1. What Is the Valve Market?
The Valve Market comprises devices that control the flow, pressure, and direction of fluids in piping systems. The market includes ball, gate, globe, butterfly, check, and plug valves in varied materials, sizes, and actuation types. Valves are used by oil and gas, water, chemical, power, and construction operators regulating and isolating flow. The market covers industrial valves and excludes pumps, fittings, and instrumentation.

4. Key Market Opportunity
A major opportunity in the Valve Market is smart connected valves with embedded diagnostics for the digitally managed process operations operators are building. Process operators increasingly want visibility into valve health and performance, yet most valves remain passive mechanical devices, leaving these critical, numerous components outside the monitoring that digital operations increasingly expect. Maturing integrated position and condition sensing, embedded diagnostics, and connectivity make smart, self-reporting valves practical for the digitally managed process operations that expect data and predictive insight from all assets. Suppliers offering smart connected valves can win demand from digitizing process operators and earn recurring revenue through diagnostics and predictive-maintenance services across the vast valve populations critical operations depend upon.
