Technavio analysts highlight the following three factors that are contributing to the growth of the telehandlers market for the construction industry:
Growth in infrastructure development
Infrastructure development has a direct impact on various sectors of the global economy. The need for better infrastructure leads to a high demand for telehandlers, as they can be useful in a wide range of construction activities. The worldwide construction industry is continuously recovering after having gone through a long period of slowdown in the wake of the financial crisis.
Likhitha Bandla, a lead construction research analyst at Technavio, says, “Construction ventures in developing markets are likely to keep growing at a much quicker rate than that in advanced economies. Developing markets represented more than half of the world's construction market.”
Demand from rental market
The rental equipment industry is capital-intensive. Funds are required for acquisition and maintenance of equipment fleets, secure storage facilities, work on fleets, and for operating businesses. Factors such as cash inflows from businesses, equipment utilization, dollar and time utilization, and higher prices have contributed to the growth of the market.
“Owing to the temporary requirement of telehandlers in building projects, construction market customers often opt to rent telehandlers instead of making a purchase. Rental organizations are focused on customer services, and help customers find appropriate telehandlers to complete various work efficiently,” adds Likhitha.
Aging telehandler fleet
Telehandlers usually have a higher resale value due to lesser wear out components when compared with other products such as excavators. Frequent serviceability and unexpected repairs of telehandlers keep these machines off rent. The reduction in equipment utilization is a major challenge for rental companies.
It is noted that the employment of telehandlers, so far, has not depreciated in the used market. Many rental companies sell their equipment and upgrade their fleet for increased productivity. It is estimated that the average age of a telehandler fleet is 53 months.
