Despite the positive outlook for the market, certain factors hinder the market's growth, such as the pandemic like COVID-19, which has resulted in a decline in construction activity, thereby reducing the demand for excavators. Another factor hampering the market's growth is the high cost of ownership and maintenance of excavators, which acts as a barrier for small and medium-sized construction companies.
Growth Drivers
Growth in the rental market fuels the sales of excavators in the region
The growth in the rental market has had a significant impact on the sales of excavators in the Asia Pacific region. This is because the increasing demand for construction and infrastructure development projects, associated with the rising focus on renting heavy equipment instead of purchasing it outright, has led to an increase in the demand for excavators in the region.
The construction and infrastructure development projects require heavy machinery like excavators, which are often too expensive for small-scale contractors and construction companies to purchase. As a result, many of these companies are turning to rental options to meet their equipment needs.
Advancements in technology have also fueled the growth of the excavator rental market in Asia Pacific. Modern excavators come equipped with advanced features such as GPS tracking, telematics, and remote monitoring systems, which enable rental companies to optimize their management and provide better services to their customers. For example, rental companies are now able to track the location and usage of their excavators in real time, allowing them to allocate equipment more efficiently and reduce downtime. Owing to all these factors, the renting of construction equipment is fueling the sales of the excavator market.
