The Global Control Valves Market was valued at USD 6.94 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to witness a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4% over the forecast period 2024-2032. This market is primarily driven by the rising demand from critical end-use sectors such as water and wastewater treatment, oil and gas, and the energy and power industries. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of industrial automation across these industries is propelling the growth of smart control valves, which are gaining prominence due to their ability to optimize operational efficiency and enhance system control. The growing number of power generation plants globally and the surging need for energy, particularly from developing economies, are key factors contributing to the increasing demand for control valves.
The market is also benefiting from the growing oil and gas exploration activities across regions like the Middle East & Africa, North America, and China. These valves, especially in offshore and onshore oil production, play a crucial role in controlling not only the flow of fluids but also regulating their volume, direction, and pressure, which ensures operational safety and efficiency in these complex environments. Furthermore, stringent regulations aimed at reducing emissions are fostering the replacement of traditional valves with modern, energy-efficient alternatives. For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set regulations to promote the use of electric actuators over pneumatic devices to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.
Advancements in digitalization and automation within conventional plants are further driving the demand for advanced control valves. Control valves equipped with digital intelligence form an integral part of modern plant asset management strategies, allowing operators to monitor and optimize performance in real time. Leading manufacturers are heavily investing in research and development activities to keep pace with the evolving demands of various industries, particularly in the wake of rising environmental and economic pressures.
The Asia Pacific region dominated the market in 2022, accounting for the largest share of revenue, and is expected to continue growing at the fastest CAGR throughout the forecast period. The region's rapid industrialization, particularly in China and India, and increasing demand for automated systems across various industries are boosting the market. North America is also projected to experience steady growth, driven by technological advancements and the rising trend of process automation in the energy, water, and wastewater sectors.
