Port Equipment Market Size to exceed $9 Bn by 2025
- Published Date: July 25, 2019
Port Equipment Market size is anticipated to exceed USD 9 billion by 2025; according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
Growing maritime trade activities along with increasing container shipments across the globe are positively influencing the port equipment market share over the forecast timeframe. Free trade agreements in conjunction with supporting trade partnerships between emerging economies will augment the industry size over the study timeframe. According to UNCTAD, the international seaborne trade will witness over 3.5% compounded growth annually from 2018 to 2023.
Increasing cargo traffic coupled with port capacity expansion is fostering the demand for advanced cargo handling equipment. For instance, in August 2018, the Port of Rotterdam recorded 10.78 million TEU cargo volume with an increase of over 6% as compared in 2017. Further, development of port infrastructure for catering the growing trade activities will strengthen the port equipment market revenue over the study timeframe.

Growing adoption of alternative fuel powered port equipment is attributed towards their lower operating costs and reduced environmental impact. Port authorities are focusing to replace their existing cranes with hybrid equipment providing significant fuel savings and lower greenhouse gas emissions. For instance, in November 2016, the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA) completed the third phase of replacing diesel powered gantry cranes with hybrid cranes at the Port of Savannah.
Adoption of automated technologies for fast and efficient cargo transfer is significantly contributing towards reduction of overall cycle times, further supporting the industry expansion. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Automated Stacking Cranes (ASCs) offering enhanced capabilities for automated cargo movement at dock yards are gaining higher visibility. For instance, in February 2019, APM Terminals planned to use automated straddle carries US West Coast marine terminals to handle increasing cargo volume.
Availability of customized ship to shore solutions offering enhanced efficiency and management of traffic during container handling is providing positive outlook for the port equipment market share. Supporting initiatives and policies proposed by government bodies are accelerating the development of port infrastructure. For instance, in March 2015, Government of India approved the Sagarmala Project for enhancing the capacities at major ports and developing integrated ports.
