Woodworking Machinery Global Market Report 2024

The woodworking machinery market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $29.29 billion in 2023 to $31.87 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the construction and real estate boom, demand in furniture manufacturing, growth in wood processing industries, the significance of craftsmanship and artisanal woodwork, and trends in renovation and remodeling.

The woodworking machinery market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $43.52 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing number of global construction projects, advancements in furniture designs, the integration of technology, the adoption of green building practices, and the expected global economic recovery. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period include innovations in wood finishing technologies, the digitalization of design and production processes, trends towards customization and personalization, the integration of augmented reality (AR) for training and design purposes, and a shift towards compact and space-efficient machines.

The anticipated expansion of the construction industry is set to drive the growth of the woodworking machinery market in the foreseeable future. The construction industry encompasses the planning, design, development, and construction of structures and infrastructure. Woodworking machinery plays a pivotal role in construction activities, enabling precision shaping, cutting, and assembling of wood components. This facilitates the production of doors, windows, furniture, and other architectural elements crucial for building structures. In the U.S., for example, it is reported that an estimated 1,595,100 housing units were initiated in 2021, marking a 15.6% increase from 1,379,600 in 2020. Therefore, the ongoing expansion in the construction sector is a key driver of the woodworking machinery market.

The upsurge in infrastructure development is expected to further fuel the growth of the woodworking machinery market. Infrastructure development involves the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of essential physical structures and systems supporting society, regions, or industries. Woodworking machinery is integral to infrastructure projects, contributing to the creation of components such as formwork, scaffolding, and architectural elements. Precision cutting, shaping, and assembly of wooden materials are facilitated by these machines, enhancing the construction of durable and customized structures. Notably, the United States has taken a significant step towards infrastructure improvement with the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) in November 2021. The IIJA is set to invest $550 billion over the next decade to enhance various aspects of infrastructure, including roads, bridges, airports, railroads, clean water access, and broadband internet. Hence, the surge in infrastructure development is a significant driver for the woodworking machinery market.

Major companies in the woodworking machinery sector are focusing on developing innovative products such as CNC machines. CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines are automated manufacturing devices utilizing computerized systems to control precise machining operations on various materials. For instance, Comeva, a Spain-based woodworking machinery company, launched the NICRON 5X CNC machines in November 2022. These machines are designed for medium and large companies seeking enhanced productivity, offering precision and efficiency for applications such as door machining, cutting and machining boards, and versatile woodworking tasks.

A strategy employed by major woodworking machinery companies involves the development of new products such as angle grinders to enhance competitiveness. Angle grinders, handheld power tools used for grinding, cutting, and polishing, are among the innovative products introduced by companies such as Robert Bosch GmbH. In January 2023, Bosch launched the GWS 800 Professional angle grinder, featuring a powerful 800W motor, lightweight ergonomic design, and specialized features catering to the Indian market. This product is designed to provide superior grinding and cutting experiences, considering the average palm size of an Indian user for increased comfort and reduced fatigue during overhead applications. Additionally, features such as a metal flange and high-quality carbon brush contribute to durability and ease of maintenance across various applications.
