The increase in construction activities is anticipated to drive the growth of the vertical mast lift market in the coming years. Construction activities involve the planning, implementation, and completion of projects aimed at building or renovating structures, infrastructure, and facilities. This growth in construction is largely attributed to a robust economy, rising population levels, increased government investment in public infrastructure, and the expansion of the real estate sector. Vertical mast lifts are widely utilized in construction projects because of their compact size, easy maneuverability, and capability to safely access elevated work areas. Their contribution to improved safety, mobility, and operational efficiency makes them essential equipment on construction sites. For example, in July 2024, according to the Bureau of National Statistics, a Kazakhstan-based government agency, the total value of construction services in 2023 was estimated at 7.61 trillion tenge, representing a 15.1% increase compared to 2022. Therefore, the rise in construction activities is fueling the growth of the vertical mast lift market.

Leading companies in the vertical mast lift market are innovating with self-propelled, tracked aerial work platforms to enhance versatility and performance. Self-propelled technology improves maneuverability, while tracked platforms offer better traction and stability, making these lifts effective for both indoor and outdoor use. For instance, in April 2024, Platform Basket, an Italian aerial lift manufacturer, introduced the Spider 54T, an upgraded version of its Heren 10 vertical mast lift at Intermat, specifically designed for the French market. The Spider 54T is a sophisticated aerial work platform suited for heavy-duty lifting and versatile applications across various industries including construction, infrastructure maintenance, telecommunications, and manufacturing. The redesigned Heron 10 SB for the French market simplifies the original model by eliminating features such as the stabilization system, radio control, interchangeable battery, and winch.

In January 2023, JLG Industries Inc., a US-based producer of aerial work platforms and telehandlers, acquired Hinowa SpA for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition expands JLG's product range, enhancing its specialty applications and increasing its footprint in niche markets such as agriculture, landscaping, and vegetation management. Hinowa SpA, based in Italy, manufactures aerial work platforms including vertical mast lifts.
