The global air duct market reached approximately USD 9.74 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.60% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of around USD 14.65 billion by 2032.
Air ducts are defined as pipelines that aid heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems to circulate clean and fresh air in an enclosed space. Air ducts are a key component of an HVAC system, distributing conditioned air throughout a building to maintain indoor air quality and thermal comfort. They can also facilitate the removal of dust, airborne bacteria, and other particles when properly filtered and maintained.
The air duct market growth is fuelled by the increasing expenditure on HVAC systems in recent years. Air ducts are essential to maintain the flow of cold and warm air in enclosed spaces and transport the same amount of air back into the HVAC systems to avoid suffocation. In addition, air ducts aid in creating a clean environment by removing dust particles and unwanted microorganisms, such as pollen, bacteria, and viruses from the enclosed space. Furthermore, the market growth can further be associated with their applicability to improve the air quality of the enclosed space by circulating clean air. Additionally, air ducts are commonly found in residential spaces to remove unwanted odours like cooking smells and pet smells, among others.

Energy efficiency and sustainability; high-quality indoor air quality; use of advanced materials; and smart HVAC systems are the major trends impacting the air duct market development
February 26th, 2024
Saint-Gobain, a provider of air ducts, announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire all the shares of CSR, an Australia-based building products company.
August 11th, 2023
FabricAir, a provider of HVAC and air ducts, announced that it is expanding its market presence in India.
June 20th, 2023
Lindab became the first company to produce ventilation ducts using fossil-free steel which marks a significant milestone in the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) sector.
April 28th, 2023
Aeroseal announced the launch of HomeSeal Xpress (HSX), a next-generation duct-sealing system, which is specifically designed for integration into residential houses.
Energy efficiency and sustainability
Air ducts that minimise energy loss, reduce carbon footprint and are made from sustainable or recyclable materials are gaining popularity.
High-quality indoor air quality (IAQ)
With a growing focus on health and well-being, there is an increased emphasis on air duct systems that improve indoor air quality.
Use of advanced materials in the air duct market
The market is witnessing a shift towards the use of advanced, lightweight materials for air duct construction, such as high-performance plastics, fibreglass, and coated fabrics.
Smart HVAC systems
These systems include air ducts that can dynamically adjust airflow based on real-time environmental conditions or occupancy levels.
With a rising awareness of health and well-being, the quality of indoor air has become a significant concern for many people and this concern stems from the understanding that indoor air quality (IAQ) can significantly impact health, productivity, and comfort. Modern air duct systems often incorporate more advanced filtration systems designed to capture a higher percentage of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, mould spores, bacteria, and viruses, contributing to the air duct market development. HEPA filters, for example, can trap particles as small as 0.3 microns with 99.97% efficiency, significantly improving air quality.
Market players are leveraging eco-friendly materials in the production of their products to promote sustainability. Lindab became the first company in the world to produce ventilation ducts using fossil-free steel in June 2023. This development is particularly noteworthy against the backdrop of growing concerns about climate change and the environmental impact of manufacturing processes. Fossil-free steel is made using methods that do not rely on coal or other fossil fuels, which are traditionally used in the steelmaking process.

“Air Duct Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032” offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Market Breakup by Type
Market Breakup by Shape
Market Breakup by Application
Market Breakup by Region
Galvanised steel ducts maintain their dominance in the market due to their high durability and corrosion-resistant nature
Galvanised steel ducts hold the highest share of the air duct market, especially in industrial settings. They are coated with zinc to prevent rust and corrosion, making them highly durable and suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including those requiring robust fire resistance and mechanical strength. They are favoured in environments where the ductwork may be exposed to harsh conditions or where there is a significant need for a long-lasting, sturdy ducting solution and their rigidity and durability make them a preferred choice for permanent installations.
Aluminium ducts are anticipated to gain robust growth in the forecast period. Aluminium is lighter than galvanised steel, making it easier to install and handle. It also offers excellent corrosion resistance and is suitable for a wide variety of applications, including those requiring clean air delivery, such as in food processing plants or hospitals. Aluminium ducts can be used in both rigid and flexible forms, providing versatility in installation and use and their lightweight nature and corrosion resistance make them an attractive choice for many applications.
Public and commercial facilities are increasingly using air ducts due to the growing installation of HVACs in public and commercial settings
The global market is expected to be driven by growth in commercial and public construction in the coming years. Large spaces, such as offices, hospitals, banquets, gyms, and large conference halls are equipped with air ducts to regulate ventilation and proper air conditioning across the room. In line with this, the growth in the number of commercial infrastructures on account of industrialisation is boosting the overall air duct market growth. Moreover, air ducts are also commonly found at airports, railway stations, and metro stations to circulate clean air in crowded spaces to avoid suffocation. Large-scale expenditure on urbanisation in major developing countries across the world and the development of public transportation are also expected to fuel the market growth in public facilities.
Industrial facilities are also anticipated to gain sizeable growth in the HVAC air ducts market in the coming years. Industrial processes can generate significant amounts of heat, requiring effective temperature control and ventilation to maintain a safe and comfortable working environment. Air duct systems distribute cooled or heated air throughout the facility to maintain the desired temperature.
The air duct market players are engaging in mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships to expand their product offerings, enter new markets, and leverage synergies
Lindab International, established in 1959 and headquartered in Båstad, Sweden, specializes in ventilation, air conditioning, roof and facade systems, as well as rainwater systems.

The demand for air ducts in the Asia Pacific region is influenced by several factors. Rapid urbanisation and the construction boom in Asia Pacific countries have led to an increased demand for HVAC systems in commercial buildings, residential complexes, industrial facilities, and infrastructures like airports and metros, which in turn, drive the demand for air ducts. There is also a growing emphasis on energy conservation and sustainability in the region. Many countries have implemented regulations and standards to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, which include the installation of efficient HVAC systems and, by extension, the use of advanced air duct systems that minimise energy loss.
The air duct market in Europe is anticipated to witness substantial growth in the foreseeable future. Europe has stringent regulations for energy efficiency in buildings, exemplified by directives like the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and the Ecodesign Directive. These regulations encourage the use of HVAC systems and air ducts that minimise energy loss, reduce carbon emissions, and improve the overall energy performance of buildings.
