Forklift trucks are industrial trucks that are widely utilized for lifting and moving materials within short distances. They are powered industrial machines that consist of two power-operated horizontal prongs which can be raised or lowered for loading, unloading and transporting goods and raw materials. Commonly operated by a trained driver, these machines enable easy movement of heavy goods horizontally and vertically, thereby facilitating them to perform versatile industrial tasks in an efficient manner. Their usage further aids in improving the overall productivity of the process and minimizing the chances of injuries and accidents. As a result, they are extensively employed across the logistics, transportation, retail, manufacturing and construction sectors.

Global Forklift Trucks Market Trends:

The global market is majorly driven by the considerable growth of the construction sector. Supported by rapid urbanization, inflating disposable income levels and the shifting lifestyle preferences of the masses, this has resulted in the expansion of the residential segment across the globe, wherein forklift trucks are increasingly being used for handling heavy construction materials, such as bricks, wood, steel and mortar, in a convenient manner. The market is also driven by the increasing utilization of these trucks across the e-commerce sector. They are commonly used for delivering components to assembly lines, retrieving loads from storage racks, and positioning materials in their respective spots for effective handling in the industry. Escalating preference for online shopping on account of the enhanced convenience associated with these portals is expected to provide an impetus to the market growth. Moreover, there has been a rising demand for electric forklift trucks across numerous industries for performing numerous industrial tasks. These variants offer enhanced efficiency and optimal productivity when compared to their conventional counterparts, which, in turn, has contributed to their widespread popularity among end users. Some of the other factors contributing to the market growth include extensive research and development (R&D) for the development of energy-efficient variants and the launch of sustainable hydrogen-operated forklift trucks in the market. On account of the aforementioned factors, the market is expected to reach a value of US$ 83.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.9% during 2023-2028.
