Welded segment projected to be the fastest-growing during the forecast period

The welded segment is expected to be the fastest-growing of the global plate & frame heat exchanger market as it best performs under high pressure and high temperature. Since welded heat exchangers do not use gaskets and hence do not have to worry about gasket failure, they are better suited for preventing corrosion and leaking. Welded plate & frame heat exchangers are best used in the oil & gas, power generation, and chemical processing sectors, among others. Welded heat exchangers’ ability to be compact and handle aggressive fluids gives them an edge over other technologies and will continue to promote the rapid growth of the segment. As all industries continue to focus on durability, efficiency, and safety in extreme environments, the appeal for welded plate & frame heat exchangers is expected to increase significantly through 2030.

HVAC & refrigeration segment to be the fastest-growing of the market

With the increasing demand for energy-efficient climate control systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, the HVAC & refrigeration segment is expected to be the application with the fastest growth rate in the global plate & frame heat exchanger market. Plate and frame heat exchangers are compact and have high thermal performance, which positions them ideally for HVAC applications where performance and footprint optimization can have the greatest impact. Plate and frame heat exchangers are used for a variety of applications, including heat recovery, chilled water systems, and district cooling. The installation of energy-efficient systems has the potential to impact energy conservation, as well as operating cost savings, which can be significant throughout the life of the equipment. With global sustainability initiatives in building practices and the desire for decarbonization, the foreseeable future indicates that the use of HVAC and refrigeration systems will increase.

Danfoss (Denmark) is a leading supplier of energy-efficient heating, cooling, and power management solutions, providing a full range of heat exchangers for industrial processes, refrigeration, and HVAC. As an example of Danfoss’s green agenda, the Climate Solutions segment offers products, such as compressors, valves, condensers, pressure pumps, and heat exchangers in both, plate & frame and microchannel form factors. Danfoss has 97 production facilities in 20 countries and sales in more than 100 countries, which provides the company with an expansive global footprint. Danfoss has 34 specialized Climate Solutions facilities in 15 countries, and R&D is conducted in 23 countries. In addition, Danfoss has a strong market position in Europe and China, is reasonably well positioned in North America, and is looking to expand in the Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. The acquisition of Sondex provided great depth to the plate & frame heat exchanger business; however, Danfoss’s strong global distribution and manufacturing network provides it with the ability to manufacture products locally at a low cost. The compatibility of Danfoss’s compressors and heat pumps with the emerging trends of decarbonization and electrification allows for significant reductions in CO2 emissions. In 2024, the company invested approximately 5% of sales into R&D and sustainable innovation, wherein product development is one of the primary drivers. The acquisition of BOCK GmbH (a German CO2 compressor manufacturer) provides Danfoss with higher capacity for systems integration and the heat exchanger product line, which can be manufactured using low GWP refrigerants that are compatible across its entire product portfolio.
