The global secondary refrigerants market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.25 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is driven by increasing regulations on high-GWP primary refrigerants, pushing industries toward sustainable cooling solutions. Growth in cold chain logistics, industrial refrigeration, and HVAC applications further boosts demand for energy-efficient heat transfer fluids like glycols and CO? brines. Additionally, the rise of district heating and heat pump adoption supports market expansion.
The glycols segment dominated the market with a largest revenue share. The glycols secondary refrigerants market is driven by increasing demand for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly cooling solutions in industries like HVAC, food processing, and pharmaceuticals.
The heat pumps end-use segment dominated the market with a largest revenue share and expected to register significant growth. Heat pumps utilize fluids like glycols, CO? brines, and salt solutions to transfer heat efficiently in HVAC, industrial cooling, and district heating applications. These systems enhance energy efficiency by enabling indirect refrigeration, reducing reliance on high-GWP primary refrigerants. Growing demand for sustainable heating and cooling solutions, especially in residential and commercial sectors, is driving market expansion.
Asia Pacific dominated the market with a largest market share in 2024. This growth is attributed to increasing industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and HVAC are adopting secondary refrigerants like glycol-based solutions and CO? brines to enhance sustainability and system efficiency. Rising investments in cold chain logistics and industrial refrigeration further drive market expansion.
Some of the prominent players in the cryogenic gases market include Dow, Tazzetti S.P.A., Evonik Industries, Eastman Chemical Company, Clariant, The Lubrizol Corporation, The Linde Group, Temper Technology Ab, BASF SE, and A-Gas International.
