Truck Mounted Crane Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity and Forecast, 2020-2030F

The Truck Mounted Crane Market was valued at USD 13.46 Billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 21.10 Billion by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 7.62%. The global truck-mounted crane market is experiencing significant growth due to increasing infrastructure development, industrial expansion, and rising demand for efficient material handling solutions across various sectors. Truck-mounted cranes are widely used in construction, logistics, utilities, mining, and oil & gas industries, offering high mobility, flexibility, and lifting capabilities. The market is driven by the need for cost-effective and time-efficient lifting solutions, reducing reliance on multiple machines and minimizing operational downtime. The integration of advanced technologies, such as telematics, automation, and IoT-enabled cranes, is further revolutionizing the industry, enhancing safety, efficiency, and remote monitoring capabilities.

Key Market Drivers

Rapid Infrastructure Development and Urbanization

The growing emphasis on infrastructure development across developed and emerging economies is a primary driver for the truck-mounted crane market. Governments worldwide are investing heavily in smart cities, transportation networks, and commercial buildings, increasing demand for mobile and efficient lifting solutions. For example, in China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025), the country allocated USD4.2 trillion to infrastructure projects, significantly boosting construction activities. Similarly, India plans to spend USD1.4 trillion under the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) by the end of 2025, leading to heightened demand for truck-mounted cranes in road, bridge, and metro rail projects. Additionally, the European Union’s euro 750 billion (USD 808.78 billion) COVID-19 recovery fund includes substantial allocations for infrastructure modernization, driving crane deployment across member states.

Key Market Challenges

High Cost of Acquisition and Ownership

One of the biggest challenges in the truck-mounted crane market is the high cost of purchasing and maintaining these machines. Truck-mounted cranes require substantial capital investment, often reaching hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on the lifting capacity, boom length, and technological features. Beyond the initial cost, businesses must bear recurring expenses such as insurance, fuel, and maintenance. Regular servicing, replacement of hydraulic components, and compliance with evolving safety regulations add to the financial burden. Many small and medium-sized enterprises find it difficult to invest in these cranes, leading them to rely on rental or leasing options, which may not always align with project needs.

Key Market Trends

Growing Demand from the Infrastructure and Construction Sector

The rising number of large-scale infrastructure projects worldwide is fueling the demand for truck-mounted cranes. Governments are investing heavily in transportation networks, urban development, and renewable energy projects, driving the need for heavy lifting equipment. In countries like China, India, and the United States, massive investments in roads, bridges, and high-rise buildings have led to increased adoption of truck-mounted cranes due to their versatility and mobility.

The construction sector prefers these cranes for their ability to handle diverse lifting tasks with minimal setup time. Additionally, the expansion of smart cities and mega projects such as airports, railways, and industrial complexes further contributes to market growth. For example, in 2023, the U.S. government announced significant funding for infrastructure development, increasing demand for advanced lifting solutions. The construction industry’s reliance on efficient material handling and lifting equipment continues to boost the adoption of truck-mounted cranes, positioning them as essential assets in infrastructure development.
