"Synthetic base oil is expected to be the fastest-growing type of the open gear lubricants market, in terms of value, during the forecast period."
Expanding equally, synthetic base oil is likely to be the fastest-growing base oil type in the gear lubricants market, driven by superior performance, longer service life, and all the good things environmental benefits that can be derived from using them rather than from mineral oils. Synthetic lubricants, namely PAO (Polyalphaolefin), PAG (Polyalkylene Glycol) and esters, exhibit exceptional thermal stability, clarity against wear, and so great load capacity that it is perfectly ideal for extremely heavy-duty industrial applications: mining, cement, power generation, and construction.
"Mining is expected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry of the open gear lubricants market, in terms of value, during the forecast period."
Mining was projected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry of the open gear lubricants market due to several key factors. The increase in deep mining operations due to depleted surface mineral reserves created demand for lubricants that withstand the pressures and temperatures presented in such harsh conditions. The adoption of automation and AI and IoT-enabled mining equipment soared, hence the need for superior lubricants that extend machinery life and efficiency. Stricter environmental regulations also affect this market, forcing mining companies toward low-toxicity, biodegradable lubricants that pass their sustainability goals.
"Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest growing region, in terms of value, during the forecast period in the open gear lubricants market."
In terms of value, Asia Pacific dominates the global open gear lubricants market, with China being the largest consumer of open gear lubricants globally. Increased investments and a rise in the number of new infrastructure development make Asia Pacific a prime market for open gear lubricants. Increasing government projects are expected to drive the demand for open gear lubricants in end-use industries such as mining, power generation, and marine. Additionally, the increasing economic growth, followed by substantial investment in the construction industry, will boost the demand for open gear lubricants in the region.
