Chainsaws Global Market Report 2024

The chainsaws market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.31 billion in 2023 to $4.73 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth observed in the historical period is attributable to factors such as rural and urban landscaping activities, fluctuations in raw material costs, the homeowner and do-it-yourself (DIY) market, industrial and commercial utilization, and user preferences.

The chainsaws market is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.07 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the dynamics of the supply chain, the emergence of new user segments, prevailing economic trends, market expansion initiatives, and adherence to regulatory compliance. Noteworthy trends expected during the forecast period encompass environmental regulations, a focus on user safety and ergonomics, the rise of battery-powered chainsaws, increased market competition, and heightened demand from professional users.

The anticipated growth in the chainsaw market is expected to be fueled by the escalating rate of deforestation. Deforestation, involving the removal of trees for agricultural, urban, or resource extraction purposes, has seen a significant surge. Chainsaws play a crucial role in deforestation activities, facilitating the swift and efficient felling of trees to clear land. A report by Global Forest Watch in November 2023 highlighted a notable increase in deforestation in the United States, with 46.5 million hectares of tree cover lost from 2001 to 2022, resulting in a 17% decrease in overall tree cover since 2000. This alarming trend underscores the environmental impact of heightened deforestation, contributing to 18.0 gigatons of CO₂e emissions. Consequently, the chainsaw market is poised for growth as deforestation rates continue to rise.

The chainsaw market is expected to witness growth driven by increased construction spending. Construction spending, representing the total investment in structures and infrastructure within a specific timeframe and geographic area, plays a pivotal role in driving demand for chainsaws. Chainsaws offer a cost-effective and versatile solution for cutting and shaping materials in various construction applications. In October 2023, the United States Census Bureau reported a substantial increase in total construction spending, reaching an estimated seasonally adjusted annual rate of $2,027.1 billion, marking a 0.6% growth compared to the revised September estimate. This growth is indicative of heightened demand for chainsaws in infrastructure development, residential construction, and manufacturing facilities. Thus, increased construction spending is set to propel the growth of the chainsaw market.

The chainsaw market is witnessing a notable trend with the introduction of innovative models featuring advanced technology. Companies in the chainsaw market are incorporating cutting-edge features into new models to maintain their competitive positions. In May 2023, Husqvarna Group, an industrial equipment company based in Sweden, launched the T540 XP Mark III, a professional-grade chainsaw catering to tree care professionals and arborists. This model is equipped with Auto-Tune 3.0 technology, providing simple start capabilities and ensuring optimal performance even in challenging conditions. The innovative features, including the X-Torq engine design and LowVib technology, enhance power output and reduce handling vibration, contributing to a more efficient user experience in forestry and related industries.

Major companies in the chainsaw market are strategically focusing on product innovations, particularly in the realm of new gas chainsaws, to gain a competitive edge.
