Ground Engaging Tools (GET) Market Report 2025

The ground engaging tools (GET) market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.92 billion in 2024 to $8.38 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising adoption of precision and automated construction equipment, increased awareness of optimizing equipment lifecycle costs, growing demand for replacing worn-out tools, heightened focus on safety and productivity at construction and mining sites, and expanding mechanization in agriculture and forestry sectors.

The ground engaging tools (GET) market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.37 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth expected in the forecast period is driven by increasing demand for construction and infrastructure development, rising investments in mining activities, expanding urbanization and industrialization, greater emphasis on equipment efficiency and productivity, and increased government spending on roadways, railways, and public infrastructure. Key trends anticipated during this period include advancements in wear-resistant materials, development of 3D printing technology, improvements in surface treatment techniques, integration of automated and semi-autonomous equipment, and technology-driven enhancements in casting and forging processes.

The growth of the ground engaging tools (GET) market is expected to be driven by increasing mining activities. Mining involves the extraction and processing of minerals and geological materials from the earth through methods such as drilling, blasting, and excavation. The surge in mining is fueled by rapid industrialization in emerging economies, which boosts the demand for metals and minerals essential for manufacturing. Ground engaging tools enhance mining operations by increasing the efficiency and durability of machinery used for digging, cutting, and moving earth and rock, thereby improving productivity and reducing equipment downtime. For example, in June 2022, Statistics Botswana, a national statistical bureau, reported that the mining production index reached 97 in the first quarter of 2022, marking a 30.4% increase compared to 74.4 in the same quarter of 2021. Thus, the rise in mining activities is supporting the growth of the ground engaging tools market.

Leading companies in the ground engaging tools market are focusing on innovation by developing solutions like hammerless locking systems that allow for quicker, safer replacement of components, thereby enhancing operational efficiency. A hammerless locking system is designed to improve safety by enabling the tool-free installation or removal of ground engaging tool parts without needing a hammer. For instance, in April 2023, MTG Systems, a manufacturer based in Spain, launched VEEMET, a next-generation tooth system that offers improved stability, optimized hammerless locking for secure and efficient tooth replacement, and enhanced penetration to increase productivity and machine uptime in mining and construction. Its digital features, including QR code integration, provide real-time monitoring and instant access to product data, helping to cut downtime and reduce operational expenses.

In February 2023, Epiroc AB, a mining company based in Sweden, acquired CQMS Razer Pvt. Ltd. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition expands Epiroc’s portfolio with a wider range of advanced consumables and digital tools designed to boost productivity and promote safer operations for clients. It also supports more sustainable mining by providing essential equipment for extracting key metals and minerals. CQMS Razer Pvt. Ltd. is an Australia-based manufacturer specializing in ground engaging tools.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The sharp hike in U.S. tariffs and the associated trade disputes in spring 2025 are notably impacting the aerospace and defense sector by raising costs for titanium, carbon fiber composites, and avionics materials largely sourced from global suppliers. Defense contractors, locked into fixed-price government contracts, absorb these added costs, while commercial aerospace firms face airline pushback on higher aircraft prices. Delays in component shipments due to customs bottlenecks further disrupt tight production schedules for jets and satellites. The industry is responding by stockpiling critical materials, seeking waivers for defense-related imports, and collaborating with allied nations to diversify supply chain.

Ground engaging tools (GET) are critical parts that come into direct contact with the ground during earthmoving and excavation tasks. They significantly enhance machinery efficiency and performance by enduring harsh conditions like impact, pressure, and abrasion. These tools help maintain equipment effectiveness, reduce wear, and support cost-efficient, uninterrupted operation.

The main types of ground engaging tools include bucket teeth, adapters, cutting edges, blades, rippers, and others. Bucket teeth are removable metal pieces attached to the edges of excavator and loader buckets to improve digging performance. These tools are manufactured from materials such as steel, alloy steel, cast iron, polyurethane, and ceramic. They find applications in excavation, loading, grading, trenching, and more, serving key industries like construction, mining, and agriculture.
