Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of cordless and battery-powered grinders, rising demand for lightweight and ergonomic tool designs, increased use of high-torque and variable speed grinders, expansion of multi-application grinding tools, focus on enhanced safety and dust control features.

The growth in construction activities is expected to drive the portable grinders market going forward. Construction activities involve the planning, designing, and execution of building, infrastructure, and civil engineering projects. This sector is expanding due to rising infrastructure development and increasing demand for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Portable grinders are employed in construction for cutting, grinding, and polishing materials, ensuring smooth surfaces and precise finishes. For example, in July 2023, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, an Australian government agency, the number of dwellings under construction in the March quarter of 2023 rose to 240,813 from 240,065 in 2022, with new houses totaling 103,778 in 2023, up from 101,240 the previous year. Therefore, the expansion of construction activities is fueling the growth of the portable grinders market.

Companies in the portable grinders market are focusing on technological advancements such as double air inlet cooling systems to improve efficiency, extend tool lifespan, and boost performance during heavy usage. This system works by drawing air through two separate inlets, enhancing airflow, improving heat dissipation, and preventing overheating in high-performance tools. For instance, in January 2023, Robert Bosch GmbH, a German engineering company, launched the GWS 800 professional angle grinder in India. It features an 800W motor, an ergonomic design, and a double-air inlet cooling system, ensuring better grinding and cutting performance. The GWS 800 Professional is manufactured in Bosch’s Chennai plant, increasing its localization share in India to 55%. The product is competitively priced and aimed at fabricators, electricians, plumbers, masons, and carpenters.

In September 2024, Metso Corporation, a Finland-based industrial machinery manufacturer, acquired Diamond Z and Screen Machine Industries LLC. in a bid to expand its mobile equipment portfolio for organic recycling and strengthen its presence in infrastructure recycling. Diamond Z, based in the US, offers a variety of portable grinders, including tub and horizontal grinders, while Screen Machine Industries LLC. is a US manufacturer specializing in heavy-duty, portable crushing and screening equipment for materials processing and recycling.
