Construction Equipment Rental Market Size Worth $105.29 Billion By 2030

Construction Equipment Rental Market Growth & Trends

The global construction equipment rental market size is expected to reach USD 105.29 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising government investment in the infrastructure sector and increasing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the construction domain to develop roads, highways, expressways, bridges, skyscrapers, and smart cities have created a demand for rental construction equipment. Constant technology advancement to produce cutting-edge project-oriented construction equipment that optimizes the overall construction process is propelling the growth of the construction equipment rental market. 

Higher total cost ownership of new construction equipment & machines encourages small & medium scale construction companies and contractors to adopt rental construction equipment. Additionally, renting reduces the maintenance, repair, insurance, and warehousing costs associated with owning; thus, construction equipment rental provides an economical alternative to the construction firms.

The pandemic led to a global lockdown and supply chain disruption which impacted the manufacturing, construction, and mining sectors at large. Post pandemic, issues such as lack of availability of skilled workforce, spiking raw material prices, and high EMIs have amplified uncertainties in the construction sector subsequently hampering the growth pace. Thus, to avoid the risk aversion and reduce uncertainty, larger-scale construction companies are switching towards renting the construction equipment's, thereby driving the growth of the construction rental equipment market.

The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness a high pace of growth during the forecast period. The prominent players in the construction equipment rental market, based in China, are focusing on developing advanced equipment that reduces machine downtime, requires lesser fuel, and provides high output. Besides, the Indian government is heavily investing in massive infrastructural projects to boost the country's economy; thus, these factors are expected to leverage the growth of the construction equipment market in the region.
