• Emerging Trends: There's a clear lean toward automation—around 35% of new sluice gate installations in 2023 were integrated with SCADA or IoT systems for remote monitoring and control.

• Regional Leadership: Asia-Pacific is setting the pace, thanks to massive investments in irrigation and hydroelectric projects—India alone commissioned over 300 new water regulation sites between 2020 and 2023.

• Competitive Landscape: While there are more than 20 major players globally, including Orbinox, VAG Group, and Jash Engineering, the top five players together control nearly 50% of the total market volume.

• Market Segmentation: In terms of type, rising stem sluice gates accounted for over 40% of installations worldwide in 2023, especially in environments that demand higher torque and better sealing capabilities.

• Recent Development: In late 2023, Orbinox announced the release of a corrosion-resistant composite sluice gate series, reducing weight by up to 35% compared to traditional cast iron gates, with zero compromise on strength.

COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The pandemic resulted in disruptions to supply chains, manufacturing operations, and retail businesses, leading to reduced consumer spending. There were delays in projects due to which the demand for sluice gates decreased. While the market may eventually recover as the situation improves, the immediate impact of COVID-19 was predominantly negative for the global market.
