The e-commerce and 3PL market players are among the major adopters of organized warehousing spaces. For instance, the growing Indian e-commerce industry is propelling the number of warehouses and distribution centers across the country. The e-retailers are now looking forward to opening warehouses in tier I and tier II cities. Thus, the demand for automated overhead cranes is expected to increase across warehouses and distribution centers for lifting heavy equipment and material handling. Furthermore, the manufacturers of overhead cranes are focusing on designing technically advanced lifting equipment for developing smarter factories in high-end manufacturing industries.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Automated Overhead Cranes Market

The COVID-19 outbreak has affected the world severely and its impact is still being felt in several countries across the globe. Until the outbreak of COVID-19, the crane industry was witnessing considerable growth in many regions; however, the pandemic led to notable decline in the adoption of automated overhead cranes, including bridge cranes, gantry cranes, monorail cranes, and jib cranes. Owing to the containment measures such as business shutdown, lockdowns, and travel restrictions, the production and supply chain of automated overhead cranes was adversely impacted. As many countries strictly implemented containment measures to control the surging number of COVID-19 cases, the trading activities were majorly affected, which further impacted the manufacturing of automated overhead cranes from the supply side till 2020. However, over the last quarter of 2020, many trade operations have started picking pace and the market players have begun experiencing some growth in the demand for automated overhead cranes market.
