Aluminium Cylinder Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (High pressure(>2000PSI), Low pressure(<2000PSI)), By Application (Food & Beverage, Medical, Special & Industrial, Others(Scuba, Fire extinguisher, etc.)) and Regional Forecast, 2025-2032

Aluminium cylinder refers to storage and transport of various gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, helium, carbon dioxide and natural gases above atmospheric pressure. These gases are utilized mainly in chemical industry, mining industry and hospitality industry. The major application of aluminium cylinder is into the storage and transport of industrial gas, medical oxygen, food & beverage grade gas and alternative aerospace gases. Moreover, high pressure aluminium gas cylinder creates hydrophobic layer on internal surface that does not absorb gas molecules.

The emergence of the global aluminium cylinder market is likely to witness high demand over the forecast period owing to its less weight, ease of transportation, non-affection of carbonic acid and resistance to corrosion nature. The companies are now focusing on aluminium cylinder & related products mainly in North America owing to its cutting edge technology and innovations in the large number of infrastructure development projects that are in progress. Companies are opting for merger & acquisition with local players to sustain the reach and maintain their position in the competitive market. For instance, Luxfer Gas Cylinders has signed a joint venture agreement with Uttam Air Products to manufacture aluminium cylinders in India. Furthermore, in June 2017, Worthington industries has acquired Amtrol for nearly USD 283 million to expand the core competencies of pressure cylinder to wholesale and retail customers.
