Industrial Valve Market Research Report – Forecast till 2030

Impact of COVID-19 on the Industrial Valves Market

The spread of COVID-19 has led to strict measures being taken by governments across the world. To reduce the spread of the pandemic, nationwide partial or complete lockdowns were imposed in many developing and developed countries. These lockdowns resulted in the temporary closure of manufacturing plants, retail stores, malls, and restaurants, adversely impacting the global economy both in terms of revenue and product demand. The production of Industrial valves was disrupted, causing a huge gap between demand and supply. The COVD-19 pandemic also impacted the supply chain operations of industrial valves manufacturers. Companies have faced liquidity issues; however, few companies were able to sustain operations even during the pandemic. For instance, Flowserve Corporation, a provider of fluid motion and control products and services, continued to maintain a strong balance sheet. As of March 31, 2020, the company had available liquidity of approximately USD1.3 billion, including over $600 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately USD 710 million available under the company’s revolving credit facility.
