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 swift increase in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly affecting the machinery sector by increasing costs for steel, hydraulic systems, and precision bearings critical components often imported from tariff-affected regions. Manufacturers of construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery now face squeezed margins, as many long-term contracts prevent immediate price adjustments. The uncertainty has also delayed investment in automation and smart machinery technologies, slowing productivity gains. To adapt, firms are accelerating local supplier development, redesigning products to use alternative materials, and leveraging predictive maintenance to extend equipment lifespans amid higher replacement costs.
