The report names Chemours among key players in a low-GWP refrigerants market forecast to grow from USD 8.17 billion in 2026 to USD 13.06 billion by 2031 at a 9.8% CAGR. As a refrigerant manufacturer it could benefit from the regulatory phase-down of high-GWP gases, but the article gives no company-specific figures, orders or guidance, so near-term price impact is minimal.

Risk Factors
  • ▼ The report notes high equipment conversion and replacement costs and safety/handling requirements for flammable hydrocarbons as industry restraints

Daikin is listed as a key player in a market forecast to reach USD 13.06 billion by 2031, with Asia Pacific (42.2% of the 2026 market) the largest and fastest-growing region — Daikin's home region. The report contains no company-specific financials, so the effect on the share price in coming days is negligible.

Risk Factors
  • ▼ Reported restraints include high conversion costs and compatibility challenges with existing equipment
