Aerospace Oxygen System Market Report 2026

The aerospace oxygen system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.71 billion in 2025 to $6.06 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early adoption of emergency oxygen supply systems to ensure passenger safety during cabin depressurization, rising demand for oxygen storage tanks and pressure regulators in commercial aircraft, development of oxygen distribution piping and breathing masks to support standardized life support systems, increased requirement for high-altitude operational oxygen solutions in military aviation, initial integration of continuous oxygen monitoring equipment to enhance in-flight safety compliance.

The aerospace oxygen system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.72 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing adoption of advanced lightweight oxygen system components to reduce aircraft weight, increasing demand for more efficient oxygen delivery technologies in next-generation aircraft, expansion of space missions requiring enhanced life support and oxygen management capabilities, rising focus on improved regulatory standards for oxygen safety and system reliability, technological advancements enabling smarter and more automated oxygen monitoring and control systems. Major trends in the forecast period include advanced oxygen monitoring systems, miniaturization of oxygen delivery components, integration of onboard oxygen generation systems, development of lightweight oxygen storage solutions, expansion of high-altitude life support technologies.

The rise in air traffic is expected to drive the growth of the aerospace oxygen system market in the coming years. Air traffic encompasses the movement of aircraft through airspace, including take-off, landing, and navigation of planes, helicopters, and other aerial vehicles. Aerospace oxygen systems are essential for high-altitude flights and military missions, enabling pilots, crew members, and specialist operators to function safely and efficiently in environments where oxygen levels are insufficient for normal breathing. For example, in December 2025, Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based government agency, reported that in 2023, the number of air passengers in the EU increased by 19.3% compared to 2022, totaling 973 million travelers. Among EU airports, Paris Charles de Gaulle handled the highest number of passengers (67 million), followed by Amsterdam Schiphol with 62 million. Therefore, the growing air traffic is fueling the expansion of the aerospace oxygen system market.

Key companies in the aerospace oxygen system market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as portable oxygen concentrators, to improve efficiency and safety in critical medical and defense applications. Portable oxygen concentrators are compact devices that extract oxygen from ambient air, remove nitrogen, and deliver concentrated oxygen to users, providing a continuous and reliable supply without heavy cylinders while enhancing mobility, safety, and emergency response in medical, aerospace, and battlefield environments. For instance, in April 2025, the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), a UK-based research institute, partnered with Defence Medical Services (DMS), a UK-based organization, to create an advanced portable oxygen delivery system designed to improve casualty survival by generating oxygen on demand at the point of injury. The 5 kg system overcomes the limitations of traditional pressurized cylinders by extracting oxygen directly from ambient air, incorporating a rebreather element to recycle exhaled breath, and providing ventilation support for patients unable to breathe independently, thereby enhancing efficiency and safety in battlefield and emergency medical care.

In September 2023, O2 Aero Acquisitions LLC, a US-based aerospace firm, acquired Fluid Power Inc. for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, O2 Aero aims to diversify its oxygen systems portfolio for both military and civil aviation, while increasing manufacturing capacity and strengthening engineering expertise. Fluid Power Inc., based in the US, specializes in the production of aviation oxygen systems.
