Some of key players dominating the Pneumatic Tube System market include, Swisslog Holding (Switzerland), Aerocom Systems (Germany), Quirepace (UK), Pevco (US), Eagle Pneumatic (US), Telecom Bedrijfscommunicatie (Netherlands), Kelly Systems (US), Siebtechnik (Germany), Airlink International (US), Hamilton Security (US), Hanazeder Electronic (Austria), Hanter Ingenjörsteknik (Sweden), Colombo Pneumatic Tube Systems (US), Oppent (Italy), Air-Log (Germany), S&S Engineering (Japan), Zip Pneumatics (US), Thalmayr (Austria), and Lamson Group (US).

Pneumatic Tube Systems (PTS) are generally used to transport small payloads with a weight typically up to about 5kg. Items to be transported are placed within a carrier and then moved within a tube using air pressure and suction. This system requires reliable delivery methods, robust and complex installations. The installation of a Pneumatic Tube System is a specialist trade combining elements of construction, plumbing, electrical and data network installation. Pneumatic Tube Systems used in hospitals are reliable, powerful and efficient way of transport options for physical objects of any kind. For example, they transport blood units, tissue samples, urine specimens, COVID-19 samples, injections or medications. The use of pneumatic tubes in hospitals saves valuable time and human resources.

Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a substantial rate in coming years due to high demand of Pneumatic Tube System (PTS) in the area of manufacturing and healthcare sector. Major Key players are investing huge amounts of funds in the R&D of this technology especially in this region. Asia Pacific is considered to be the future manufacturing hub for industrial products. China to be the epic center for manufacturing, huge potential is predicted for Pneumatic Tube System market in recent years. Low cost of production and high demand is expected to flourish the Pneumatic Tube System market.
