The refrigeration oil market size is projected to reach USD 1.4 billion by 2024 from USD 1.1 billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 4.7% between 2019 and 2024. The increasing demand for refrigerators & freezers from the food and pharmaceutical industries to preserve packaged food items and drugs is one of the major factors to drive the demand for the refrigeration oil market. Stringent regulations to limit the use of fluorocarbon refrigerants is restraining the growth of the refrigeration oil market.
On the other hand, increasing demand for consumer appliances drives the demand for refrigeration oil. The players in the refrigeration oil market are mainly concentrating on expansions, new product launches, and partnership & agreements to meet the growing demand in various applications. New product launches help companies strengthen their product portfolio and meet the specific requirements of customers.
