Container Handling Equipment Market Projected to reach $8.75 billion by 2025
The Container
Handling Equipment Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.24%,
during the forecast period, to reach a market size of USD 8.75 billion by 2025.
Increased cargo transportation, growing use of automation technologies at port
terminals, stringent emission levels resulting in the increased demand for
electric and hybrid equipment, and the rising demand in Asia Pacific and the
Middle East are the key factors driving the growth of the container handling
equipment market.
The container handling equipment
market is dominated by a few global players and comprises several regional
players. Some of the key manufacturers and suppliers in the container handling
equipment market are Kalmar (Finland), Konecranes (Finland), Liebherr
(Switzerland), Hyster (US), Sany (China), ZPMC (China), Lonking (China), Anhui
Heli (China), CVS Ferrari (Italy), and Hoist Liftruck (US). Contracts &
agreements and new product developments were the prominent strategies adopted
by these players to gain traction in the container handling equipment market.
For instance, in January 2018, CVS Ferrari completed the delivery of an
F500.RS3 reach stacker to Indorama Ventures (Thailand) at its production plant
in Corlu, Turkey. The plant produces pet bottles for the European market and
the F500.RS3 reach stacker would handle containers of raw chemicals.
Alternatively, companies also adopted the new product developments strategy to
maintain their positions in the market. In September 2017, Hyster planned to
develop a new 48-ton electric container handling product. The testing phase is
expected to start shortly, and the equipment will utilize lithium-ion battery
technology for electrification, helping the company achieve its zero-emission
targets.

business of Inver Engineering (Australia), a part of Inver Engineering, which
provides repair, maintenance, and refurbishment services for cargo handling
equipment at port terminals in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific region.
Konecranes is another prominent
player in the container handling equipment market. Konecranes adopted the
mergers & acquisitions and contracts & agreements strategies to
strengthen its market position. In January 2017, it acquired the material
handling and port solutions (MHPS) business segment of Terex Corporation (US).
The acquisition, worth USD 1.22 billion, added Terex Demag and Port solutions
to Konecranes’ product portfolio, including container handling equipment and
reach stackers. The company has also been awarded multiple contracts. In December
2017, Konecranes received a contract from Kramer Group (Netherlands) for 11 SMV
