A Clear View of the Local Market Landscape
Thailand’s industrial gases market reached $1.3 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 7% over the past five years. Oxygen was the largest segment with a revenue share of 32.98% in 2023. Thailand imported industrial gases valued at approximately $520 million in 2024, with China, Japan, and South Korea accounting for nearly 65% of total imports — presenting strong opportunities for cost-effective oxygen generation.
Demand Trends Within the Country
-
Steel Mill Oxygen Supply
Thailand relies on EAF steelmaking with no upstream iron production —VPSA oxygen cuts liquid oxygen procurement costs by over 50%. -
Cement Decarbonization
Thailand’s cement industry is transforming into a low-carbon production base, driving demand for oxygen-enriched combustion and alternative fuel systems. -
Petrochemical & Refining
Increased demand for nitrogen and hydrogen in petrochemical refining and chemical production fuels the need for high-purity gas separation. -
Hydrogen Economy Buildout
Thailand has set ambitious climate goals to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, with hydrogen and ammonia officially designated as “fuel oils” under the Fuel Oil Control Act in October 2025.
