Pneumatic Conveying Systems Market Report 2026

The pneumatic conveying systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $33.95 billion in 2025 to $35.96 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of bulk material handling industries, expansion of cement and mining operations, demand for hygienic material transport in food processing, adoption of enclosed conveying systems, increased industrial automation.

The pneumatic conveying systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $44.03 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising pharmaceutical and chemical production, stricter workplace safety regulations, growth in battery and EV material processing, increasing focus on energy optimization, expansion of smart manufacturing facilities. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of dense phase conveying, rising demand for dust free material handling, growth in energy efficient pneumatic systems, expansion of automated bulk material transport, integration of advanced flow control technologies.

The growing automation is expected to drive the growth of the pneumatic conveying systems market going forward. Automation involves using mechanical or electronic devices to operate equipment, processes, or systems automatically, reducing the need for human labor. This rise in automation is fueled by technological advancements aimed at streamlining processes, increasing efficiency, and lowering labor costs. In automated operations, where consistent and accurate material handling is critical, pneumatic conveying systems provide precise control over the movement of bulk materials. These systems automate the transport of materials from one location to another, minimizing the need for manual intervention. For example, in April 2024, according to the International Federation of Robotics, a Germany-based international organization, manufacturing companies in the United States significantly increased automation efforts, with total industrial robot installations rising 12% to 44,303 units in 2023. Therefore, the expansion of automation is fueling the growth of the pneumatic conveying systems market.

Leading companies in the pneumatic conveying systems market are focusing on developing innovative custom vacuum conveyors to provide enhanced features for customers. Custom vacuum conveyors are advanced pneumatic systems that utilize the suction from a vacuum pump to move bulk materials. For example, in February 2024, Gericke, a US-based process equipment manufacturer, introduced its Vacuum and Positive Pressure Conveying Systems. These systems are designed to gently transport various bulk materials using suction generated by a vacuum pump. Their compact design allows for installation in confined spaces without disrupting ongoing processes, and they can be customized to meet specific requirements such as sanitary, explosion-proof, and other specialized standards.

In April 2023, Addtech Process Technology acquired Clyde Holding Limited for an undisclosed sum, gaining full ownership of Clyde. This acquisition is expected to bolster Addtech AB's process systems business unit with Clyde's considerable technical expertise. Clyde Holding Limited, based in the UK, specializes in manufacturing pneumatic conveying systems.
