Based on product type, Seamless copper tubes segment held around 58.9% market share in 2022. Seamless copper tubes have historically dominated the market share due to their excellent properties, such as high strength, corrosion resistance, and a smooth, uniform surface. These tubes find extensive use in critical applications like refrigeration and air conditioning. Welded copper tubes, while contributing significantly to the market, face competition from seamless tubes due to their potentially lower quality, attributed to the welding process. However, welded tubes are favored in applications where cost is a primary concern. Capillary tubes play a crucial role in refrigeration and HVAC systems, offering precise control over refrigerant flow. Their market share is relatively smaller but essential in specific niches. The "others" category typically encompasses specialty copper tubes tailored for unique applications, such as medical equipment or high-performance heat exchangers.
