The need for centralized refrigeration systems and related equipment has increased in several developing countries, including India, China, Brazil, etc., because of the quick growth and modernization of cold storage facilities. Cold storage facilities proved to be conducive atmosphere for the storage of food and beverage, dairy, ice cream, meat, poultry, and fish, as well as the products from chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Moreover, centralized refrigeration systems provide controlled temperature condition for storing perishable products, which helps in retaining freshness and maintain the taste of processed food products in hotels, restaurants, retail, and other commercial venues. However, centralized refrigeration systems, which are widely utilized in a variety of industrial applications such as food processing, product preservation, and others, demand a tremendous amount of energy to regulate the temperature in a facility.
Additionally, these systems require ongoing monitoring to regulate the flow of refrigerant and come with greater maintenance costs. Consequently, it is anticipated that these issues will restrain the centralized refrigeration systems market expansion. Additionally, modernizing cold storage and refrigerated facilities necessitates continual refrigerant flow monitoring and leak detection. As a result, IoT-enabled refrigeration solutions have become increasingly popular for monitoring machinery in the processing and storage industries. The players in the centralized refrigeration systems market in developing nations may benefit from lucrative opportunities for development as a result during the estimated period.
The centralized refrigeration systems market is segmented into components, refrigerant, end-user industry, and region. By components, it is segregated into compressors, condenser, evaporators, controls, and others. Depending on the refrigerant, it is classified into ammonia, carbon dioxide, F-gases, and others.

Executive Summary
According to this report, the centralized refrigeration systems market was valued at $29.8 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $49.5 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2023 to 2032. Centralized refrigeration system is a cooling system that is installed in industrial and commercial venues to refrigerate a particular facility in food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, bakeries, and other industries.Condensers are key components of any refrigeration system as they are essential for condensing the refrigerant into a saturated liquid state. In centralized refrigeration systems, water-cooled condensers and evaporative condensers are used to remove the heat extracted from the interior of the unit to the outside air. Furthermore, most of the condensers use cooling water and air as coolants, which in turn, is expected to fuel the demand for these condensers in refrigerated warehouses, cold storage rooms, and food & beverage processing industries.
Refrigeration system controls are defined as equipment that controls and optimizes the temperatures and pressures in a refrigeration system. These controls automatically adjust the refrigeration system’s operation to minimize its energy consumption, while maintaining higher productivity. Moreover, these controls also monitor changes in load, weather conditions, and operating requirements.
Centralized refrigeration systems comprise various components such as compressors, condensers, and evaporators, which are connected via a pipe and tubing for allowing the refrigerant to pass through them. Refrigeration control systems, such as thermostat control, defrost control, and head pressure control are used to control the flow of liquid refrigerant and optimize the temperature & pressure within the refrigeration system. Moreover, it minimizes the energy consumption of refrigeration system and maintains a predefined temperature for processes being refrigerated, which in turn, is expected to fuel the demand for refrigeration control systems in the near future.
HFCs are the most common type of F gases and were mainly used as refrigeration systems before the limitations on its use was introduced by The European Union. These are being phased out from commercial applications due to increasing concerns of environmental issues such as the depletion of the ozone layer and global warming. HFC acts as a greenhouse gas and is a non-flammable & non-toxic refrigerant, which contains hydrogen, fluorine, and carbon chemicals. Though HFC has a lesser impact on ozone as compared to other CFC refrigerants, these are allowed for commercial use only after their inspection. Subsequently, they are less preferred across commercial refrigeration applications. The demand for carbon dioxide refrigerant has rapidly increased in the centralized refrigeration systems market, as various industries prefer using carbon dioxide as a refrigerant where toxicity or flammability is a key concern. Carbon dioxide is used as the low-stage refrigerant in cascade installations. Moreover, carbon dioxide is non-toxic and non-flammable, and requires low circulation rate for freezing, thereby reducing the size of pumps, and energy consumption. Furthermore, the heat transfer efficiency of carbon dioxide is nearly constant for all practical temperatures. Therefore, an increase in focus on environmental issues, such as ozone layer depletion and global warming, could fuel the demand for carbon dioxide refrigerants during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific is the rapidly growing centralized refrigeration systems market. The increase in demand for food & beverages, growth in the pharmaceutical industry, and rise in the number of refrigerated warehouses in the region have fueled the growth of the centralized refrigeration systems market. For instance, according to Invest India, the Indian food processing industry is among the largest in India and is estimated to reach $535 billion by 2025. Moreover, Chinese food and beverages industry is also growing substantially. According to the International Trade Administration, China’s food and beverage sector reached approximately $595 billion in 2019, a 7.8% increase over 2018.
Furthermore, there has been a rise in the consumption of frozen food, majorly meat, in Australia in the last few years. Utilizing this opportunity, in November 2020, Proform Foods started production of meat products in its plant located in Sydney. This led to the installation of refrigeration systems for maintaining the products in inventory and for transportation under controlled temperature. Owing to such growth, cold-chain industry is also witnessing a rise. For example, the Indian government under its ‘Integrated Cold Chain and Value Addition Infrastructure’ scheme provides integrated cold chain and preservation infrastructure facilities.
The service provided under this scheme includes multi-product and multi-temperature cold storage, controlled atmosphere (CA) storage, packing facility, individual quick freezing (IQF), blast freezing in the distribution hub, as well as reefer vans and mobile cooling units for efficient distribution of various products such as non-horticulture, horticulture, fish/marine (excluding shrimp), dairy, meat, and poultry. Thus, the centralized refrigeration systems market is expected to witness significant growth in the organized retail stores, refrigerated warehouse, and pharmaceutical industry during the forecast period. In addition, China being one of the most important markets in the world, there are many manufacturers situated locally to serve their customers immediately.
The low labor and material costs in China help the manufacturers to produce refrigeration systems at lower prices as compared to the other nations. For instance, in November 2021, Bitzer, a compressor manufacturer based in Germany, is setting up a joint venture in Jiangsu, China's eastern region, specifically for the production of rotary compressors with smaller capacities. Such factors can be witnessed throughout the region; therefore, the growth of the centralized refrigeration systems market is expected to be higher in Asia-Pacific.
The centralized refrigeration systems market is segmented into components, refrigerant, end-user industry, and region.
