Asean Construction Equipment Rental Market - Growth, Trends, Covid-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2023 - 2028)
The ASEAN construction equipment rental market is poised to register a CAGR of over 7.00% over the forecast period (2020-2025).
Key HighlightsThe ASEAN region holds opportunities for growth for the rental market. With the prospects of large infrastructure projects and shifting labor dynamics, the rental market is expected to witness growth during the forecast period.
In the ASEAN countries, the construction sector is expected to grow at a rate of more than 6% over the forecast period. It is estimated that over the next five years, the combined value of all the construction products in the ASEAN region is about USD 2.9 trillion. Of this value, about USD 1.5 trillion is invested in the planning/pre-planning phase. In addition, the investments in infrastructure, both public and private, such as Indonesia National Medium-Term Development Plan (USD 460 billion), Vietnam Socio-Economic Development Plan (US$61.5 billion), and Philippine Development Plan "Build, Build, Build" (USD 71.8 billion) are expected to offer an opportunity for the sales of new construction equipment, as well as the rental industry.
The construction industry is highly dynamic and numerous things, such as overall economy, budgets, and global economic scenario influence the market. Volatility in these aspects affects the businesses of construction equipment OEMs, which in turn, leads to price fluctuations of new equipment. Thus, renting construction equipment in these scenarios prove to be the preferable and effective choices for the construction companies to reduce or minimize the impact of unexpected financial downturns that may arise.
Thailand Is Expected To Lead The ASEAN Construction Equipment Rental MarketThe ASEAN construction equipment rental market is anticipated to lead by Thailand followed by Vietnam and Indonesia. Thailand is the ASEAN’s largest rental market and holds more than 20.0% construction equipment rental market share. Vietnam, the Philippines, and Indonesia are witnessing significant infrastructure development activities, owing to which the demand for construction equipment is increasing.
Vietnam imports huge volumes of construction equipment of which nearly 95% of them are used machinery. The country’s government has passed a regulation banning the import of used machinery that is more than 10 years old, with effect from July 15th, 2019.
This move is expected to witness localization of production, with a few major construction equipment manufacturers expected to start their own production plants in the country. This, in turn, is expected to provide opportunities to some of the local rental companies to procure new units in the first few years. Subsequently, it is expected that the consumers would be able to rent a new fleet, that too locally. This factor is expected to help in the growth of the market.
Competitive LandscapeThe ASEAN construction equipment rental market is led by Sin Heng Heavy Machinery Limited, Aktio Co., Kanamoto Co. Ltd, Tat Hong Holdings Ltd, Nishio Rent All Co. Ltd, Rent (Thailand) Co. Ltd, Shanghai Pangyuan Machinery Rental Co. Ltd and among others.
The companies are venturing into the South East Asian countries by forming subsidiaries through joint ventures and collaborations. This factor has helped the companies expand their presence considerably, and also helped in increasing revenue on a year-on-year basis. For Instance, In November 2018, Kanamoto & JP Nelson, the Singapore based subsidiary of the parent Kanamoto Co. Ltd entered an agreement with Sinoboom to enter the Malaysian market with aerial work platforms.
