Pressure Switch Market Trends

The growing popularity of HVAC systems is driving the market growth

The rising popularity of HVAC systems drives the Market CAGR for PRESSURE SWITCHES. The growing number of smart residences, the desire to reduce operating expenses, the need for environmentally friendly heating and cooling systems, and the growth in government programs to promote HVAC system upgrades are expected to propel the HVAC market. This is projected to increase the need for pressure switches. Increased expenditures in smart city initiatives, the auto industry, and the development of infrastructure projects drive market growth. Following the German Association of the Car Industry (VDA), car sales increased 5.3% between 2016 and 2017. As a result, increasing consumer appetite for electric cars and increased automobile manufacturing are propelling the automotive and transportation sectors.

Additionally, several industries are swiftly substituting traditional pressure switches with electronic pressure valves in their machines. They provide higher accuracy, consistency, ease of use, shifting phases, and stability over time. As a result, the market for electronic pressure switch technology is predicted to rise during the forecast period due to the substitution of traditional pressure switches in aging infrastructure.

The COVID-19 epidemic has affected corporate profitability in practically every industry. While the power industry was not as badly hit as other industries, industrial and commercial clients' electricity usage is considerably lower. Furthermore, the electricity sector has seen a global decline in demand and price reductions. North America, particularly the United States and Canada, has been severely hit, with the area seeing all-time low electricity costs in the first three months of 2020. Furthermore, due to the seriousness of the COVID-19 epidemic, many companies are focusing solely on critical tasks. This has caused a halt in the installation of electric components. Producers of hardware components in the power sector are dealing with several challenges relating to order closures due to the worldwide shutdown. The power production sector requires durable and efficient switchgear to meet the need for dependable electricity. Furthermore, several businesses are functioning at half capacity to assist critical industries such as electricity generation and production. However, as economies aim to resume operations to improve income creation progressively, consumer interest in switchgear is likely to resume its usual growth rate.

For instance, according to the German automobile industry organization, sales in the automotive market increased by 5.3% between 2016 and 2017. As a result, rising EV demand and increased manufacturing of cars are propelling the Switching Devices market in the transportation and automotive sectors. Thus, demand for Pressure Switches is anticipated to increase throughout the projected timeframe due to the popularity of HVAC systems. Thus, driving the Pressure Switch market revenue.
