Dublin, Aug. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "HVAC Insulation Market by Product Type (Pipes, Ducts), Material Type (Mineral Wool (Glass Wool, Stone Wool), Plastic Foam (Phenolic, Elastomeric Foam)), End-use Industry (Commercial, Residential, Industrial), and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global HVAC insulation market is forecasted to grow from USD 7.06 billion in 2025 to USD 9.10 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.2%. This growth is primarily driven by infrastructure development, industrial expansion, and the accelerating pace of emerging economies.
Nations globally are prioritizing infrastructure modernization across residential, commercial, and public facilities, increasing the demand for efficient HVAC systems. Insulation enhances HVAC efficiency by minimizing thermal loss, thereby improving energy performance and reducing costs, making it a critical part of sustainable construction practices in various regions.
Industrial growth is also a vital factor, particularly in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and cold storage, where temperature regulation is essential. With stricter energy regulations and environmental considerations, advanced insulation materials are increasingly adopted. The construction boom in emerging markets like Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East, driven by urbanization, income improvements, and population growth, creates a burgeoning demand for these materials, fueling market expansion.
Key players in the HVAC insulation market include Owens Corning Corporation (US), Saint-Gobain SA (France), Knauf Group (US), and Kingspan Group PLC (Ireland), among others. These companies, through significant investments and strategic developments, are shaping the competitive landscape.
Plastic Foam Segment Outlook
Plastic foam is projected to be the second fastest-growing material type in the HVAC insulation sector due to its excellent thermal insulation properties, lightweight nature, and versatility. Materials such as polyurethane (PU), polyisocyanurate (PIR), and expanded polystyrene (EPS) offer low thermal conductivity and moisture resistance, maintaining performance over time and reducing operational costs. This makes plastic foams ideal for HVAC applications in humid conditions, as their closed-cell structure resists water absorption. The ease of installation, adaptability, and mechanical strength make them suitable for various applications, from residential to industrial uses.
Industrial Segment Growth
The industrial sector is expected to be the second fastest-growing end-use industry in the HVAC insulation market. Industries like manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and food processing require efficient temperature regulation to ensure product stability and operational efficiency. HVAC insulation prevents energy loss and maintains stable conditions critical for production quality and compliance with safety standards. As energy efficiency and sustainability become paramount, the demand for robust insulation solutions in industrial settings continues to rise, particularly in emerging economies developing their industrial infrastructure.
European Market Projections
The European market is set to be the second-largest for HVAC insulation, driven by stringent energy efficiency laws and a commitment to green building practices. Regulatory frameworks like the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive necessitate high-quality insulation in constructions to decrease energy usage and emissions. National initiatives and incentives across Germany, France, and the UK further encourage energy-efficient upgrades, boosting market growth. Europe's established construction industry and environmental awareness foster consistent demand for advanced insulation solutions, particularly for retrofitting older buildings.
