 Market Overview

The global "Gas cylinder market"  is expected to reach at a CAGR of 2.6% during the forecast period 2021-2028.

A tank or gas cylinder is defined as a highly pressurized container that finds application in the storage as well as containment of various gases at a pressure above the barometricalrange. It is also called a bottle since the cylinder could contain matter existing in numerous states such as compressed gas, supercritical fluid, vapor over liquid, among others, in accordance with the physical characteristics of the contents. An average gas cylinder is designed in an elongated fashion, standing upright on a flattened bottom.The valve and fitting to attach the receiving apparatus are normally installed on top of gas cylinder for easy usage.

Market Dynamics

The growth in commercial and industrial demands of various gases such as anesthetic gas, LPG and others is expected to boost the gas cylinder market during the forecast period because gas cylinders are the easiest ways to transport these gases.

The demand increment of compressed gasses in various science and engineering fields

Liquified gases play an important role in varied science and engineering fields such as hospitals, where liquified anesthetic gas is widely required, automotive fields where liquified fuels such as LPG or automotive enhancers such as nitrous oxide find applications. Since these liquifiedgases require peculiar conditions offered by gas cylinders for storage and safety, the demand for gas cylindersis rising exponentially.

As per the statistical data provided by the International Trade Centre, the import of aluminum gas cylinders used for the containment of liquified gases in U.S. went from 4,595,931 units in 2018 to 6,093,337 units in 2020. Further, the import quantities in U.S. witnessed a growth of 14% between 2019 and 2020.

Since U.S. is one of the most majorconsumers globally of gas cylinders due to difficulty in establishing pipelines anda similar trend, with varying intensities, could be witnessed globally, particularly in the case of moderately essential commodities such as a gas cylinder. As a result, it could be indisputably argued that an increase in applications and demand for compressed gases have provided the global gas cylinder market with a tremendous boost over the recent years.

Growing construction activities  supplemented by population explosion have a tremendous impact onthe gas cylinderdemand

Building and construction areamong the most famous billion-dollar industries in the modern economy that could be considered one of the pioneer industries with high growth rates and the potential to transform into a trillion-dollar one. Modernity has witnessed enormous growth in construction activities over the recent years, primarily as a result of the babyboom experienced the world over.

According to United Nations, the global urban population grew from 751 million to 4.2 billion over 60 years between 1958 and 2018. Further, 55% of the global population lives in urban areas and is expected to increase to an astounding 68% by 2050. Governments worldwide are expected to invest extensively into various constructional activities to cater needs of newly added 2.5 billion people in urban areas.

As per the Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics, the volume of construction output is estimated to grow by 85% by2030. Around 4.0% to7.7% of GDP is currently invested for construction in East Asia, Pacific and Central Asia. If the focus is kept just to the housing requirements invarious countries, it is expectedthat most major economies,including China, U.S. and India need 7 million, 1.5 million and 11 million new houses, respectively.

The rising population tends to pressure governments and regulatory authorities for infrastructural developments such as housing and transportation facilities. Since many new-age building activities such as concrete curing, wielding and bitumen boilers require liquified gases of various sorts, a rise in constructional activities also points towards increased production and utilization of gas cylinders, which would indirectly offer a boost to the global gas cylinder market.

The heavy weight factor and dangers such asleakage and explosion restraints the global gas cylinder market

Although gas cylinders are functional and convenient, several risks and dangers lurk behind gas cylinders, despite how uncommon such instances are. The most common arguments raisedagainst gas cylinders are their tragedies, such as an explosion. Since gases stored in cylinders are extremely flammable and under extreme pressure, small leakages tend to have catastrophic results. Similarly, a close outlook of several industrial tragedies reveals the deep roots of the humongous weight quotient gas cylinders in them.

For instance, according to the American Gas Association, a 2.2% probability of significant explosions to occur exists per million urban dwellings units. Further, thestatistical data provided by the National Fire Protection Association, U.S.,reveals the fact that an average of 4,200 home structure fires occurs per year due togas leaks that cause an average of 40 deaths per year. As a result of many terrible tragedies, several people globally are wary and suspicious when it comes to gas cylinder and liquified gases, which tends to affect the customer purchase pattern as well as the overall demand generation of the global gas cylinder market.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The aftermath of COVID-19 on the global gas cylinder market tends to be positive primarily due to two important reasons; the first and foremost is increased consumption of oxygen cylinders in hospitals. According to the World Health Organization, the requirement for oxygen cylinders rose by around1.1million in several developingcountries, increasing gas cylinder production.

Secondly, the pandemic increased the number of people who cook within the household several times, which increased the number of LPG cylinders consumed by the people. As a result, production and demand for gas cylinders increased many folds, positively impacting the overall market.

Even though the pandemic inflicted several adversities to gas cylinder demand, such as disruptions in supply chain andproduction delays, overall positive impact of COVID-19 outweighs these adversities. As a result, it would be apt to say that overall impact of COVID-19 on global gas cylinder market is convenient and profitable.

Segment Analysis

The global gas cylinder market is segmented based onmaterial,product, gas,application and region.

The relative strength and resistance to corrosion are the main parameters that cater to the market share for Steel cylinders

Based onmaterial, the global gas cylinder market is segmented into steel, composite and others. Out of the mentionedmaterials, steel is expected to dominate the global gas cylinder market during the forecast period due tohigh availability of steel cylinders and availability of already established robust scientific methods for its production and processing. Additionally, steel cylinders are cheaper and are as efficient compared to their peers.

Geographical Analysis

Growing population and associated demand for food, infrastructure and healthcare to grow demand in Asia-Pacific

The region's population explosion should be considered the primary factor that catersto the market expansion of gas cylinders. The influence of population expansion on the gas cylinder market could be considered multivariant and could be broken down as follows.

• The rapid rise in food and cooking gas demand due to population growth significantly uplifted the respective market of the region due to the increased consumption of LPG gas cylinders.
• The growth in the need for medical gas cylinders such as oxygen or general anesthesia, another consequence of population explosion, further extended the demand generation curve of the gas cylinder market.
• Finally, the extensive growth in constructional activities and the dependence of construction on liquified gases for various purposes, such as welding and curing, acted as the cherry on top for the growth of the gas cylinder market in the Asia-Pacific region.

For instance, in 2018, an average growth of 8.4% was witnessedin the IndianLPG consumptiondue to the rapid increase in population combined with LPG penetration in rural areas, thereby making India the second-largest LPG consumer globally with an annual consumption of 22.5 million tons. Further, the projections and forecasts indicate that the LPG consumption in India is further expected to grow to 30.3 million tons by 2025 and 40.6 million tons by 2040.
