Asia Pacific is home to two of the fastest growing economies in the world. Morever, many small economies in the region are ramping up their archaic network of roads and highways, creating significant demand for heavy construction equipment. Excavator manufacturers are likely to benefit from these broader developments in developing countries of Asia Pacific. The FactMR study finds that the APEJ region accounted for over 47% volume share in the excavator market in 2018, and projects that the region will continue to create lucrative sales opportunities for excavator market players in the upcoming years.

According to the study, the high cost of excavators continues to induce a preference for renting. As excavators are cost-sensitive, renting continues to be feasible option, especially in micro projects.

The study also offers a forecast of the excavator market for the period between 2018 and 2026. The study foresees the excavator market to record an average volume CAGR of over 3.2% through 2026.
