The size of the global diaphragm pump market was worth USD 6.26 billion in 2023. The global market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.60% from 2024 to 2032 and be worth USD 9.38 billion by 2032 from USD 6.55 billion in 2024.
Diaphragm pumps are positive displacement pumps that employ the reciprocating action of the diaphragm to pump fluids. Diaphragm pumps are constructed composed of a rubber or other polymeric diaphragm that reciprocates and checks valves that govern the incoming and exiting fluid. Furthermore, the most significant component for diaphragm pump longevity is the selection of an appropriate diaphragm material based on the application. Structured diaphragms are utilized in numerous applications to extend the life of diaphragm pumps.
Diaphragm pumps are very versatile in terms of their application, they are used in various industries such as construction and chemical industries, due to their capacity to handle diverse types of fluids. Concrete, trash waste, food waste, stones, oil sludge, muck, clay, and industrial fluids can all be transferred with these pumps. They're also utilized in aircraft and vehicles, as well as in the pharmaceutical industry, to generate pressure for cleaning and spraying purposes.
Many compact diaphragm pumps have been developed as a result of technological breakthroughs, and their designs are quite simple. This has led to a rise in the use of diaphragm pumps in a variety of sectors, resulting in the Diaphragm Pump Market's consistent expansion over the forecast period.
Furthermore, a combination of 3D printing technology and computer modelling has led to cutting-edge advancements in pump design, maintenance, and replacement, which drives the global market for diaphragm pumps and gives the potential for market expansion in the future.
Furthermore, as the demand for oil and gas grows, the price of oil recovers and the number of onshore and offshore fields mature, exploration and production activities are projected to move to deeper offshore locations which results in an increase in offshore ultra-deepwater projects. As a result, the Diaphragm Pump Market is predicted to grow throughout the forecast period.
Chemicals, volatile solvents, viscous fluids, shear-sensitive meals, filth water, abrasive slurry, tiny particles, creams, gels, and oil are all handled by diaphragm pumps. Check valves are used in diaphragm pumps to preserve volumetric efficiency by limiting bidirectional fluid flow during suction and pumping. Diaphragm pumps are capable of handling a huge volume of tiny materials. The solution injected through a diaphragm metering pump, on the other hand, must be clean and free of particles. Particulate matter of a greater size can accumulate in the pump chamber or body, obstructing the movement of the diaphragms and preventing the pump from working.
Furthermore, solid particles can collect on ball valve seats, preventing the valves from re-seating properly, resulting in poor performance, a loss of efficiency and the capacity to accurately meter, and lastly, a loss of prime, which will cause the pump to stop working. Regular pump maintenance is necessitated by keeping the check valve clean. Peristaltic pumps, which perform well with high levels of particles in the fluid being pumped, may be preferred by some operators. During the forecast period, this could have a negative impact on the diaphragm pump market's growth.

In 2023, the air-operated segment held the largest proportion of the business. Compressed air is used to power diaphragm pumps which are air-operated, allowing them to move a wide range of fluids and sludge, including slurries and high-viscosity fluids. The air-operated segment is expected to increase rapidly in the near future, as it has a wide range of applications in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and oil & gas industries. The electrically driven segment is suited for applications that require minimum pulsation and smooth flow. Instead of compressed air, it is powered with electricity, For Ex: Using an electric motor.
The market is divided into two types of operations: single-acting and double-acting. The double-acting category dominates the market. Two diaphragms that reciprocate back and forth are used in these goods. One diaphragm pulls fluid into the chamber, while the other pulls liquid out of the discharge line.
The market is divided into Pharmaceuticals, Food and beverage, Wastewater and water, Chemicals and petrochemicals, and Others based on application. Oil and gas, as well as water and wastewater, are the two most common application areas. The oil and gas segment had the largest market share in terms of revenue. In the past, the water and wastewater category held a substantial proportion of the worldwide market, and it is expected to grow even more throughout the projection period. During the projection period, the chemical and petrochemical segment is expected to grow at a strong rate. The food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries are the ideal fit for these electric diaphragm pumps.
Over the estimated period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to dominate the market. The Asia Pacific Diaphragm Pump Market grew as a result of rising foreign direct investments and increasing urbanization. Furthermore, the rising demand for energy fuel to meet the growing demand from a large population could drive up demand in this industry.
Water and wastewater applications have seen an increase in demand in recent years in a number of countries in this region, including the United States and Canada. Furthermore, greater industrialization has come from rising population growth mixed with rapid economic development around the world, leading to increased investments in sustainable infrastructure projects such as dams, reservoirs, and pipelines, among other things. As a result, during the forecasting period, these variables are expected to generate profitable growth possibilities for organizations operating in the regional Diaphragm Pump Market. In 2021, the US market dominated the North American Diaphragm Pump Market by Country, and it would continue to do so until 2032.
The need for diaphragm pumps has risen in Europe due to high demand in nations such as Germany, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom. Due to considerable demand from the chemical, petrochemical, food, and beverage sectors, Europe ranks second in terms of income.
Furthermore, the Middle East and Africa require more modern water and wastewater treatment, which will increase the demand for diaphragm pumps in these regions. Due to a shortage of freshwater sources, this region has a vast number of water and wastewater treatment plants. The market is predicted to grow in response to increased freshwater demand as the world's population grows.
Companies playing a prominent role in the global diaphragm pump market include Dover Corporation, Flowserve Corporation, Graco Inc., Grundfos Holding A/S, Idex Corporation, Ingersoll-Rand Inc., Leak-Proof Pumps (I) Pvt. Ltd., LEWA GmbH, Seepex GmbH, SPX Flow Inc, and Others.
