Global Valve and Actuator Market Report 2025
The global valves market expanded by an estimated 3.2% in 2024 to reach US$80 billion, while the small actuator market expanded by 2.2%.
We expect the global valves market to register an increase of 3.0% in 2025 and 3.1% in 2026. The downgrade is largely due to a weaker outlook for growth as a result of the impact of tariffs.

- We expect world GDP growth to expand by 2.8% in 2025 and 2.6% in 2026. The bigger downgrades have been to investment. Investment will be hit by higher interest rates, as well as the high degree of uncertainty that will remain even as the trade war de-escalates.
- Industrial production is expected to suffer more heavily than the wider economy. Activity did benefit in Q1 and early Q2 from front-loading of production ahead of major tariff announcements, but that has since started to unwind. Tariffs are expected to constrain industrial output directly.
- On a sector basis, investment-led and interest-sensitive sectors are likely to see some of the weakest growth given the extent to which uncertainty is curbing business investment. We expect activity in the construction sector to grow at the slowest pace since the global financial crisis, bar 2020.
- On a regional basis, the weakest regional growth is forecast in Europe. Growth in Middle East & Africa is forecast to grow at the strongest pace, both in 2025 and 2026 at 5.6% and 6.7%, respectively. Growth will be underpinned by the expansion of oil production as OPEC+ unwinds its cuts. Diversification efforts will also underpin growth. Valves demand in Asia Pacific was more resilient to the effects of tariffs in 2025.
