How is the Prevalence of Foodborne Diseases Boosting Sales?

Increasing concerns regarding the safety of perishable food and beverages, such as milk, eggs, cottage cheese, sour cream, fresh fruits, chicken, sauces, mushrooms, beef, and breads among consumers is likely to propel the demand for transportation condensing units worldwide.

Perishable food and beverages need to be refrigerated at 40 °F or below to prevent decay and spoilage. Transportation condensing units help in slowing down the growth of bacteria in these food items and prevent the occurrence of foodborne illnesses.

As per the World Health Organization (WHO), every year, around 600 million cases of foodborne diseases and 420,000 deaths occur worldwide owing to the consumption of unsafe food.

The organization also predicted that 33 million years of healthy lives are lost each year because of unsafe food worldwide. To reduce the prevalence of these diseases, the adoption of transportation condensing units is projected to surge in the forthcoming years.

What are the Key Drivers of the USA Transportation Condensing Units Market?

The presence of numerous frozen food and beverage manufacturers is likely to accelerate demand in the USA over the forthcoming years. North America transportation condensing units market is expected to account for 39.6% of the share in 2022, finds FMI.

Besides this, increasing government initiatives to encourage manufacturers to expand their production capacities and geographic presence is another vital factor supporting the USA market.

In November 2021, for instance, Governor Ralph Northam of Virginia announced that Nature's Touch Frozen Foods is planning to invest USD 40.3 million to broaden its presence in Warren County. The company’s new facility will be built by InterChange Group and raw materials will be directly imported to the facility for processing.

The Governor mentioned that this would help in reaching out to customers worldwide through the Port of Virginia and create new jobs in the area.

Backed these factors, the USA transportation condensing units market is projected to grow at a considerable pace over the assessment period.

How is the UK Transportation Condensing Units Market Faring?

Increasing implementation of stringent norms by the government to regulate the transportation of perishable food is expected to augment the market in the UK Europe transportation condensing units market is anticipated to generate approximately 32.5% of the share in 2022, says FMI.

The Government of the UK has updated its law regarding the transportation of perishable food in or out of the country by trailers, trucks, and heated or refrigerated vans in October 2019.

It has set out the number of documents that drivers need to carry to prove their vehicles meet the standards, the temperatures of various foods that are being transported, and the signs that need to be present on these vehicles.

Thus, the implementation of various stringent laws by the government to provide high-quality perishable food to customers is likely to boost the market in the UK

Which Cooling Capacity is Showcasing the Highest Growth?

Urgent Need to Lower Emissions is Boosting Demand for 10-15 KW Transportation Condensing Units

By cooling capacity, the 10 - 15 KW segment is estimated to lead the market in terms of the transportation condensing units market share in the near future. Increasing implementation of numerous rules by government bodies in various countries to regulate the usage of conventional condensing units is expected to boost sales in this segment.

According to the researchers of Brunel University, in the UK, the commercial food sector, including food manufacturing, transport, agriculture, and retailing is responsible for about 22% of the total greenhouse gas emissions.

Thus, to lower emissions in the environment, manufacturers are developing static refrigeration units of 10 - 15 KW cooling capacity, which is expected to drive growth in this segment.

Why are Sales of Scroll Compressors Gaining Traction?

Zero Pulsation Property to Raise Adoption of Scroll Compressors in Transportation Condensing Units

In terms of compressor type, the scroll segment is projected to remain dominant in the transportation condensing units market. As scroll compressors have excellent individual part-load and full-load efficiency, they are mainly preferred by manufacturers of transportation condensing units.

Additionally, continuous compression process with almost no vibration or pulsation is another factor which is expected to fuel the demand for spiral or scroll compressors. On top of that, these compressors have relatively lesser movable parts and provide lower vibration levels, compared to the others, which is estimated to bolster their demand in the forecast period.

Which is the Most Preferred Sales Channel?

Availability of Customization to Propel Demand for Transportation Refrigeration Units from OEMs

Based on sales channel, the OEM segment is anticipated to command a lion’s share in the transportation condensing units market. OEMs are developed by and for the manufacturers of trucks and trailers. They also help in monitoring the on-time delivery performance closely.

In addition, the increasing demand for customized transportation vehicles with state-of-the-art features, especially in developed economies is likely to propel the growth in this segment. Besides this, companies can save on capital costs spent to procure factory space and machinery by outsourcing manufacturing. These factors are expected to continue pushing sales over the forthcoming years.

Which is the Leading Vehicle Type in the Transportation Condensing Units Market?

Food Manufacturing Companies are Preferring Trailers Equipped with Refrigeration Units

Based on vehicle type, the trailers segment is expected to remain at the forefront in the transportation condensing units market over the forecast period. Growth is attributable to surging demand for refrigerated trailers to transport perishable food in a temperature-controlled environment.

Besides this, growing trend of online shopping and the rising demand for fresh fruits and dairy products across the globe are likely to drive the adoption of trailers for the transpotation of these products. Many food manufacturing companies are also using advanced trailers equipped with transportation condensing units to cater to the high demand for chilled food items.

Competition Landscape

The transportation condensing units market is highly consolidated. Strategic efforts of many key players are concentrated in maintaining a high sustainability quotient, planning innovative product launches, and making improved designs of condensing units.

Meanwhile, some of the other companies are focusing on expanding their manufacturing capacities, creating strong distribution networks, and entering the emerging markets by assessing the demand patterns. For instance:

  • In January 2022, CCC Holdings Europe S.p.A., a private equity firm based in Italy, acquired Kobol, a Spain-based manufacturer of ventilated units, such as evaporators, condensers, gas coolers, dry coolers, and condensing units. This acquisition would enable CCCHE to expand its existing ventilated unit product portfolio and provide its customers with energy-efficient and natural solutions.
  • In June 2021, Nidec Global Appliance, a Japanese manufacturer and distributor of electric motors, announced its plan to invest about USD 70 million in the development of new production lines for its Embraco brand condensing units and compressors, including isobutane (R600a) and propane (R290) models.
