For example, countries continuing their projects on a grand scale, such as China's Belt and Road initiative or a frenzied construction phase with some key measures such as making dams or laying a railway line in neighboring other countries, are supporting the market dynamics, increasing the demand for industrial cooling solutions. Also, companies seek environmentally friendly equipment for a lower carbon footprint.
For instance, in July 2024, Parker Hannifin Corp announced the launch of its Hyperchill Plus-E, a new eco-friendly industrial process chiller used in HVAC &amp; Refrigeration, Industrial Manufacturing Equipment, Life Science, Oil and Gas, and Power Generation &amp; Renewable Energy applications. Compared to earlier ranges, some extra features include the use of a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerant, R513A, which is classified as Safety Class A1 by ISO 817. This GWP refrigerant can be installed both indoors and outdoors without posing any additional safety risks or requiring additional maintenance or transportation expenses because of its non-flammable characteristics.
<h2>Wide Range of Usage&nbsp;to make the Water-Cooled Segment Leading</h2>
Based on medium type, water-cooled chillers lead the industrial chillers market. Water-cooled chillers are known for their superior energy efficiency compared to air-cooled alternatives. They use cooling water, and the thermal conductivity value of water is higher than that of the air. Its dissipation potential is higher, so it consumes less power and saves resources. Therefore, they have become a go-to option where cooling capacities amount to a much larger scale due to manufacturing sites and data centers. They take up a significantly large range and are usually employed in the tons range of 10-4,000.
Water-cooled chillers&rsquo; scalabilities make them handle heavy loads in cooling, a key factor in industries such as chemicals and pharmaceuticals in which temperature must be maintained with close accuracy. They are designed to last longer and be quite reliable under heavy operational loads. The robust construction and efficient cooling mechanisms present in the machine make it ideal for continuous industrial operations. This reliability is particularly important to industries that cannot afford downtime, such as healthcare and food processing, further securing water-cooled chillers' place as the end-user's first choice. Companies focus on launching water-cooled systems with lower global warming potential to capture a wide range of industrial applications.
For instance, in March 2024, Daikin Industries, Ltd. introduced an enhanced Navigator WWV water-cooled screw chiller with low-global warming potential (GWP) R-513A refrigerant. Building owners and operators can reduce utility costs and expedite their sustainability and decarbonization initiatives by combining a low-GWP refrigerant with a heat recovery arrangement.
<h2>Asia-Pacific Leads in the Industrial Chillers Market</h2>
Based on the region, Asia-Pacific leads the industrial chillers market and is expected to hold the major share during the forecast period.
