Thailand Is Expected To Lead The ASEAN Construction Equipment Rental Market

  • Thailand's construction expenditure has evolved along with the country's economy. Following the acceleration of massive infrastructure spending over the past three years, public investment has helped Thailand's construction industry expand.
  • The substantial infrastructural investment made by the Thai government is expected to increase the demand for off-road vehicles across the country. The EEC is a USD49.9 billion project that will be a part of Thailand's 4.0 initiative, which aims to make the nation a high-value-added economic and logistics powerhouse. The EEC, which encompasses the three provinces of Chachoengsao, Chonburi, and Rayong in southeast Thailand, aims to transform this area into a significant economic hub and draw international investment, which will increase demand for construction equipment.
  • The government has developed a road map (Remap 2036) to encourage the expansion of renewable energy. Under Remap, solar power is anticipated to reach 17GW in 2036, thanks to reduced solar panel prices in Thailand. Thailand's government investment in the renewable energy sector supports demand in the country's construction equipment market.
  • Given the increasing government spending on constructing roads, motorways, metros, and airports, the need for crawler excavators in Thailand is anticipated to rise.
  • Since it is generally safer to operate machinery from a distance, remote operation of construction equipment is predicted to increase demand for construction equipment used in mining. All-terrain cranes and excavators will likely become more popular due to the government's increased investment in renewable energy plans. This is because they are necessary for developing solar, wind, and hydroelectric power facilities. Mini excavators are becoming more and more popular in Thailand. The shortage of inexpensive labor and the requirement for inner-city development projects have increased the demand for small excavators in the construction equipment sector.
