The increasing emphasis on workplace safety is expected to drive the growth of the indoor lifting machine market in the coming years. Workplace safety refers to the practices, policies, and measures implemented to protect employees from accidents, injuries, and health hazards while ensuring a safe and healthy work environment. The rising focus on workplace safety is largely driven by stricter government regulations that require organizations to adopt higher safety standards to ensure employee well-being and reduce legal and financial risks. Indoor lifting machines contribute to workplace safety by minimizing the need for manual lifting, lowering the risk of injuries such as strains and sprains, ensuring stable and controlled movement of heavy loads to prevent accidents, and improving efficiency while reducing physical strain, thereby creating a safer and healthier working environment. For example, in September 2024, according to the Central Statistical Office of Poland, a government agency based in Poland, workplace accidents caused 30,435 injuries during the first half of 2024, representing a 7.2 percent increase compared to the same period in 2023. Therefore, the growing focus on workplace safety is fueling the expansion of the indoor lifting machine market.

Key companies operating in the indoor lifting machine market are focusing on adopting advanced approaches such as zero-emission electric power to enhance operational efficiency, improve workplace safety, and reduce environmental impact. Zero-emission electric power refers to electricity generated without the release of harmful pollutants or greenhouse gases into the environment, using clean energy sources to ensure sustainable and eco-friendly energy generation. For instance, in April 2025, Lingong Heavy Machinery Co. Ltd. (LGMG), a China-based manufacturing company, introduced the compact A30JE electric boom lift designed specifically for indoor jobsites where space is limited and maneuverability is essential. The machine offers zero-emission performance, quiet operation, and high energy efficiency. Its compact structure and advanced safety features ensure smooth access to hard-to-reach areas while minimizing environmental impact, underscoring the company’s commitment to providing sustainable and innovative lifting solutions for modern indoor work environments. This launch is expected to strengthen the indoor lifting machine market by offering an efficient, safe, and sustainable solution aligned with contemporary jobsite needs.

In August 2024, Piab Group, a Sweden-based industrial technology company, acquired Alum-a-Lift for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is expected to leverage Piab Group’s strong brand reputation, history of innovation, and global presence to enable Alum-a-Lift to expand further and ensure long-term business sustainability for the company and its employees. The combined expertise will strengthen their leadership position and support ongoing growth in the automation industry. Alum-a-Lift is a US-based manufacturer of indoor lifting machines.
