More Details

Motor vehicle, chemical, food and beverage industries show best market prospects
Durable goods manufacturers accounted for the largest portion of global material handling equipment demand in 2007. Growth over the forecast period will benefit from rising production in key markets such as the motor vehicle industry. Demand from nondurable goods manufacturers will also advance, due to solid growth in the chemicals and food and beverages markets.

Advanced/automated types to post the fastest gains Demand for conventional material handling products -- such as industrial trucks and lifts, conveyors, hoists, cranes and the like -- will benefit from rapid industrialization in developing nations. Advanced/automated material handling products such as robots and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) will post the best gains, as will software and high-end services like systems design and project management. These types of products and services can enhance the productivity of the material handling function, and are amenable to integration into larger-scale factory automation and automated warehouse-type environments.

Study coverage
Details on these and other key findings are available in the new Freedonia industry study, World Material Handling Equipment. Priced at $5700, this study presents historical demand data (1997, 2002 and 2007) plus forecasts for 2012 and 2017 by material handling equipment product, end use market, world region and major national market. In addition, the study considers market environment factors, assesses the industry structure, evaluates company market share and pro- files global competitors.
