COVID-19 Impact on the Global Mass Transfer Equipment Market

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had an adverse effect on the development of the global mass transfer equipment market due to the implementation of a global lockdown, which led to the temporary closing of manufacturing facilities. The demand for mass transfer equipment from various end-use industries reduced massively amidst the pandemic period. The pandemic hampered operations in the industrial sector due to supply chain disruptions caused by import and export restrictions. In addition, companies faced labor scarcity and a lack of raw materials. However, the mass transfer equipment market is projected to experience growth in the post-pandemic period due to growing need for mass transfer solutions in the food packaging industry.
