MARKET SEGMENTATION

"Adoption of Automated Excavator"

End-use industries across the globe are demanding more fuel-efficient, technologically upgraded equipment for improvising the constructing activities. Adoption of upgraded excavator reduces the labor costs, tracking of work done in every stage of the process, reduction in operational costs. Also, it is being projected; there will be a heavy growth of the market during the forecast 2018 – 2026, owing to the growing residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

"Increasing investment for infrastructure development is supplementing the revenue growth of the Asia Pacific, whereas North America is estimated to have a significant growth"

Asia Pacific valued at US$ 17.32 Bn in 2018 and is anticipated to emerge dominant in the global excavators market over the forecast period. The growth witnessed in the region is expected to be driven by the increasing investments for infrastructure development and also the growing industrialization across the region. Construction of infrastructure and roads is anticipated to increase rapidly in developing countries such as China and India.

North America generated a revenue of US$ 9.62 Bn in 2018 and is expected to witness a substantial growth owing to increasing demand for new housing units. Currently, European countries are facing problems related to the environmental regulations that are being imposed by the government across the construction industry. Also, it is being observed that the manufacturers exporting machines to Europe have also to face these challenges. Therefore, it has resulted in the slowdown of the sales of the construction equipment in 2018 but is expected to increase moderately during the forecast period.
