Report Description

The global welding fume extraction equipment market size was USD 1.82 Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 3.04 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 5.9% during 2023–2031. Increasing demand for several end-user industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction is likely to boost the market.

Welding fume extraction equipment is a type of industrial ventilation system used to remove hazardous fumes and particles generated during welding operations. Welding produces fumes and gases that can be harmful to the health of the welder and other workers in the vicinity if inhaled. Fume extraction equipment is designed to remove these fumes and gases from the work area, protecting workers from potentially harmful exposure.

Welding Fume Extraction Equipment Market Outlook

Fume extraction equipment can take several forms, including portable fume extractors, fume arms, and large fixed fume extraction systems. Portable fume extractors are typically small, lightweight units that can be moved easily from one welding station to another. They usually include a filter system and a fan to draw fumes away from the welder and into the filter.

Fume arms are flexible hoses that are attached to a fixed extraction system and positioned near the welding operation. The arm is adjusted to direct fumes away from the welder’s breathing zone and toward the extraction system. Large fixed fume extraction systems are installed in the facility and typically include ductwork, fans, and filters to remove fumes and gases from multiple welding stations.

Welding fume extraction equipment is an important safety measure that helps protect welders and other workers from the harmful effects of welding fumes. It is important to choose the appropriate fume extraction system for the specific welding operation, as different systems may be better suited for different types of welding and work environments.

The market report finds that the COVID-19 pandemic restraints the welding fume extraction equipment market, due to the severe lockdowns and supply chain disruptions.

Welding Fume Extraction Equipment Market Dynamics

Major Drivers

Increasing need for welding fume extraction equipment, due to the strict regulations implemented by several regulatory authorities to reduce the risks of exposure to harmful fumes is expected to drive the market.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has established a safety advisory regarding the dangers of welding fume on human health. Chronic and acute health risks are associated with welding fume. Lung cancer is the most common health risk and it affects the eyes and skin.

Growing demand for welding processes is boosting several end-user industries in the market. Several governments are focused on urbanization, industrialization, and infrastructural development in emerging countries, which is fueling the end-user industries.

Existing Restraints

Rising demand for welding fume extraction is restraining the market, due to the high additional investment, increased power consumption, and maintenance cost. Portable fume extraction systems have high maintenance costs, owing to transit damage and being dropped or hit.

Emerging Opportunities

Increasing demand for welding is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players. In the process of welding, two or more materials are joined by applying heat or pressure; thereby allowing the materials to cool. Welding is commonly used in automotive, aerospace, building & construction, marine, transportation, and other industries. Building and construction industries use a lot of metals for durability and structural integrity.
