The report highlights key factors driving the market growth and prominent players along with their developments in the market.
Power generation is the major market for industrial insulation. Proper equipment insulation helps with the maintenance of power plants that reduces the risk of injury or burns to workers. Industrial Insulation plays an important role in nuclear power plants, fossil fuel power plants, hydroelectric power plants, solar power plants, and coal-fired power plants. All these plants contain mechanical piping, which moves materials from one point to another. These pipes need insulation to maintain a certain temperature. Industrial Insulation is highly important in various hydroelectric plants as it aids the steam-generating boilers in maintaining temperature levels. In power plants, boilers have to withstand high temperatures and pressures.

Industrial insulated covers are an excellent option to save electricity, maintain process temperature, reduce heat loss, and improve workplace safety. Industrial Insulation is used in various power generation applications, including gas and steam turbines, pipelines, exhaust manifolds, diesel turbo covers, slide and flange valves, insulating sleeves, and heat exchangers where heat retention and process temperature are of concern. Therefore, the rising urbanization; industrialization; and emerging strict energy conservation regulations in various economies of Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, South & Central America, and Europe propel the application of industrial insulation in power generation.
According to United Nations, the global population is expected to reach more than 8.5 billion by 2030 and more than 9.7 billion by 2050, which is expected to increase the demand for electricity, oil and gas, and petrochemicals. The energy demand across the world rose by 0.9% in 2019, and electricity demand grew by 1.4% in 2019, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). In Austria, Belgium, Hungary, the Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, Sweden, Russia, and many European countries, demand for electricity increased in 2019. Therefore, the rising demand for energy and power generation in developed and emerging economies across the world drives the industrial insulation market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Industrial Insulation Market Growth
The COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted the global economy and slowed down the growth of various industries in 2020. The shutdown of manufacturing plants and factories in major regions, such as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa, adversely affected the global supply chains and hampered the manufacturing operations, delivery schedules, and goods sales. Further, various companies announced possible delays in product deliveries and a slump in sales of their products. In addition, the global travel bans imposed by countries in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America affected business collaborations and partnership opportunities. The decelerated growth of the chemicals & materials industry amid these unfavorable conditions restrained the growth of various markets related to this industry. Logistics constraints, manpower shortages, low demand, and government restrictions caused a temporary shutdown of businesses in the industrial insulation market.
However, the resurgence of various industries after the gradual resolution of supply constraints resulted in the revival of the demand for industrial insulation. In 2021, the increase in COVID-19 vaccination efforts and economic recovery reflected in the rise in industrial activities worldwide. Further, a rise in demand for products enhancing the performance of processes and efficiency of industrial equipment is supporting the growth of the industrial insulation market worldwide.
