The global hydraulic equipment market generated ~$37 billion in 2020, and it is projected to witness significant growth during the forecast period (2021–2030). The key factors responsible for this are the rising demand for material handling equipment and increasing adoption of hydraulic equipment in many industries. Further, the increase in underwater exploration activities is propelling the market for hydraulic equipment worldwide.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the hydraulic equipment market has been negative. Due to the implementation of lockdowns worldwide, the demand for hydraulic equipment decreased, while its production stopped, as many factories were closed.
In 2020, the mobile hydraulics bifurcation held the larger share in the hydraulic equipment market, and it would show significant growth during the forecast period, based on type. This can be credited to the rising need for hydraulic power at remote and difficult terrain, or when lifting heavy loads, and advancements in the hydraulics technology.
In the upcoming years, the agricultural end-user category would display the fastest growth rate, owing to the rapid adoption of hydraulics in agriculture machinery because of its benefits, especially in plowing. Further, planting and harvesting can be improved by using hydraulic equipment, which is are easy to operate with agricultural machines.
Globally, the largest market for hydraulic equipment was APAC in 2020, and it is predicted to witness a significant growth rate in the upcoming years. This can be ascribed to the rapid industrialization, rising construction activities, and increasing investments in infrastructure development in this region. Moreover, the advantages of hydraulic equipment over other systems, such as easy control and constant torque regardless of speed changes, are increasing the demand for it.
In the hydraulic equipment market, players’ main focus is on expanding their product portfolio in order to enhance their presence. For instance, in 2019, Eaton Corporation plc launched Delta series motor, designed mainly for traction drives for turf care equipment. This is helping the company increase its portfolio of turf care products and serve its customers in a better way. Thus, product launches have become a key trend in the market for hydraulic equipment.
The demand for construction equipment in developing countries is increasing, as high investments are being made for the construction of apartments, offices, and civic infrastructure. For instance, in 2020, the Government of India set a target to improve the infrastructure by constructing roads with a total sum of INR 15 lakh crore in the next two years. Further, the rapidly rising population has resulted in the increasing demand for housing, which has boosted the procurement of hydraulic equipment in emerging economies.
The increasing industrialization rate in developing countries has helped the hydraulic equipment market grow. Companies are opening their manufacturing bases in APAC countries, as they have found a well-established supply chain in the region. Further, the low cost of raw materials and labor and less-strict environmental regulations in the region are attracting manufacturers. This has led to the rapid establishment of factories, which is driving the demand for hydraulic equipment increased the region.
