Asia Pacific Material Handling Equipment Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the APAC Material Handling Equipment Market according to our research experts:
Electric Material Handling Equipment are Driving the Market
When it comes to material handling trucks the right choice of forklift can improve the overall performance and reduce the operational cost. However, some businesses are turning to electric equipment, as it offers improved efficiency, good battery power, low cost of ownership, low maintenance costs. These electric trucks are equipped with outdoor-friendly pneumatic tires too. This much-needed transformation is driven by the growing interest of customers who are opting for cleaner, higher-capacity trucks that can withstand heavy lifting and perform the same as an IC truck and are environmentally friendly.
Electric trucks are adopted in indoors for quite a few years for light operations. But now electric forklifts are efficiently working outdoors, for various demanding tasks performed by IC trucks. They are now been adopted in tough industries such as recycling centers and construction.
Lithium-ion batteries are becoming a popular option for electric lift trucks batteries as they do not require high-level maintenance as compared to lead-acid, also hydrogen and other gases which are produced by lead-acid are not acceptable in clean food production and storage areas.
According to the Industrial Truck Association's data, electric and internal combustion truck sales grew at a rate of 2.8% and 2.7%, in 2019, and electric products hold nearly two-thirds of the forklift market.
While many local players in the market are entering into the partnership with other regional players to increase their market presence
In 2020, Toyota Material Handling (TMH), introduced new 3,000- and 3,500-pound capacity electric lift trucks models which are equipped with Toyota-designed AC motors that are built to deliver high performance to boost both productivity and reduce operational cost.
In 2019, BYD which is one of the leaders in LiFePO4 lithium technology has partnered with eForklift for distributing its products in the Australian and New Zealand market.
Whereas in 2019, Encarna invests in Hyundai Material Handling, through this investment Encarna will expand its training portfolio to process with the new CACES (certificate of safe driving skills) training reforms.
China is anticipated to have the largest share in the market
China has been a prominent contributor to the growth of the material handling equipment market in the Asia-Pacific region. The increasing demand for AMH products across industries, such as manufacturing, automotive, and e-commerce, among others, is boosting the market's growth positively. China has the presence of almost all the market leaders and the ecosystem of China helps in the growth of the market. As various events are being organized with the help of market participants often for showcasing the latest advancements and better business opportunities. For instance
