A diaphragm pump is a positive displacement pump that operates through hydraulically or mechanically driven reciprocating action, utilizing either a flapper valve or a ball valve to transfer liquids. These pumps are designed for tasks such as metering, dosing, and transferring liquids, particularly benefiting from their suction lift properties. Diaphragm pumps find applications in transferring various industrial fluids, including waste, debris, stones, sludge, and more.
Diaphragm pumps can be categorized based on their mechanisms, with the two primary types being air-operated and electrically operated. Air-operated diaphragm pumps use compressed air as a power source and are suitable for transferring a wide range of fluids, including slurries, sludge, abrasive substances, and highly viscous fluids. Diaphragm pumps operate in two main types such as single-acting diaphragm pumps and double-acting diaphragm pumps. These pumps serve diverse end-users, including those in water treatment, oil and gas, chemical industries, pharmaceuticals, and the food and beverage sector.
The diaphragm pump market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides diaphragm pump market statistics, including diaphragm pump industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a diaphragm pump market share, detailed diaphragm pump market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the diaphragm pump industry. This diaphragm pump market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The diaphragm pump market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.58 billion in 2024 to $7.13 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in chemical processing and petrochemical industries, demand for reliable and leak-proof pumping solutions, expansion of water and wastewater treatment facilities, adoption of diaphragm pumps in food and beverage processing, stringent regulations on emissions and leakage in industrial processes.
The diaphragm pump market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.8 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growth in oil and gas exploration and production activities, adoption of diaphragm pumps in agriculture and irrigation, market growth in developing economies and emerging markets, demand for hygienic and aseptic pumping solutions in pharmaceuticals, focus on energy efficiency and reduced operational costs. Major trends in the forecast period include advanced material technologies, integration of iot and remote monitoring, aodd (air-operated double diaphragm) pump technology, hygienic and sanitary diaphragm pumps, pulsation dampening technologies, multiphase and high-pressure applications.
The rising demand for oil and gas is anticipated to drive the growth of the diaphragm pump market. Diaphragm pumps are employed to draw oil and gas into a refinery chamber during the upstream and midstream phases of oil refining. These pumps are known for their high wear resistance and capability to transport large volumes of liquid in refineries situated above substantial oil reserves. As economies expand, energy consumption rises, particularly for moving commodities and materials from producers to consumers. For instance, in January 2023, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), a US-based government agency, reported that oil consumption increased by approximately 100 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2024. Therefore, the growing demand for oil and gas from the transportation sector is expected to propel the market during the forecast period.
The diaphragm pump market is further bolstered by the anticipated growth in the petrochemical industry. Petrochemicals, derived from petroleum refining and other fossil fuels, are essential in various chemical products. Diaphragm pumps, known for their ability to safely transfer, dose, and meter chemicals, play a vital role in the petrochemical industry. According to the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilisers, Government of India, the chemical and petrochemical (CPC) sector in India is substantial, valued at 178 billion USD, and is projected to reach almost 300 billion USD by 2025. The growth in the petrochemical industry is thus contributing significantly to the expansion of the diaphragm pump market.
Product innovation is significantly influencing the diaphragm pump market. Companies within this sector are concentrating on creating diaphragm pumps that are both highly efficient and environmentally friendly. For example, in June 2023, Graco Inc., a US-based company specializing in fluid-handling systems and products, launched the QUANTM pump. This pump features a groundbreaking electric motor design that is up to eight times more efficient than a conventional pneumatic pump. The innovative pump is suitable for nearly all fluid transfer applications and is available in various construction materials to accommodate a wide array of industrial and hygienic applications, including chemical processing, water treatment, paint manufacturing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and more.
Leading companies in the diaphragm pump industry are strategically advancing their technologies and expanding the reach of Flotronic pumps to various regions, aiming to gain a competitive edge and broaden their product offerings. Diaphragm pumps, such as those produced by Unibloc Hygienic Technologies, serve crucial roles in extracting or transporting petrochemicals, as well as handling viscous, toxic, and corrosive fluids. For instance, in May 2023, Unibloc Hygienic Technologies, a US-based precision-engineered positive displacement pump manufacturer, demonstrated its commitment to innovation and expansion by extending its Flotronic pump production from one facility to two, situated on different continents. The Flotronic Barrel Unloading System, a product of this expansion, combines the unique One Nut Sanitary Air Operated Double Diaphragm Pump with the Barrel Unloading Skid, specifically designed for applications involving high viscosities.
In August 2024, Tapco UK, a UK-based manufacturer of pumps, acquired TS Pumps for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is intended to enhance Tapco UK's product portfolio, broaden its market presence in the pumps industry, and reinforce its position by incorporating TS Pumps' specialized expertise and innovative solutions. TS Pumps is a UK-based company that specializes in diaphragm pumps.
