COVID-19 has Severely Affected Construction and Manufacturing Sectors by Limiting Investments


With the sudden surge in the growth of the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide, manufacturing and industrial sectors have been hit tremendously, thus impeding the global telescopic handler market in the year 2020. Construction and industrial manufacturers from developed economies have invested several billion in the infrastructural projects across the developing economies. The sudden lockdown and halt in construction projects led to a loss of investors around the world.


Investments in natural gas pipeline projects across the Asian and Middle Eastern countries were severely affected. Therefore, it has further impacted the production and consumption rate in the global market. Moreover, due to the sudden emergence of the pandemic, purchasing of this equipment has reduced, wherein customers are opting for renting these high-priced machines for the time being. The impact of the lockdown, demand destruction, supply and value chain disruption, and change in customer purchasing behavior are some of the basic reasons that affected the global telescopic handler market in the pandemic period.
