The fire truck market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.89 billion in 2023 to $7.3 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The historic growth of the fire truck industry can be attributed to several factors, including the expansion of urban areas and infrastructure, the implementation of strict fire safety regulations, the growth of industrialization and manufacturing, the increased population density with the construction of high-rise buildings, and a focus on preparedness for natural disasters.
The fire truck market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.84 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The forecasted growth in the fire truck industry can be attributed to various factors, including the implementation of smart city initiatives, heightened awareness of environmental concerns and wildfire risks, upgrades in emergency response infrastructure, and the ongoing renewal and modernization cycles. Additionally, major trends in the forecast period include the adoption of alternative propulsion systems, advanced telematics for efficient fleet management, a focus on remote control and autonomous capabilities, and the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), with customization tailored for both urban and rural environments.
The fire truck market is anticipated to experience substantial growth due to an upsurge in fire hazards and emergencies. Fire hazards encompass any conditions or events capable of starting a fire or heightening the risk of one. Simultaneously, fire emergencies denote situations posing threats to life, causing severe injuries or property loss. Firefighters rely on firefighting instruments such as hoses and nozzles mounted on fire trucks to combat these hazards by directing firefighting agents, such as water, towards them. For instance, statistics from the National Interagency Coordination Center in September 2023 revealed a 12.4% increase in reported wildlife fires in Washington and Texas, rising from 44,263 in 2021 to 49,753 in 2022. Additionally, data from the National Fire Protection Association in October 2022 illustrated a surge in the US, with 1,353,500 fire emergencies and 3,800 civilian deaths in 2021, an 8.5% increase from 2020's 3,500 deaths. This escalating number of fire hazards and emergencies is a driving force behind the fire truck market's growth.
The fire truck market is set to be significantly boosted by the surge in infrastructure development. Infrastructure development encompasses various projects spanning residential, commercial, industrial, and public facilities, along with transportation networks and utilities. As urban areas expand and populations increase, the risk of fires and emergencies amplifies. This elevates the need for fire trucks and emergency response capabilities to safeguard lives and property. Notably, the World Bank reported a substantial rise in private sector infrastructure commitments, reaching $91.7 billion for 263 projects in April 2023, marking a 23% increase compared to 2021. Hence, the upswing in infrastructure development stands as a significant catalyst driving the fire truck market's growth trajectory.
The fire truck market faces a challenge stemming from high initial costs and substantial capital requirements in manufacturing, potentially limiting its growth during the forecast period. These elevated upfront expenses create barriers for new entrants and smaller companies, acting as a restraining factor. For example, as noted by Storable in September 2022, the pricing of ladder fire trucks can vary based on factors such as size and additional features, significantly influencing overall costs. Consequently, the high initial costs and capital demands present obstacles hindering the fire truck market's expansion.
Leading companies in the fire truck market are dedicated to introducing innovative products, such as hybrid systems, aimed at delivering dependable customer service. Hybrid vehicle systems combine an internal combustion engine (ICE) with an electric motor and battery, utilizing ICE for high-speed driving and the electric motor for low-speed propulsion and acceleration. For instance, in June 2022, Scania AB, a Sweden-based commercial vehicle manufacturer, launched a hybrid solution for airport fire trucks (ARFF). This groundbreaking system boasts a 16-liter, up to 770hp combustion engine paired with a 380hp E-machine, facilitating faster response times and environmentally conscious operations. The turn-key Scania solution encompasses the battery, E-machine, combustion engine, and associated components, enabling the vehicles to operate in hybrid or zero-emission modes. Collaborative functioning of the E-machine and combustion engine grants the vehicle a remarkable 1150 horsepower, ensuring rapid acceleration from 0 to 80 km/h and swift arrival at crash sites, surpassing the performance of standard vehicles.
In June 2022, Oshkosh Corporation, a prominent US-based manufacturer specializing in fire and emergency vehicles, completed the acquisition of Maxi-Metal Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition aims to bolster the synergies between Pierce and Maxi-Metal, fostering improved collaboration and bolstering sales and distribution capabilities within Pierce's extensive North American network. Oshkosh foresees substantial benefits from leveraging Maxi-Metal's specialized expertise and forward-thinking approach, particularly in expanding their collective presence across the Canadian market. Maxi-Metal Inc. is recognized as a Canada-based manufacturer renowned for crafting custom fire trucks and utility vehicles.
