Crane and Hoist Market by Mobile Cranes (Lattice & Telescopic Boom, Crawler, Rough Terrain, All-Terrain, Truck Loader), Fixed Cranes (Industrial, Tower, Ship-to-Shore), Operation (Hydraulic, Electric), Hoist, Industry and Region - Global Forecast to 2028

The crane and hoist market is expected to grow from USD 31.5 billion in 2023 to USD 37.1 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 3.3% during the forecast period. Sustainable demand from construction industry and expanding mining industry driving the crane ad hoist market.

“Mobile crane segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period”

The mobile crane segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Mobile cranes offer versatility in terms of mobility and adaptability to various job sites. They can be easily transported and set up, making them suitable for different construction projects and industries. Their ability to swiftly move and set up at different locations contributes to increased efficiency in operations. Compared to fixed cranes, mobile cranes have faster setup times. This rapid deployment is advantageous, particularly in time-sensitive projects or situations where frequent relocation is necessary.

“Hybrid operation segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period”

Hybrid operation segment is expected grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Hybrid-operated cranes utilize both electrical supply and diesel generators for power. Some incorporate a large battery energy storage system (ESS) to store electricity. Through regenerative power, energy generated during load descent charges the ESS, providing extra power for lifting tasks. Their primary aim is to cut fuel usage and operational costs. Rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes often use a steady-speed diesel generator for hoisting, but implementing a hybrid power system reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. As battery technology advances and environmental concerns grow, hybrid cranes are expected to gain popularity. Crane manufacturers have partnered to advance hybrid crane development.

“Construction industry is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period”

The construction industry is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rising demand for infrastructure development, encompassing roads, bridges, railways, airports, and other large-scale projects, calls for the use of robust lifting equipment such as cranes. These cranes are crucial for lifting heavy materials, assembling structures, and aiding in construction processes. Additionally, rapid urbanization worldwide is spurring the construction of residential and commercial buildings to accommodate the growing population. Moreover, the industrial expansion and economic growth in emerging nations like India, China, Brazil, the UAE, and others are significant drivers behind the increased demand for infrastructure.

“Crane and Hoist market in Asia Pacific region to register highest CAGR between 2023 and 2028”

The crane and hoist market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The Asia-Pacific region emerges as a swiftly growing market offering ample prospects for the construction industry, driven by a burgeoning population. Rapid expansion within the construction and material handling sectors has notably boosted the crane market in countries like India, China, and Australia. Factors such as heightened awareness regarding automation and the emphasis placed by key economies like China and Japan on construction and material handling industries contribute significantly to Asia-Pacific's dominant market share. Moreover, the rapid growth of automotive, construction, aerospace, and defense industries in emerging economies like China and India further supports the crane market's growth across the Asia-Pacific region.
