quality measurement. This expansion further solidifies Donaldson's reputation for dependable filtration solutions and strengthens its presence in the European market.

Major players in the industrial air filtration market are committed to developing cutting-edge products such as high-efficiency filters to gain a competitive advantage. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, capable of removing at least 99.97% of airborne particles with a diameter of 0.3 micrometers, are a notable example. Alkegen launched LydAir GP in September 2022, a composite material featuring sorbent particles designed for efficient air filtration. The material exhibits a 20%-30% improvement in performance per specific gram of media, providing higher efficiency and customizable performance to meet diverse application requirements.

In January 2022, MANN+HUMMEL GmbH acquired Pamlico Air for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is expected to accelerate MANN+HUMMEL's growth in the indoor air filtration industry, a rapidly expanding sector. Pamlico Air, a US-based provider of high-quality indoor air filtration solutions, aligns with MANN+HUMMEL's commitment to advancing filtration technology.

Industrial air filtration involves the removal of solid particles and molecular pollutants from industrial operations to improve air quality within a system or environment. Its purpose is to prevent hazardous contaminants from affecting equipment and to purify air and gas streams for the safety of personnel and the workplace.

The primary types of industrial air filtration include dust collectors, mist collectors, fume collectors, HEPA filters, cartridge collectors and filters, baghouse filters, and other related products. Dust collectors, for instance, are designed to collect dirt, dust, debris, gases, and chemicals from the air, resulting in a cleaner air environment within the facility. These filtration systems find applications in various industries such as cement, food and beverages, metal, power, pharmaceutical, chemical and petrochemical, paper and wood processing, agriculture, among others, and can be utilized in both new systems and as replacements.
