Construction Equipment Market Key Growth Drivers
The primary drivers of this growth are governments placing more emphasis on improving existing infrastructure and the rapid urbanization that is occurring in many developing countries. Excavators, loaders, and dump trucks are among the construction equipment needed for this surge. Because of the increased infrastructure development activities around the world, which will require the use of earthmoving and material handling equipment, it is expected that the global construction equipment industry will grow at a much faster rate. Building in developing nations is encouraged by the government's increased investment in updating existing structures.
It is evident from recent events that the demand for construction equipment will increase in the years to come. For instance, In May 2024, Ferrovial, a global infrastructure company, announced that its construction subsidiary Webber had won nine new contracts totaling USD 1.2 billion. This construction contract includes water treatment plant expansion, bridge construction, and road maintenance in the United States and Canada. These international examples show how government-funded initiatives can increase demand for construction equipment on a global scale.

Construction Equipment Market Segmental Analysis
The global construction equipment market is segmented into equipment type, category, power output, propulsion type, drive type, application, and region.
- By equipment type, the earthmoving equipment led in 2024 due to the high demand coming from mining and heavy civil construction projects globally, particularly in rapidly urbanizing Asia-Pacific countries.
- By category, in 2024, human-operated machinery continued to dominate the market as regulatory restrictions and high upfront costs in developing nations continue to impede the widespread adoption of autonomous machines.
- By power output, the 101-200 HP category led in 2020 because it is the most versatile and appropriate for medium-sized commercial and heavy civil projects, especially in developing economies.
- By propulsion type, the ICE machinery remained widespread in 2024 because of the existing infrastructure and being more efficient in longer-duration operating, particularly in off-road construction situations.
- By drive type, hydraulic segment dominated the market in 2024 because they provide greater torque and are more effective for lifting and earthmoving tasks on construction sites.
- By application, due to higher government spending on roads, bridges, and smart city projects in Asia and North America, the infrastructure segment held the largest market share in 2024.
