Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems Market – Overview
Variable air volume or VAV system is an important type of heating, ventilating, and/or air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. This system, unlike the constant air volume counterpart, supplies a variable airflow at constant temperatures. The main advantage of variable air volume (VAV) systems is that they offer more precise temperature control, consumer lower energy, cut down the wear and tear of the compressor, and have lower fan noise. It also provides passive dehumidification. Such host of benefits is naturally helping to increase the popularity of the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market.
Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems Market – Notable Developments
Some of the notable developments in the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market are listed below:
-
In February 2017, Ingersoll Rand, a prominent name in the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market, announced that the company has acquired Thermocold Costruzioni SRL, a key manufacturer and distributor of HVAC systems, solutions, and services.
-
In March 2019, Trox GmbH announced that the company has agreed to sign a joint venture agreement with an Egyptian air conditioning supplier and manufacturer – Tiba El Manzalawi Group. With this agreement, Trox is aiming to serve the growing Egyptian market as well as gain entry in the other promising markets in the Middle East and Africa.
-

Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems Market – Drivers and Restraints
There are several factors that are positively influencing the growth of the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market. The primary driving factor for the growth of the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market is due to its increasing demand in the commercial constructions and buildings sector. The growth of the variable air volume (VAV) systems market is also driven by increasing applications of variable air volume (VAV) systems across different end use sectors such as retail, office, hospitality, and warehouse among others. Due to its host of benefits such as low power consumption, lesser fan noise, and enhanced precision among others, it has become increasingly popular as compared to the traditional HVAC systems. This has thus helped in driving the overall development of the global variable air volume (VAV) systems market.
Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems Market – Geographical Outlook
The global variable air volume (VAV) systems market is mainly divide into five key geographical regions like North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. Of these, the market has been traditionally dominated by North America due to increasing applications of variable air volume (VAV) systems across a wide range of industries including industrial to commercial buildings. However, the Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific regions are now showing high rate of growth in adopting these variable air volume (VAV) systems. Nations such as UAE, Egypt, China, and India have emerged as highly profitable construction and industrial installations. This trend is expected to continue over the course of the given forecast period.
