The global compaction equipment market size stood at a value of around USD 5.33 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow in the forecast period of 2025-2034 at a CAGR of 4.30% to reach USD 8.12 Billion by 2034.
Increased Business Profitability Facilitated by Rammers to Augment the Global Compaction Equipment Industry
A rammer is built with an upright design which allows it to reach complex places where other compactors might struggle to reach. It works on a small footprint and high impact mechanism which increases its manoeuvrability. Rammer is fast and easy to use which decreases the labour costs, thereby, increasing the profit margin for businesses. This is a crucial driving factor of the segment.
Over the forecast period, the anticipated increase in the demand for rammers for road repair, shoulders, pavements, highways, and streets, among others, is likely to propel the segment’s growth. Furthermore, the rapid development of rammers with decreased weight and greater manoeuvrability is anticipated to provide impetus to the segment in the coming years.
The rising demand for compaction equipment from residential and commercial construction projects is further propelling the demand for the product. During the forecast period, the increasing focus of key market players towards increasing investments and growth strategies is likely to lead to an increase in mergers and acquisitions.
The increasing construction activities across the emerging economies owing to the rapid urbanisation, increasing population, and rising disposable income is driving the demand for the compaction equipment market. In addition to this, the increasing investments by the government aimed towards improving infrastructure by repairing roads and increasing highway standards are further propelling the market growth. Moreover, the growing availability of these equipment on rental basis is increasing the affordability of the product which is a key driving factor.
Across the span of the forecast period, there is an anticipated increase in the demand for compaction equipment in mining industry owing to the rising demand for coal and precious metals. This is likely to lead to an increase in product sales. Furthermore, the growing research and development activities aimed towards achieving high business productivity while reducing the emission of greenhouse gases are anticipated to lead to progressive product innovations.
