A vacuum pump is a device designed to remove gas molecules from a sealed volume, creating a partial vacuum. Its primary purpose is to lower the pressure within a system, serving various applications across industries such as manufacturing, scientific research, and medicine. These pumps facilitate processes requiring low-pressure environments, such as electron microscopy, semiconductor manufacturing, and vacuum sealing.
The main types of vacuum pumps include positive displacement, dry vacuum, centrifugal, and momentum transfer pumps. Positive displacement pumps create a vacuum by trapping a specific volume of gas and then mechanically expanding that volume, reducing the pressure within the trapped gas and drawing in more gas from the surroundings. They utilize mechanisms such as gas transfer and gas binding, operating at different pressure levels such as low, medium, high, ultra-high, and extreme high vacuum levels. End-users of vacuum pumps span industries such as automotive, chemical and petrochemical, aerospace and defense, oil and gas, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, among others.

The vacuum pumps market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.5 billion in 2024 to $5.84 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the emergence of new end-use industries, pharmaceutical developments, chemical industry growth, energy sector needs, and increasing environmental regulations.
The vacuum pumps market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.36 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of the semiconductor industry, energy sector expansion, development of emerging markets, increasing research and development activities, and growing focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. Major trends in the forecast period include industry 4.0 integration, the development of energy-efficient vacuum pumps utilizing advanced materials, a trend towards miniaturized vacuum pumps, advancements in high vacuum technologies, and the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology into vacuum pumps.
The growing food and beverage industry is expected to drive the expansion of the vacuum pumps market in the future. The food and beverage industry includes the production, processing, packaging, and distribution of food and drink products for consumption. This industry is expanding due to changing consumer preferences for convenience foods, increasing demand for healthy and organic options, and a rising global population that is fueling consumption. Vacuum pumps play a crucial role in the food and beverage industry by extending shelf life and preserving product quality, as they remove air and prevent oxidation during packaging and processing. For example, in October 2023, the Agriculture and Agri-Food Department of Canada reported that exports of processed food and beverage products reached a record $54.3 billion in 2022, reflecting a 14.1% increase from the previous year and accounting for 34.7% of the total production value. As a result, the growth of the food and beverage industry is driving the demand for vacuum pumps.
Leading companies in the vacuum pumps market are innovating with new products such as dry-running vacuum pumps to stay competitive. Dry-running vacuum pumps create partial vacuums or low-pressure environments by removing gas molecules from sealed volumes. For instance, in March 2023, Flowserve Corporation introduced the SIHI Boost UltraPLUS dry-running vacuum pump, designed to reduce cycle times for batch processes by up to 50% or more, particularly effective in load lock applications. This advanced pump retains the benefits of oil-free operation and electronic synchronization while significantly improving performance, cutting re-acceleration time by up to 50%.
