Global Air Compressor Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2023 - 2033
The global air compressor market is estimated to garner a revenue of ~USD 44 billion by the end of 2033 by growing at a CAGR of ~3% over the forecast period, i.e., 2023 – 2033. Further, the market generated a revenue of ~USD 33 billion in the year 2022. Air compressors are devices, pneumatic in nature, and use to increase air pressure by forcing air into a storage tank until it reaches its engineered upper limit. Then the compressor turns off and stores the air in the tank till its usage and again turns on to repressurize the tank once it reaches the lower limit. The immense growth of the oil and gas industry, which relies a lot on air compressors, is the primary factor driving the growth of the global air compressor market. It is estimated that in January 2022, about 119,101 were observed to be involved in the production of oil and gas.
