Walk-in Refrigeration Market in the US 2014-2018: Estimations Reveal that Restaurant Industry Sales are to Reach US$683.4 Billion in 2014
M2 - Wed Mar 05, 11:13AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/crf6m9/walkin) has announced the addition of the "Walk-in Refrigeration Market in the US 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Walk-in Refrigeration market in the US to grow at a CAGR of 4.01 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing demand from supermarkets and restaurants. The Walk-in Refrigeration market in the US has also been witnessing the increasing use of green technology and renewable energy sources. However, the stringent regulations imposed by the US Environmental Protection Agency could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. Key vendors dominating this space are Bally Refrigerated Boxes Inc., Nor-Lake Inc., The Manitowoc Co. Ltd., and Thermo-Kool/Mid-South Industries Inc. Other vendors mentioned in the report are American Panel Corp., Arctic Industries Inc., Beverage-Air Corp., Dover Corp., Hoshizaki America Inc., Illinois Tool Works Inc., International Cold Storage Co. Inc., Lennox International Inc., True Manufacturing Co. Inc., and Turbo Air Inc. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The development of technologically advanced walk-in refrigerators is one of the major trends in the Walk-in Refrigeration market in the US. All refrigeration systems use refrigerants such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons or hydrofluorocarbons for cooling purposes. However, these refrigerants have a negative impact on the ozone layer and contribute to global warming. Hence, vendors are focusing on developing alternative refrigerants. For instance, some vendors are offering walk-in refrigerators that use natural refrigerants such as CO2, which does not have an adverse impact on the environment. Functional Devices Inc. has developed a plug-and-play evaporator fan controller, called EFC 4045T, for walk-in refrigerators, which significantly reduces energy costs. This technical advancement is expected to stimulate sales of walk-in refrigerators in the future.

The automobile industry is constantly evolving. Reasons such as improving lifestyle, growing population and urbanization, growing demand for fuel economy, and environmental concerns have triggered the automobile industry to mature in recent years. Vehicle engines are generally contaminated by three major contaminants-particles, water, and soft organics. Particulate or particles include road dust, engine debris, rust or any other hard particles. If not removed, they cause abrasion and also wear and tear of the engine walls. The presence of water can cause engine parts corrosion, deposition over fuel injectors, cavitation, and deterioration. Organic contaminants are sticky and slimy in nature and are more common in blended fuels. Exposure of today's sophisticated and complex engines to such contaminants may decrease the engine's life and cause permanent damage to it, resulting in high maintenance costs, low performance, excessive fuel consumption and high emission levels. As a result, filters have become a very critical part of automobiles due to their functionality and low cost.

Refrigerated Display Cases Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 3:04AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kblxck/refrigerated) has announced the addition of the "Refrigerated Display Cases Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Refrigerated display cases/cabinets (RDCs) are refrigeration equipments used for storing and displaying products (food and beverage items) which require chilled or frozen conditions. The global market for RDCs was valued at USD 8,780.3 million in 2012. It is further expected to grow at 9.6% CAGR during forecast period 2013 to 2019 and reach market size worth USD 16,283.4 million by 2019. Factors such as expanding retail (food retail) store network, rise in consumer dispensable income, and changing consumer lifestyle, are expected to help support market growth during the forecast period. Demand from small to medium sized stores, which often have limited investment power and floor space, is expected to support the market growth of plug-in RDCs as compared to remote systems. For same reasons, vertical RDCs too are expected to see higher demand as against horizontal or other types. Advantages such as flexibility to move them as per store floor-plan and low installation time are seen as key attributes to support demand for plug-in RDCs. In contrast, features such as more display space per unit area of floor makes vertical RDCs preferred by store operators. These are also suited for cold storage items (non sub-zero), which see higher volume sales and turn-around (fast moving items) as compared to items requiring sub-zero storage. Geographically, Asia-Pacific region is highly promising for RDCs growth as the region is witnessing encouraging economic growth. Commercial sector, especially retail and HoReCa (hotels, restaurants, and catering) industry is fast expanding, resulting in increased demand for cold merchandisers. North America and Europe are seeing high competition as these regions are saturated with regional brands.

Refrigerated Display Cases Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 3:04AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kblxck/refrigerated) has announced the addition of the "Refrigerated Display Cases Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Refrigerated display cases/cabinets (RDCs) are refrigeration equipments used for storing and displaying products (food and beverage items) which require chilled or frozen conditions. The global market for RDCs was valued at USD 8,780.3 million in 2012. It is further expected to grow at 9.6% CAGR during forecast period 2013 to 2019 and reach market size worth USD 16,283.4 million by 2019. Factors such as expanding retail (food retail) store network, rise in consumer dispensable income, and changing consumer lifestyle, are expected to help support market growth during the forecast period. Demand from small to medium sized stores, which often have limited investment power and floor space, is expected to support the market growth of plug-in RDCs as compared to remote systems. For same reasons, vertical RDCs too are expected to see higher demand as against horizontal or other types. Advantages such as flexibility to move them as per store floor-plan and low installation time are seen as key attributes to support demand for plug-in RDCs. In contrast, features such as more display space per unit area of floor makes vertical RDCs preferred by store operators. These are also suited for cold storage items (non sub-zero), which see higher volume sales and turn-around (fast moving items) as compared to items requiring sub-zero storage. Geographically, Asia-Pacific region is highly promising for RDCs growth as the region is witnessing encouraging economic growth. Commercial sector, especially retail and HoReCa (hotels, restaurants, and catering) industry is fast expanding, resulting in increased demand for cold merchandisers. North America and Europe are seeing high competition as these regions are saturated with regional brands.

The global market has grown slowly but steadily during the last few years and a similar trend is expected to continue in the near future. The market was worth $7,656.5 million in 2012, and by 2018 it is projected to be $11,495.3 million. This market is growing with a CAGR of 7.2% from 2013 to 2018. Leading companies are focusing on launching new products for expansion of the business in local as well as foreign markets. Acquisition is the most preferred growth strategy after new products launch. The global market is driven by many factors such as growing population and increase in demand and consumption of processed food, new technological innovations, and government support in developing countries.
