China heavy duty truck lubricants market size is forecast to reach US$2.3 billion by 2026, China Heavy Duty Truck Lubricants Market

China heavy duty truck lubricants market size is forecast to reach US$2.3 billion by 2026, after growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during 2021-2026. Lubricants are used as transmission fluids and hydraulic fluid to reduce friction between two surfaces of the components of a vehicle. They are also used to control the vehicle's high temperature by absorbing the heat generated while the vehicle is running. Lubricants offer various properties such as lubricity, high boiling point, corrosive prevention, and thermal stability among others. The growing economic activities in China are boosting the market growth for heavy-duty truck lubricants. The growing manufacturing sector along with the rapid increase in sales of heavy trucks for good transportation is further driving the market for lubricants during the forecast period. However, growing environmental concerns and the high cost of lubricants are likely to hamper the market growth during the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting different industries; one of the few industries that were largely hit to some extent was the lubricants industry. The temporary shutdown of lubricant manufacturing facilities has negatively impacted the market. The downfall in the production of lubricants, disruption of logistical services, and lack of workforce impacted the market negatively during the covid-19 crises. Travel restrictions have reduced the supply of raw materials required for the manufacturing of China heavy-duty truck lubricants, which, in turn, has affected negatively the market growth during the pandemic.
