The construction equipment market is expected to grow from US$ 126,062.8 million in 2022 to US$ 223,451.1 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.0% from 2022 to 2028.

Heavy-duty vehicles developed specifically to carry out construction duties, most commonly earthwork operations, are referred to as construction equipment. The proper use of suitable equipment helps to the project's economy, quality, safety, speed, and timeliness. It is not always desired or feasible for the contractor to possess all of the construction equipment needed for the project. Excavating, digging dirt, moving it over great distances, placement, compacting, levelling, dozing, grading, and hauling are among the main processes involved in the building of any construction project.

Various excavation duties, such as excavating and moving the ground, are carried out with earthmoving equipment. Earthmoving equipment are available in various shapes and sizes. They are mostly used for repairing, constructing, elevating, agricultural, and demolition purposes. Excavators are earth-moving machines with buckets, arms, rotating cabs, and moveable tracks. A backhoe, also known as a rear actor or back digger, is a kind of excavation equipment having a digging bucket attached to the end of a two-part articulated arm. Loader is a construction machine that moves or loads materials, including asphalt, demolition waste, dirt, snow, feed, gravel, logs, raw minerals, recycled material, rock, sand, and woodchips, into or onto another type of machinery.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Construction Equipment Market

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic hampered construction activities. As a result, construction equipment sales have decreased across the world. Infrastructure investments; residential, commercial, and industrial construction; underground and well construction; and institutional expenditure affect construction equipment manufacturers. The US, the UK, China, and India are among the countries that have been disproportionately affected. According to the International Construction Group, the delivery of over one-quarter of all projects (22.7%) was delayed by more than 250 days, and more than one-tenth of all projects (13.4%) were delayed by more than a year in 2020. However, projects of hospitals and other medical facilities, labs, and shipping and logistics infrastructure are in limited supply. Furthermore, several nations have begun to gradually resume activities various industries, including the construction industry. India and China have started industrial and commercial construction projects. In April 2021, industrial output climbed for the first time since January 2021, as countries began to implement new projects. Therefore, the demand for excavators, backhoe loaders, compactors, dozers, and other construction equipment surged.
