Antifreeze Recycler Demand Analysis (2017-2021) Vs. Market Outlook (2022-2032)

According to a recent analysis by Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, utilization of antifreeze recyclers experienced a growth rate of 0.3% over the past half-decade. This was due to the severe effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global antifreeze recycler machine market. According to the research, the market witnessed a declined growth of -8.6% in 2020.

There is growing demand for reverse osmosis-based antifreeze recyclers in industrial machinery and equipment. Surging application of antifreeze recyclers with capacity of 100-200 GPH in prominent regions such as North America and Europe are likely to open new doors for antifreeze recycling service companies in the near future.

Furthermore, surging use of ion-exchange-based antifreeze recyclers in the automotive sector at a cost-effective price point is likely to supplement market growth during the assessment period. This segment is estimated to capture 20% of demand by 2023 and gain 131 BPS over the same period.

Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, foresees thriving growth in demand for antifreeze recycler machines. A few decades ago, antifreeze recyclers were only used in industries such as automotive and manufacturing. However, they have now become a key component in the coolant recycler market. Antifreeze recyclers are highly preferred by industries using internal combustion engines for power generation.

Antifreeze recyclers play a vital role in providing economic and time-saving options for the industry. The function of antifreeze recyclers is to recycle spent or waste antifreeze as they are highly recyclable products. Additionally, antifreeze recyclers aid in eliminating contaminants present in antifreeze, which enables manufacturers to save on disposal fines imposed by governments.

Demand for portable antifreeze recyclers is projected to increase due to the expanding demand outlook for industrial antifreeze recyclers in end uses. Owing to which, antifreeze recycler machines are likely to be utilized for waste management on a significant scale in the next couple of years, and are likely to generate an absolute $ opportunity of US$ 16.3 Mn during the assessment period.

What Road Lies Ahead for Antifreeze Recycling Service Providers?

“High Cost of Virgin Antifreeze Likely to Create New Opportunities for Antifreeze Recycler Machine Market”

Heavy machinery and equipment are often utilized for manufacturing purposes in multiple end-use industries such automotive, paper& pulp, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and others. Due to heavy operations and continuous processing, these machineries are likely to liberate extensive heat and experience the issue of overheating, which further impacts their lifespan and other specifications.

To maintain the ideal temperature for smooth operations, there is extensive and repetitive use of antifreeze in the manufacturing sector. Due to highly recyclable properties, ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are used as a raw material in antifreeze. Virgin antifreeze is an expensive commodity that can only be replaced with recycled antifreeze, which is comparatively cost-effective.

Therefore, recycled antifreeze is considered as a cost-effective substitute for virgin antifreeze, which aids manufacturers in saving overall production costs. Recycled antifreeze reduces costs by 40%-60% of antifreeze recyclers, and is gaining traction since it is also a time-saving option for manufacturers.

“Stringent Environmental Regulations in Emerging Markets to Provide Inevitable Boost to Market Penetration”

Utilization of industrial machinery and automotive cars has been rapidly increasing on a large scale. ASEAN countries such as India, China, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore are witnessing a steep growth rate in the manufacturing and automotive sectors. This growth has given rise to the demand of antifreeze and coolants.

Used antifreeze generation and disposal in sewers, water bodies, and in the ground has also increased in the recent past. Therefore, regional governments have imposed strict rules & regulations and heavy fines for the disposal of antifreeze due to its hazardous impact on the environment.

“Customization of Antifreeze Recyclers to Aid Market Expansion”

Based on the Fact.MR study, requirements of the manufacturing sector are highly specific and need to be catered in order to function properly. Customers require a specific type of tank capacity, procedure, and other specifications.

Manufacturers have streamlined their product ranges as per demand to attract more customers towards product utilization. Manufacturers are providing customized products that can specifically cater to the demand of respective clients. Therefore, client-specific customized antifreeze recyclers are driving market growth in an assertive way.

What Do Antifreeze Recycler Suppliers Need to Watch Out For?

“Rising Adoption of EVs to Affect Sales of Antifreeze Recyclers”

One of the potential restraints in the antifreeze recycler market is the high adoption rate of electric vehicles. Since there has been tremendous growth in electric vehicles, internal combustion engine vehicles are facing a huge risk of potential decline.

Additionally, EVs are more economical than internal combustion-based vehicles in the long run. Also, the rate of CO2 emissions from EVs is very low as compared to conventional IC engine-based vehicles.

Leading countries such as the U.S., China, Canada, Germany, Russia, and others are following the trend of electric vehicles. Due to this, sales of IC vehicles are expected to decline in the next half decade, and will directly pose a negative effect on the demand for antifreeze over the assessment period.
