The automatic type of cooker also saves the food from getting burnt along with saving the energy. Many top chefs recommend pressure cookers as they preserve essential nutrients more than other methods of steaming and boiling. These factors are expected to positively influence growth of the gas and electric pressure cooker market.

Material Insights

Stainless steel segment held the largest market share of about 63.59% in 2018. Being a heavy duty material, stainless steel is most commonly used for manufacturing gas and electric pressure cooker. It reduces the chances of damage in the form of scratches, stains, and rust caused by constant overheating and cleaning. Moreover, it does not absorb excessive heat during cooking process and saves the food from burning. Such advantages of the material are anticipated to drive the growth of the segment in the near future.

Aluminum segment is anticipated to register the fastest CAGR of around 8.07% from 2019 to 2025 owing to the affordable prices of the product. Being a lighter material, aluminum is very convenient during transportation of goods and easy to carry while cooking. Also, aluminum is a very good conductor of heat, contributing to even and faster cooking of the food. The material is lightweight, which makes it ideal for industrial cooking as well. All these factors are projected to fuel the product demand and in turn drive the market.

Application Insights

Residential was the largest application segment and generated a revenue of around USD 4.46 billion in 2018. Electric and gas connections are easily available and they do not require external fittings for residential application. Residential areas often have single phase power connections suitable for the use of electric pressure cookers. This is one of the major factors driving product adoption in this application segment. Compact cooking spaces in urban residential often lack proper ventilation. Pressure cookers require a small amount of heat and they cause very low smoke emission. Awareness regarding these advantages are anticipated to bode well for the segment growth.

Commercial application is expected to expand at the fastest CAGR of around 8.36% from 2019 to 2025. Rising need for faster cooking in various commercial spaces such as multi cuisines restaurants and hotels is anticipated to propel the growth. Large sized cookers are widely used for cooking huge amount of food in a limited time. They require a very low amount of heat and energy, which in turn is poised to fuel the product adoption. Growing demand for electric pressure cookers to maintain temperature inside commercial areas is expected to further fuel the demand. Moreover, certain regulations and government standards regarding the use of gas connections for cooking are anticipated to propel the product demand.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific held the largest market share of more than 37.0% in 2018. Increasing population and number of households coupled with rapid development drives the regional market. Over 90% of global production and consumption of rice is concentrated in Asia Pacific, which is anticipated to drive the regional adoption of rapid cooking methods such as gas and electric pressure cookers. Rise in disposable income and adoption of innovative products is expected to fuel the market. Development of power infrastructure in countries such as China and India has resulted in increased demand for electric products.

Europe is expected to expand at the fastest CAGR of over 9.0% during the forecast period. Initiatives by the European Commission to promote the use of green and low emissive products has resulted in increased sales of pressure cookers. Moreover, the high purchasing power of consumers is also expected to results in the increased sales of electric and coated materials.
