Electrical Enclosure Market Report 2025

The electrical enclosure market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $8.21 billion in 2024 to $8.89 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. During the historic period, growth was driven by increasing industrial modernization efforts, expansion of renewable energy projects, greater adoption of smart grid technologies, growth in infrastructure development, and rising demand for energy-efficient systems.

The electrical enclosure market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.08 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. In the forecast period, growth is expected to be driven by rising demand for safety and protection in electrical systems, increased deployment in harsh environmental conditions, growing use of renewable energy sources, and greater adoption of smart grids. Key trends during this period include advancements in smart monitoring capabilities, development of advanced thermal management solutions, innovation in modular enclosure systems, integration of IoT and AI technologies, and progress in lightweight and durable materials.

The expansion of power infrastructure is expected to drive growth in the electrical enclosure market. Power infrastructure development includes the planning, construction, and upgrading of systems that generate, transmit, and distribute electricity. Rising demand for reliable and uninterrupted electricity, fueled by urbanization and industrial growth, is increasing the need for robust electrical systems. Electrical enclosures support these developments by providing secure, durable housings for electrical components, protecting equipment from environmental hazards such as dust, moisture, and corrosion, and enhancing system safety and longevity. For example, the World Resources Institute reported in February 2025 that solar power installations reached 39.6 GW in 2024, up from 27.4 GW in 2023. Growing power infrastructure projects are thus driving demand for electrical enclosures.

Companies in the electrical enclosure market are focusing on innovative stainless-steel solutions to improve durability, corrosion resistance, and safety. Stainless-steel enclosures protect electrical components from harsh environmental conditions, extending equipment life. In January 2023, UK-based nVent Electric plc launched the nVent Hoffman extreme environments portfolio, featuring stainless steel and polymer enclosures with IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings. These enclosures include a flangeless front for easier cleaning and a new latch system for improved sealing and faster access, offering secure protection for critical equipment in industries such as food and beverage, chemicals, and water and wastewater.

In June 2025, ABB Ltd., a Switzerland-based electrification and automation company, acquired Bel Products Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition strengthens ABB’s North American market presence, expands its product portfolio, and leverages Bel’s manufacturing and supply chain capabilities to meet growing customer demand. Bel Products Inc., based in Canada, specializes in manufacturing electrical enclosures.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid rise in U.S. tariffs and the subsequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are having a major impact on the electrical and electronics sector, with semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals (essential for batteries and motors) subject to steep duties. Consumer electronics brands face profit erosion, as competitive markets limit their ability to pass costs to buyers. Industrial electronics manufacturers, meanwhile, grapple with delayed projects due to shortages of tariff-impacted components like printed circuit boards. Companies are responding by relocating assembly to tariff-exempt countries, increasing inventory buffers, and redesigning products to reduce dependency on restricted materials.

An electrical enclosure is a sturdy protective case designed to house electrical circuits, components, and wiring. It safeguards these systems from environmental hazards such as dust, moisture, corrosion, and mechanical impact, ensuring reliable operation. Additionally, it enhances user safety by preventing accidental contact with live electrical parts and supports efficient functioning across residential, commercial, and industrial settings.

The main categories of electrical enclosures include metal, plastic, composite, fiberglass, and custom enclosures. Metal enclosures are protective housings made from materials such as steel, aluminum, stainless steel, polycarbonate, and ABS, offering durability, heat dissipation, and protection against dust and moisture. These enclosures often feature ingress protection (IP) ratings, compliance with National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standards, explosion-proof designs, weatherproofing, and vandal-resistant construction. They serve a wide range of end users across various industries.
