According to the UnivDatos, as per their “Aerial Work Platforms Market” report, the global market was valued at USD 16.56 billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of about 8.87% during the forecast period from 2024-2032 to reach USD billion by 2032.

The aerial work platform segment is witnessing dynamic changes owing to technological developments and the obvious requirement for safety and efficiency in elevated access solutions across sectors. Various types of aerial work platforms are set up to access places that are difficult to reach for some human and industrial activities such as construction, maintenance, telecommunications, and management of facilities. With the growing advancement in the aerial work platforms to create safe working environments and industry applications such as construction and utilities, the AWP market is witnessing a growing level of innovation and adoption.

Manufacturers are heavily focusing on improvements in safety, productivity, and performance with more advanced smart technology being incorporated to respond to the changing needs of the industry. Prominent trends affecting the future of the AWP market are electrification and hybridization of machines, increased telematics, and growing automation and IoT technology development. The market for aerial work platforms for green technologies continues to expand due to industry pressures for sustainability and ecosystem-friendly practices, such as zero-emission platforms.

Recent Developments in the Aerial Work Platforms Sector:

Several key important developments are influencing future growth for the aerial work platforms market, to respond to growing demands for high-performing, reliable, and safe platforms.

·      In February 2023, MEC Aerial Work Platforms launched its latest innovation in scissor lifts meant to show that less can mean more. Based on the global success of their Micro Scissor line-up, MEC engineers developed an all-electric first-scissor-the NANO10-XD. The new environmentally friendly scissor lift has ultra-compact dimensions and does pose any potential risk of oil leakage for environmentally delicate applications, since there is zero hydraulic oil used in lift, steering, and driving. The NANO10-XD is designed to provide extended battery duty cycle standard lithium-ion batteries while requiring less charging time and providing more uptime without compromising performance.

·      In February 2024, Manitou Group has launched a new range of scissor lifts, called the Manitou Easy Lift. These product lines are meant to be productivity-enabling scissor lifts for the aerial work platform markets. The latest scissor lifts have better lifting capacity, stability, and maneuverability both indoors and outdoors. These scissor lifts maximize energy efficiency with both electric and hybrid power options-as part of sustainability goals.

·      In May 2023, JCB launched the two flexible-boom aerial work platforms, the A45E and A45EH. These machines come with diesel/electric hybrid and battery-electric drivelines. The models enhance customer performance in operating efficiencies, access for operators, and monitoring.

·      In November 2024, Genie goes with a completely modern outlook and design on its core slab scissor lift product line that has been launched in 2024, which enhances their performance and reduces their owning cost even further. The next-gen Genie scissor lifts comprise the GSTM-1932, GS-2632, GS-3232, GS-2646, GS-3246, and GS-4046 scissor lifts. These next-generation scissor lifts by Genie will set the new slab scissor lift standard, and this traditional MEWP product category will move into the future.

Trend: Shift Toward Eco-Friendly, High-Performance Aerial Work Platforms

In recent years, as industries began promoting greener alternatives, there has been an increasing demand for electric, hybrid, and low-emission aerial work platforms (AWP). Manufacturers are increasingly focusing on producing platforms that are low in carbon footprints but perform good and are durable. Diesel-powered machines converting to electric and hybrid machines are noticeable, especially in urban areas, where noise and emissions regulations are tightening. Electric AWP, in contrast, are advantageous in many ways, such as lower operational costs (because of less fuel consumption) and low maintenance requirements. With global policies embracing environmental concerns, AWPs meeting sustainability standards and performance are appealing to companies. For instance, in 2024, Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd. has released a series of groundbreaking aerial work platform (AWP) products, including the world’s tallest straight boom aerial work platform, the ZT82J, with a height of 82.3 meters. The ZT82J boasts a platform amplitude of 34.1 meters, a climbing capacity of 35%, and a maximum working load of 454 kilograms. Additionally, Zoomlion has introduced the ZT51JEH, an extended-range electric straight boom AWP that reaches a working height of 50.6 meters and supports a maximum load of 454 kilograms.
