Several key factors drive the growth of the industrial equipment market. Examples are growth in real estate and more involvement in the private sector. Residential and commercial infrastructure set-up in emerging economies also drives growth, as do <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/expertise\/industrieen\/hardware-store-market-research\/\" title=\"Marktonderzoek naar ijzerwarenwinkels en doe-het-zelfzaken\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9044\">improved economic conditions in a market<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Heavy Machinery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bulldozer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compactor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Excavator<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Backhoe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telescopic handler<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wheel Tractor Scraper<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Feller Buncher<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loader<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grader<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trencher<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paver<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dump Truck<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Forklift<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cranes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Forwarder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skidder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Harvester<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Global Construction Equipment Market Size<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">COVID-19 has slowed down the economy. This slowdown is affecting sales in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/expertise\/industrieen\/construction-market-research\/\" title=\"Bouwmarktonderzoek\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9045\">construction and mining equipment market<\/a>. Still, analysts expect a recovery once the situation improves. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/top-marketingstrategiebedrijf\/\" title=\"Top Marketing Strategie Bedrijf\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9043\">top company in the heavy machinery market<\/a> is Caterpillar Inc. AB Volvo, CNH Industrial NV, Hitachi Ltd., Doosan Infracore Co. Ltd., Komatsu Ltd., Deere &amp; Company, and J C Bamford Excavators Ltd are also heavy-hitters.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">Analysts have uncovered several construction equipment trends. Of significance is the ongoing shift from traditional to automated. Global demand for more upgraded, fuel-efficient equipment is on the increase. The Asia-Pacific region may emerge dominant in the worldwide heavy machinery market share. Analysts also expect the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/market-research-in-europe\/\" title=\"De Europese markt\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9041\">European market<\/a> to grow due to improving employment levels. That market also had an increasing demand for new housing units (pre-COVID).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Construction Equipment Manufacturers\u2019 Market Share<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">Many large cities across the globe are going through rapid industrialization. That, coupled with lucrative employment opportunities is supporting the population shift from rural to urban areas. It is one of the drivers of growth in the construction equipment industry (India and China are examples). The construction equipment market in India is also growing due to smart city projects. The need for construction equipment is high from the residential construction sector. These projects boost the demand for high-quality heavy machinery.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">De <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/expertise\/industrieen\/heavy-industry-market-research\/\" title=\"Marktonderzoek zware industrie\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9046\">heavy equipment industry<\/a> is also seeing an increase in public-private partnerships. Many of these partnerships are for installing infrastructure work. There has also been wide-scale adoption of the rental business model. Many companies are entering the construction equipment rental business. They are finding the profitability of the rental model to be attractive. These factors have increased demand for heavy machinery over the past few years. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Cat Market Share in Construction Machinery<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Almost every construction equipment report shows Caterpillar Inc. as a market dominator. The Cat equipment product line comprises more than 300 machines. It sets the standard for the heavy machinery industry. Cat also dominates the heavy equipment rental and used equipment markets. The company also produces footwear, clothing, scale models, toys, accessories, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p3\"><span class=\"s2\">The Impact of COVID-19 on the Construction and Mining Equipment Market<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">COVID-19 has hurt construction equipment <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/nl\/oplossingen\/b2b-enterprise-sales-market-research\/\" title=\"B2B Enterprise Sales Market Research\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"9047\">marketing and sales<\/a>. Caterpillar has reported declining sales, which, of course, has led to a drop in profits. The industry will feel the impact of the continued global economic uncertainty. Some companies are not even providing a financial outlook for the near future. Still, many governments have classed heavy machinery as an essential activity. They need equipment for the support of critical infrastructure. Thus, equipment manufacturers can continue to operate in those countries.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">In the wake of the crisis, manufacturers are implementing new methods. They are also adding safety procedures to continue production where possible. Some companies have shifted their focus. They have started to make and distribute lifesaving personal protective equipment. Others have found it necessary to close some facilities to keep employees safe. Plants are also closing because of reduced demand.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Why is Heavy Machinery Market Research so Important?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">Heavy Machinery Market Research is essential.
