Pressure Relief Valve Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2024 - 2032
The Global Pressure Relief Valve Market was valued at USD 5.2 billion in 2023 and is projected to register a CAGR of 5.3% from 2024 to 2032. This growth is driven by increasing industrial activities across various sectors, which amplify the need for equipment that ensures the safety of high-pressure systems. In protecting equipment and preventing overpressure in these systems, pressure relief valves play a crucial role, making them essential components for industries dealing with high-pressure operations. As industrial projects and new facilities rise, the demand for reliable pressure relief valves to handle overpressure risks grows in parallel. Additionally, major infrastructure projects that involve high-pressure systems further boost the market.
As both governments and private companies continue to invest in infrastructure to support economic growth, the demand for effective pressure management solutions is increasing. Furthermore, efforts to modernize and upgrade outdated infrastructure are creating additional opportunities in the market, with advanced pressure relief valves being implemented to meet new safety standards and improve system efficiency. The market is segmented by type, with categories such as acting type PRVs, piston type PRVs, and diaphragm type PRVs. The acting type PRVs segment dominated the market in 2023, generating over USD 2.5 billion in revenue, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% through the forecast period.
These valves operate based on direct mechanical action, offering simplicity, ease of maintenance, and adaptability to diverse pressure settings. Their quick response to pressure changes makes them highly effective in handling overpressure in various applications, ensuring safety and efficiency. In terms of distribution channel, the market is classified into direct sales and indirect sales. The indirect sales segment accounted for around 62.3% of the market share in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5%.
This segment includes a network of distributors and agents who streamline the sale of pressure relief valves, expanding market reach and providing local support. Asia Pacific emerged as the leading region, generating USD 1.8 billion in revenue and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9%. The region's industrial expansion and infrastructure development drive the demand for pressure relief valves, supporting safety and efficiency across a wide range of high-pressure systems.
