North American Pump Market On the Rise: Infrastructure and Megaproject Investments Drive Growth - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "2025 North American Pump Equipment: OEM and Rental Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The North American pump equipment market is experiencing moderate yet strategically important growth, driven by infrastructure upgrades, megaproject investments, and increasing digitalization across industries. Both pump equipment rentals and OEM pump manufacturing are benefitting from rising demand in municipal, industrial, energy, and construction applications.

The combined market is in a mature but upward phase, with the pump rental segment forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4% through 2031. This reflects consistent demand for flexible and cost-effective pumping solutions, particularly in municipal water management, industrial facilities, and construction projects.

Infrastructure investment remains a key driver. Wastewater and stormwater system upgrades, supported by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, continue to boost demand for rental and OEM pumps. At the same time, the expansion of semiconductor fabrication plants, large-scale data centers, and clean energy projects is accelerating adoption of high-performance pump systems. These megaprojects require rapid deployment and adaptable solutions, creating strong opportunities for pump rental providers.

The oil & gas and mining sectors are also fueling demand. Rising shale production in the Permian Basin and elevated energy prices are driving purchases of high-pressure pumps and advanced fluid handling systems. Meanwhile, the mining industry's expansion into critical materials - supported by strong commodity prices - is sustaining demand for dewatering and slurry pumps.

Despite these growth opportunities, the market faces challenges. A shortage of skilled pump technicians is limiting service capacity, while slowing commercial construction is reducing equipment demand in warehouse, retail, and manufacturing projects. Price competition, especially from low-cost Asian imports, remains intense, though recent tariffs have helped U.S. manufacturers regain competitiveness.

Technology trends are reshaping the industry. Digitalization, IoT-enabled monitoring, and predictive maintenance are becoming standard in OEM pump manufacturing. Energy efficiency is also a priority, with adoption of IE5 motors, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and smart control systems helping customers cut costs while meeting ESG and sustainability goals.

Key players in the pump rental market include United Rentals, Rain for Rent, and Sunbelt Rentals. In the OEM pump manufacturing segment, leaders include Flowserve Corporation, Gorman-Rupp, Xylem, Sulzer Ltd., ITT Gould Pumps, KSB, Wilo, Grundfos, EBARA International, and Pentair.
