Rapidly growing building & construction and food & beverage industries in Europe is likely to drive the Europe pumps industry. A pump is used to move fluids such as gases, liquids, or slurries, by mechanical action. Pumps function through several energy sources such as electricity, manual operation, diesel engines, or wind power. Mechanical pumps serve in a wide range of applications such as dewatering & sewage, pond filtering and aeration, extracting water from wells. Pumps are also utilized in automobile sector for fuel injection and water-cooling, and in the energy sector for pumping natural gas or oil, or for operating cooling towers etc.
Germany will hold sway the regional market with the presence of several semiconductor and fine chemical manufacturers in the country. Europe also has several high-quality pump manufacturers such as Atlas Copco, Grundofos and Sulzer catering to the regional demand. The end-users in this region also import pumps from competitive manufacturers of U.S., Japan, and China at comparatively lower costs as the European manufactured products are usually high priced compared to the global market.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the construction, oil & gas, mining, and various other industries in Europe. Adverse impact of COVID-19 such as disruption in production, shortage of raw materials, financial crisis across industries, has led to reducing market revenue of pumps in the region in FY 2020.
