The compressed air filtration and dryer system market is expected to expand its roots at an average CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period. The market is likely to hold a revenue of USD 5.69 billion in 2023 while it is anticipated to cross a value of USD 9.91 billion by 2033.
The requirement of high-quality compressed air in several industrial processes is the prime requirement for air compressor and dryer systems. With the rapid establishment of industrial units in developing countries, the sale of compressed air filtration and dryer system is estimated to grow at a higher rate in the forecast period.
As the atmospheric air contains a large amount of water in a vapor state, the compressed air systems need to be dried and filtered before any industrial use. The equipment supplied by the compressed air filtration and drying system market to remove water and other contaminants has been experiencing higher sales in recent years.
Compressed air dryers are developed by applying technologies based on Freon or Joule-Thompson capable of operating at a volume according to industrial demands.
The use of cycling dryers that can operate even when the industrial refrigeration system is shut down is also produced with higher applicability in energy-efficient systems. Advancement in such energy-efficient technologies is poised to increase the adaptability of air dryer filters profiteering the market players.

Rising awareness among small industrialists about the benefits of deploying air compressor filters and dryers in industrial machinery and equipment has boosted sales.
Pipes and fittings used in industrial units such as industrial refrigeration systems or point-of-use water treatment plants use compressed air filtration devices to minimize the accumulation of contaminants. This type of desiccant filter for air compressors also prevents water accumulation and reduces the maintenance cost of installed machinery and equipment from corrosion.
As these types of air dryer filters increase the productivity of the production system so are expected to experience greater demand from major manufacturing industries. With the growth in business volume of automakers, oil, and gas, and chemicals, the sale of inline desiccant air dryers is anticipated to be soaring during the forecast years.
Various companies have come up with new ideas for air compressor dryers that are emerging as a lucrative opportunity for the global compressed air filtration and dryer system market.
Air compressor dryer for painting is one such product for which the demand is growing in the local markets. Catering air compressor filters to smaller units as a raw material for further value addition is anticipated to be a significant opportunity for the growth of the compressed air filter market.
Air dryers and filters, demand from small and regional units has remained low during the analysis period and before.
Most industries requiring compressed air for various operations produce it in an auxiliary unit that is highly expensive. Some industries avoid the system altogether, which can be a significant restraint for the growth of the global market for some more years.

Stringent regulations to maintain the quality of pharmaceutical products and food & beverages are anticipated to be the key driving factor for the growth of the market.
Among the two types of products, compressed air dryers hold a higher value in terms of total revenue generated in the global market. Industrial plants experience frequent changes in operating temperature. Endothermic or exothermic processes require dried air that is obtained from industrial refrigeration systems or dryers.
Compressed air filters are also a crucial part of the industrial manufacturing units operating under severely contaminated air of chemical particles.
As the demand for 3 stages compressed air filters is limited only to pharmaceutical and food & beverages companies, the market share of this segment has remained somewhat lower.
Automotive industries around the world account for a huge share of the total use of compressed air filters on a global level. Compressed air filters and dryers are the fundamental equipment for the automotive installed for cabin air filtration, air conditioning, or even pneumatic brakes.
Inline desiccant dryers are also a very important part of the chemical industries dealing with toxic and combustible gases. The requirement for highly pure products along with maintenance of proper safety and isolation has made the best air compressor filter dryer a highly demandable product for the chemical industries.
The traditional manual packaging of pharmaceuticals also reduced the quality of products. This led to market damage as the use of desiccant filters for air compressors can ensure packaging is free from moisture and oil. So these are readily sought by pharmaceutical chemical companies.
Compressed air filtration and dryer system have a wide variety of application areas that makes them a very profitable business in the electronics manufacturing sector. Several demands for variable DC power supply units are generated by the industrial sector, having large production units that operate on electricity.
The automotive segment is the most attractive end-user for the compressed air filtration and dryer system market. The segment is estimated to witness a higher CAGR of 4.0% than the other sectors during the forecast years.
The sales of various devices required for establishing wireless communication and infrastructure facilities have increased due to the rise in netizens worldwide. This has led to a surge in the use of modems and gadgets that run on 12v 5a power supply. As a result, positioning the wireless communication & infrastructure segment has been a very profitable segment for the market in recent years. Other key end users of variable power supply units include energy and aerospace segments.
