Industrial Pumps Market Size

The global industrial pumps market was estimated at USD 46.4 billion in 2024. The market is expected to grow from USD 48.6 billion in 2025 to USD 77.1 billion in 2034, at a CAGR of 5.3%. The market is driven by surging demand from end use industry, advancement in pump technology along with global industrialization and manufacturing expansion.
 

Industrial Pumps Market

Industrial pumps play a key role in the oil and gas sector for the transportation of crude oil, water, and chemicals. While the demand for energy continues to grow globally, this factor also propelling the demand for effective pumping systems in extraction, refining, and transportation activities. As per the National Mining Association in 2023, imports of U.S. minerals totaled almost USD 6 billion, even though there were domestic reserves of USD 6.2 trillion. The mining sector spent USD 11 billion on reclaiming abandoned mines.
 

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, in 2022, U.S. mines produced nonfuel mineral commodities valued at USD 98.2 billion, and industrial minerals contributed 65% of this value. Crushed stone was the leading nonfuel mineral commodity, accounting for 21% of overall production value. Additionally, the EU mining and quarrying industry's net turnover rose 40% to USD 120 billion in 2021.
 

The demand for water treatment is growing significantly owing to the rising demand for effective water treatment solutions from various end users. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the average American family of four uses 400 gallons of water per day on average, and approximately 70% of that water is used indoors. According to the Aquasana, a water system company discovered that 77% of Americans filtered their home drinking water in 2022, a consistent risen from 74% in 2021.
 

Therefore, the management and protection of water resources, fresh & saltwater ecosystems, and the water used for drinking and bathing are one of the cornerstones of environmental protection. For instance, as per the statistical office of the EU, in 2023 Croatia recorded the highest renewable freshwater resources (with a long-term average of 30,000 m³ per inhabitant), followed by Finland (19,900 m³), Latvia (19,400 m³), and Sweden (18,900 m³).
 

Expanding industrialization within emerging markets like China, India, and Southeast Asia fuels the demand for pumps in manufacturing processes, power stations, and many industrial applications.
