The Cable Management Market size is estimated at USD 17.87 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 28.93 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 10.11% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
Key Highlights
- One of the major trends driving the need for cable management products is the IT sector's rapid growth and the growing reliance of institutions and businesses on high-performance data & communication cabling.
- Many leading manufacturers report that most of their demands for raceways and other systems are for data & communication applications. As a result, manufacturers are designing newer products and system modifications, taking these systems well above their origins.
- Additionally, the growing need for cable connectors and heat shrinks in power networks, underground power networks, renewable energy networks, solar plants, and wind turbines are expected to support the market's growth throughout the forecast period, owing to their resistance to continuous sunlight, flames, and severe temperatures.
- Moreover, as industries around the globe are moving toward Industry 4.0, telecommunication has been turning out to be one of the key factors supporting every sector's development. Like other commonplace products in telecommunications, underground cable management, and cable sealing and acoustics, overhead cable management systems have been some of the most popular solutions for their cost-effectiveness, power supply, and distribution range.
- Moreover, the surge in high volatile raw material prices and cable installations for in-building wireless networks can be unmanageable to install and challenging to maintain as rising consumer and business demand for higher-performance cables might hamper the growth. In addition to this, common problems many modern offices have been facing are cable mismanagement and outdated design as oftentimes, with a significantly large number of cables and wires serving massive data and power needs, management has become untenable with antiquated methods such as cable trays or ladders. In addition to this capacity problem, there's also a rising issue of balancing operational efficiency with the aesthetics of a space.
- On the contrary, its rising importance in creating a visually pleasing and clean work environment, as well as the maintenance of basic functionality and protection of the devices from clogged airflow due to messy and disorganized cables, is creating significant opportunities for the studied market to grow.
Cable Management Market Trends
IT & Telecommunication segment is expected to promote market growth
- Telecom equipment is notoriously sensitive, especially the cables needed to maintain networks and connections properly. Owing to that reason, any equipment utilized to manage or organize those cables is required to be able to offer control without the risk of harm.
- Cables carry the data required to light cities, make cloud computing possible, and allow billions of devices to function. Hence, cable management is crucial to effectively control fiber rollouts, which are required to help the needs of business and residential customers, and the rollout of advanced technologies, such as 5G.
- In addition, according to Viavi Solutions, by May 2022, around 1947 cities across 72 countries had 5G networks available worldwide. China had the most cities with 356, followed by the USA with 296, and followed Philipinnes with 98 cities respectively.
- Furthermore, according to TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India), Reliance Jio was the top player in the country, with a wireless telecom subscriber base of over 419 million around India as of September 2022. and India was the second-largest telecom market worldwide. According to GSMA Intelligence, there were 1.10 billion cellular mobile connections in India at the start of 2023. It also indicates that mobile connections in India were equivalent to 77.0 percent of the total population in January 2023. Further, according to, Ericcsion, Total mobile subscriptions in the region are estimated to grow to 1.27 billion in 2029.
Europe is Expected to Witness Major Growth
- With the raised deployment of cables across multiple industries, the need for cable management solutions is also growing. The expanded demand for networks and facilities with the vast volume of cables has increased drastically in the region. Additionally, deploying high-capacity networks has led to complicated cable installations across different verticals. Thus, the requirement for the management of cables has gained prominence, promoting the region's cable management market.
- Multiple regional developed nations, such as Germany and France, are spending significantly on developing their infrastructure. With these surged investments in various sectors, enterprises also focus on renovating and enhancing their existing infrastructure to build better support for operations, which has been leading to growth in the cable management market.
- Moreover, with the surging energy demand and aging electricity infrastructure, governments across the region are largely moving toward modernizing energy grids by adopting smart grid solutions. Such transformations align with the rising propensity toward adopting new distribution and transportation infrastructure investments.
- Furthermore, one of the fastest-growing markets in the region is IT and telecom. Owing to the industry's rising demand for high-speed connectivity, various small and large businesses mainly concentrate on providing dependable services. The requirement for cable management solutions is also an outcome of the installation of new cables for supporting new services. One of the initial users of cable management, the industry is expected to influence market demand.
