South Africa Metering Pumps Market Synopsis

The South Africa metering pumps market has been experiencing growth, fueled by the country’s industrial, mining, chemical, and increasingly critical water and wastewater sectors. Anchored by the operations of “South African Synthetic Oil Limited (SASOL)”, the domestic chemicals industry contributed by local operations, has made metering pumps indispensable in applications ranging from neutralization and polymerization to syngas production and emissions control. Similarly, the mining sector, which accounted South Africa’s GDP and generated high exports in 2023, has been another major consumer of metering pumps. These are used for dosing flotation reagents, handling abrasive slurries, and treating wastewater across beneficiation facilities. Further, South Africa’s worsening water crisis has added a new urgency to investments in advanced metering pumps. The need for precision dosing technologies in water treatment plants has become critical. Metering pumps are vital for ensuring accurate chemical dosing, crucial for purification, pH correction, and pathogen removal.

According to 6Wresearch, the South Africa metering pumps market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.7% in revenue and 9.9% in volume from 2025 to 2031, driven by industrial modernization, water sector reforms, and the rising need for efficient, sustainable, and digitally integrated dosing systems. The market has further supported by critical investments outlined in the “National Water and Sanitation Master Plan 2019” and the “National Development Plan 2030” annually through 2050.

Also, key infrastructure projects accelerating the demand include the Lesotho Highlands Phase Two Project (completion 2029), which would deliver cubic meters of water annually to the Vaal Dam; the UNDP Integrated Transboundary River Basin Management Project (completion 2028), aimed at balancing water allocation across the Limpopo Basin; and Cape Town’s New Water Programme (NWP), with an investment in the Faure New Water Scheme and Paarden Eiland desalination plant (completion 2030), designed to supply purified water daily, all of which depend on advanced metering pumps for precise chemical dosing and water quality control.

Market Segmentation By  Type

In 2031, diaphragm metering pumps would dominate in terms of both revenue size and volume size in South Africa’s metering pumps market, primarily due to their versatility, leak-free operation, and compatibility with a wide range of corrosive and hazardous fluids. These pumps are increasingly preferred in applications requiring chemical resistance and high dosing accuracy, such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage processing, and green hydrogen production.

During 2025-2031, peristaltic metering pumps would witness highest revenue and volume growth rate owing to the growing adoption of advanced water treatment methods, including sludge handling and chemical dosing in decentralized and mobile treatment units, favors peristaltic technology due to its ability to handle shear-sensitive and corrosive fluids. As industries diversify their processing needs and embrace automation and modular solutions, peristaltic pumps are increasingly chosen for their adaptability, reliability, and ease of integration into modern fluid handling systems.

Market Segmentation By Application

In 2031, water and wastewater treatment would dominate the South Africa’s metering pumps market by revenue size and also expect to witness highest revenue growth rate during 2025-2031, primarily driven by the country’s escalating water crisis. With an investment required by 2030 to upgrade and expand water infrastructure, there is a pressing need for efficient, reliable, and precise water treatment solutions. Furthermore, growing regulatory pressures for environmental compliance and the adoption of sustainable practices by municipalities and industries are further boosting demand.
