Ship Loader and Unloader Market Research - 2030
The global ship loader and unloader market size was valued at $39,770.2 million in 2020, and is expected to reach $57,870.9 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 3.6% from 2021 to 2030.
Market Introduction and Definition
Ship loader and unloader machine is a robust machine used to load and unload bulk material such as grains, coal, composites, and metals. Ship loader and unloader is available with tonnage capacity of 200 tons per hour to 8,000 tons per hour. Ship loader and unloader machines are best suitable for applications such as mining, construction, packaging, manufacturing, sea ports, and cargo terminals. In addition, it offers extremely high lifting capability and peak efficiency, stability, and precision.
Surge in urbanization is a major factor influencing demand for ship loaders and unloaders in developing nations such as India, Vietnam, and Brazil. Surge in necessity for housing, especially in urban areas has influenced construction of high-rise structures, which require ship loaders and unloaders to transport cement and composites from one port to another port, which, in turn, fuels growth of the ship loader and unloader market.
Rise in government spending on construction related activities is expected to increase demand for cement and composites required for construction. This is expected to increase demand for ship loaders for moving from one cargo terminal to another cargo terminal, which fuels growth of the ship loader and unloader market. For instance, in 2018, the government of Italy spent around $6.2 billion on building construction activities.
However, high cost of ship loaders and unloaders and fluctuation in raw material prices, limits growth of the ship loader and unloader market. On the contrary, adoption of ship loaders and unloaders for remote operations is anticipated to create growth opportunities for the market. Rise in adoption of ship loaders and unloaders in prefabricated construction is anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for growth of the market.
By Product Type
Mobile segment is projected to grow at a significant CAGR
In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has shut-down production and sales of various products in the ship loader and unloader market, mainly owing to prolonged lockdown in major global countries including the U.S., Italy, and the UK. This has hampered growth of the ship loader and unloader market significantly in last few months, and is expected to continue during the pandemic. Moreover, lockdowns have also led to a halt in construction activities, thereby hampering demand for the ship loader and unloader market during 2020.
By Technology
