Abstract
This all new report from Specialists in Business Information, Heat Exchangers
& Steam Condensers, and Power Boilers in the U.S., focuses on the effects of
skyrocketing energy costs which have forced industrial manufacturers to make
re-evaluate and establish new money and resource saving measures, dramatically
affecting the demand for newer, more efficient heat exchangers, steam
condensers and power boilers. In 2005, the heat exchangers & steam condensers
and power boiler market grew by an estimated 2.4%.
The rising energy costs didn' t just lead to the introduction of new highly
efficient products, but also led to growth in the aftermarket. Manufacturers
such as Tranter PHE started offering cleaning and refurbishing services, which
help increase the efficiency of products existing in the end user' s
manufacturing facilities. In the boilers market new advanced control systems
were launched to make it easier for the operator to identify, track, and
control various aspects of the boiler and thus help optimize boiler
performance.
The year was marked by a number of strategic alliances. In 2005, most of the
companies acquired were those specializing in industrial heat exchangers &
steam condensers for the oil and natural gas industry, as the worldwide demand
for these products continued to grow at brisk rate. Also, top manufacturers,
including Graham Corporation and Chart Industries, bagged a number of export
orders in the natural gas, and petrochemical market.
This report includes market size and projections through 2010, marketing
trends, marketing dynamics, competitive profiles of top marketers, and
end-user analysis of heat exchangers & steam condensers, and power boilers.
