Due to the evolving industrial landscape, market players operating in the current industrial hose market landscape are increasingly focusing on innovations and product development to gain a competitive edge in the current market ecosystem. Several leading players are eyeing organic growth strategies, including product launches to establish a solid foothold in the industrial hose market. For instance, in September 2019, Eaton launched a newly developed blowout preventer industrial hose and expanded its range of blowout preventer (BOP) hoses, which are likely to exceed the fire test requirements. Similarly, in December 2019, Gates announced the launch of a new hydraulic hose MXG 4K in India, which offers optimum flexibility, is light in weight, has a compact design, and is a perfect choice for the industrial and automotive replacement sector.
As more number of players continue to launch new variants of industrial hoses, the focus on innovations and product development has witnessed an increase over the past few years.
Demand to Remain Steady amid COVID-19 Pandemic
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have a short-term impact on the growth of the global industrial hose market. While the demand for industrial hoses in the first two quarters of 2020 is projected to remain lower than usual due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the demand is likely to gain momentum in the last quarter of 2024 and the beginning of 2021. Stringent government regulations for different industries, restrictions on trade & transportation are some of the top factors that are projected to dent the growth of the market for industrial hoses around the world in 2020. As the industrial sector around the world is gradually shifting gears post the lockdown period, the demand for industrial hoses is on the rise.
