“The Mexican fluid conveyance market size in terms of overall production (including export) was US$ 3.0 Billion in 2023 and is likely to grow at a dynamic CAGR of 5.3% in the long run to reach US$ 4.2 Billion by 2030.”
Market Dynamics
Introduction
Fluid conveyance systems comprise a diverse range of components essential for the transfer of fluids from one point to another. These crucial elements encompass hoses, tubes, connectors, fittings, couplings, adaptors, and other indispensable tools required for establishing seamless connections. Hoses, serving as the primary medium for fluid transfer, are fabricated from rubber, thermoplastics, or metals, selected based on the specific properties of the fluid and the intended application. The determination of hose length, material, and thickness is contingent upon the targeted application to achieve the requisite pressure levels. These hoses find application in hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, fuel delivery systems, beverage dispensing systems, water supply systems, and other industrial and commercial contexts.
Market Drivers
The shifting market conditions from China to Mexico, the Made-In-USA initiative, and Free Trade Agreements have established an advantageous landscape for fluid conveyance market in Mexico. The USMCA facilitates easier access to major markets, reduces tariffs, and promotes exports. Furthermore, the nation provides a proficient workforce at a comparatively lower cost than other industrialized nations. In addition to that, the market is anticipated to be influenced by the expansion or establishment of new manufacturing facilities in Mexico by global fluid conveyance manufacturers. For instance, ContiTech AG has committed an investment of $40 million to inaugurate a new factory in Mexico.
Market Challenges
There are many challenges that foreign companies face while entering or sustaining in the Mexican market. The major challenges include the country’s high crime rates, corruption, poor infrastructure, complicated tax laws, and slow permitting processes.
Recent Market JVs and Acquisitions:
A huge number of strategic alliances including M&As, JVs, etc. have been performed over the past few years:
- In May 2021, Imperial Auto Industries acquired a portion of Continental AG’s Industrial Molded Hose Assets to expand its global presence and customer base in Mexico.
- In February 2020, Manuli Rubber Industries SpA (MRI) acquired majority shares of RYCO Hydraulics Pty Ltd (RYCO) to provide an enhanced product range and service offering to customers of both companies.
