Construction Robotics Market Report 2026

The construction robotics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.55 billion in 2025 to $7.79 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to labor shortages in construction, safety concerns on job sites, demand for faster project delivery, growth in urban infrastructure, need for precision construction.

The construction robotics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.39 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to smart city development, adoption of autonomous construction sites, rising infrastructure investments, digital transformation of construction, productivity improvement initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of robotic demolition systems, growing use of automated bricklaying solutions, expansion of construction 3d printing robots, increased deployment of inspection and surveillance robots, integration of robotics in finishing operations.

The growth in residential construction is expected to drive the expansion of the construction robotics market in the coming years. The residential sector includes areas designated for living spaces, such as homes and apartments. Increased construction in this sector is driven by higher productivity, labor shortages, enhanced safety, and reduced construction time and costs. Construction robots ensure uniformity and consistency in their tasks, maintaining construction standards while improving efficiency, safety, and overall quality in residential projects. For example, in March 2024, the Australian Bureau of Statistics reported 30,992 private new dwellings in 2023, marking a 3.7% rise from December and a 14.6% increase since March 2023. Additionally, private and other residential completions reached 14,844 dwellings, up 5.6% compared to December 2023. Consequently, the rise in residential construction is fueling growth in the construction robotics market.

The construction robotics market is being shaped by advanced innovations, such as rebar-installing robots, which enhance automation, efficiency, and precision in construction tasks while reducing labor-intensive work. Rebar-installing robots are specialized machines that automate the placement and securing of steel reinforcing bars (rebar) in concrete structures, improving safety and productivity in modern construction projects. For instance, in March 2023, Advanced Construction Robotics (ACR), a US-based company, launched IronBOT, the first robot specifically designed to lift, carry, and place rebar. IronBOT supports construction crews by handling the physically demanding task of rebar installation, positioning bundles in both transverse and longitudinal orientations without requiring heavy lifting from workers.

In January 2023, Built Robotics, a US-based startup specializing in automating construction equipment through innovative software and hardware solutions, acquired Roin Technologies for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to accelerate Built Robotics’ roadmap for automated construction equipment. Roin Technologies is a US-based manufacturer of construction robots.

The construction robotics market consists of revenues earned by entities by providing material handling, inspection, and monitoring. The market value includes the value of related goods sold by the service provider or included within the service offering. The construction robotics market also includes sales of robotic arms, collaborative robots, and material-handling robots. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.

The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD unless otherwise specified).

The revenues for a specified geography are consumption values that are revenues generated by organizations in the specified geography within the market, irrespective of where they are produced. It does not include revenues from resales along the supply chain, either further along the supply chain or as part of other products.
