The global oil-free air compressor market is experiencing robust growth, with China’s sales projected to reach 173,000 units in 2025, driven by a 19.3% year-on-year increase. This surge is attributed to rising demand in semiconductor manufacturing, food processing, and medical oxygen systems, where contaminant-free air is critical. The market size is expected to grow by 33.3% annually, fueled by applications in high-purity environments like chip fabrication and pharmaceutical production.
Key drivers include stricter environmental regulations and advancements in energy-efficient technologies, such as IoT-enabled systems and heat recovery solutions. Emerging markets in Southeast Asia and Africa are also contributing to this expansion, supported by infrastructure development and green energy initiatives.
