The industrial gases for plastic and rubber industry market provides essential gases such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and argon used in manufacturing, molding, cooling, and inerting processes. These gases enhance product quality, reduce oxidation, and improve process efficiency in applications such as injection molding, extrusion, and polymerization. Nitrogen is widely used for purging and blanketing, while CO2 finds use in foaming processes. With rising demand for high-performance plastics, lightweight composites, and sustainable manufacturing practices, industrial gases are becoming integral to optimizing production and meeting regulatory standards across plastic and rubber processing plants globally.

The market witnessed solid growth amid the global expansion of plastic component manufacturing for automotive, consumer electronics, and packaging. Nitrogen use increased in extrusion and cooling applications to reduce waste and improve surface finish. Gas-assisted injection molding (GAIM) gained traction due to its ability to produce complex parts with reduced cycle time. The push toward recyclability and lightweighting also drove demand for CO2-based foaming in insulation and cushioning products. Regional gas suppliers expanded on-site and pipeline supply solutions for plastic clusters, particularly in Southeast Asia and Central Europe, to meet rising demand for uninterrupted, high-purity gas supply.

The demand will grow for industrial gases in bioplastic and recycled polymer production as sustainability pressures mount. Advanced gas applications such as cryogenic deflashing and gas-phase polymerization will become more common in precision molding. Hydrogen and nitrogen will see greater use in rubber vulcanization and curing as manufacturers shift to cleaner production methods. AI-enabled gas dosing systems will optimize gas flow, minimize waste, and reduce emissions. As plastic recycling, 3D printing, and specialty rubber production rise, gas suppliers will offer customized blends and on-site generation technologies to meet evolving industrial needs efficiently.
