Executive Summary
According to the report, the cryogenic equipment market was valued at $19.9 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $39 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 7% from 2023 to 2032.Cryogenic equipment comprises of different products such as tanks, valves, pumps, vaporizers, vacuum jacketed piping, and others. Transporting liquefied industrial gases like oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, helium, and argon is done with the use of cryogenic equipment. In most cases, they are designed to store liquid gases at temperatures lower than -150°C. Horizontal, vertical, double-walled, and insulated configurations of cryogenic equipment are available. They can be moving or transportable as well as fixed or static. The equipment is used for storing LNG in LNG liquefaction terminals and on ships in the form of tankers. They also have several applications in a variety of industries including medical technology, food, electronics, and metal processing.
The increase in demand for LNG is expected to lead to a growth in the sales of cryogenic equipment as LNG requires specialized equipment for storage, transporting, and regasification. Cryogenic equipment including liquefaction plants, LNG storage tanks, and shipping boats work together as an important component of the LNG supply chain.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Cryogenic Equipment Industry
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on various industries, including the manufacturing industry. The pandemic led to disruptions in global supply chains, affecting the availability and delivery of cryogenic equipment, machinery, and raw materials. This disrupted the operations of cryogenic equipment companies, causing delays in project timelines and production.During the pandemic, the need for cryogenic equipment became apparent as countries around the world began mass vaccination campaigns to curb the spread of COVID-19. Vaccination centers, hospitals, and research facilities required specialized freezers and containers to store and distribute vaccines safely, which further led to an increase in the product demand.
The economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19 made it difficult for certain cryogenic equipment manufacturers to secure financing. Investors became more cautious, leading to a decrease in funding for new projects or expansion of existing ones. This uncertainty affected the long-term planning and investment decisions of cryogenic equipment companies.
