콜드체인 물류 장비 시장 : 기회, 성장 요인, 업계 동향 분석 및 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Cold Chain Logistics Equipment Market was valued at USD 89.5 Billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.4% to reach USD 179.8 Billion by 2034.

Market growth is fueled by the increasing global demand for temperature-sensitive products such as pharmaceuticals, biologics, vaccines, fresh produce, seafood, dairy, and frozen foods. The pharmaceutical industry relies heavily on ultra-low-temperature storage and transport systems to preserve biologics and mRNA-based therapies, creating strong demand for advanced refrigerated logistics equipment. Similarly, the rising consumption of fresh and organic food products has prompted investments in refrigerated storage and transportation systems to ensure product safety and quality throughout the supply chain. With globalization extending the reach of perishable goods across continents, logistics providers are increasingly adopting temperature-controlled solutions to preserve product integrity and reduce spoilage. Growing awareness about food safety and sustainability is also accelerating the transition toward advanced cold chain systems designed to maintain consistent temperature conditions from production to final delivery.

In 2024, the reefer containers and transport equipment segment generated USD 39 Billion. These refrigerated containers are vital for international logistics, offering efficient temperature control during multimodal transportation spanning sea, rail, and road, ensuring perishable goods maintain quality during long-distance shipment. Their adaptability and reliability make them indispensable for global cold chain operations.

The food & beverage sector held a 66% share in 2024, driven by rising consumer preference for fresh, natural, and ready-to-eat products. The need for precise temperature regulation to prevent spoilage and contamination has led producers, retailers, and distributors to invest heavily in advanced refrigeration infrastructure, including cold storage units, temperature-sensing systems, and refrigerated transport vehicles. These investments support seamless product movement from farms to retail outlets while maintaining high safety and freshness standards.

U.S. Cold Chain Logistics Equipment Market held 78.2% share and generated USD 24.9 Billion in 2024. The country's well-established infrastructure, strict regulatory environment, and strong demand for temperature-sensitive goods make it a major global hub for cold chain operations. Continuous investments in smart monitoring technologies, cold storage expansion, and efficient transportation systems are further strengthening the country's dominance. The growth is also supported by the thriving e-commerce, food delivery, and pharmaceutical industries, which rely heavily on reliable cold chain systems.

Key players in the Global Cold Chain Logistics Equipment Market include Carrier Transicold (United Technologies), Emerson Electric (Copeland), Johnson Controls, Rivacold, Danfoss, ORBCOMM, DANA Steel, Daikin Industries, Thermo King (Trane Technologies), Bureida Trading & Refrigeration, TSSC, Thermodynamics, China International Marine Containers, Zanotti Spa, Zhengzhou Kaixue Cold Chain, and Coldstores Group of Saudi Arabia (CGS). Companies in the Cold Chain Logistics Equipment Market are adopting multiple strategies to strengthen their global presence and maintain a competitive advantage. Leading manufacturers are investing in advanced refrigeration technologies, such as energy-efficient compressors, smart sensors, and real-time monitoring systems, to improve temperature control and reduce energy consumption. Strategic collaborations and partnerships with logistics providers and food producers are expanding distribution networks and optimizing supply chains. Continuous R&D efforts are focused on developing eco-friendly refrigerants and sustainable designs to meet global environmental standards.
