Power Tools Market Size

According to a recent study by Global Market Insights Inc., the power tools market was estimated at USD 69.8 billion in 2024. The market is expected to grow from USD 74.3 billion in 2025 to USD 108.1 billion in 2034, at a CAGR of 4.3%.

• This growth is due to the growing construction, manufacturing, and automotive industries across the globe, which are facing an upsurge in demand for efficient and hi-tech tools. Developments in wireless power tool technology have dramatically changed construction and the manufacturing sector over the last few years. In April 2021, Bosch unveiled its inaugural Biturbo drill drivers. These cordless tools are distinguished by their high-performance motors, which can operate on both electric and battery power.One of the significant advancements has been the invention of high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, which provide extended runtimes, quicker recharges, and higher energy density than previous generations of batteries. These new batteries not only maximize working time but also decrease tool weight in general, enhancing user comfort and productivity.
   
• Additionally, brushless motor technology is also a standard feature in high-end cordless tools, providing more power, improved heat dissipation, and longer tool life with less maintenance required. In addition, connectivity has emerged as an important feature, with various cordless tools featuring Bluetooth or app-enabled connectivity. This enables customers to monitor performance, receive alerts for maintenance, and can even adjust tool settings through smartphones.
   
• In addition, intelligent electronics are being integrated into tools to automatically control speed and torque in terms of application requirements, delivering greater accuracy and safety. Taking collectively, these technologies have made cordless power tools a persuasive, high-performance option compared with traditional corded tools. Furthermore, local growth patterns are also defining the industry. As the demand for professional-level cordless systems is increasing, the DIY market, particularly in developed markets like Western Europe and North America, is projected to stagnate with a minimal year-on-year decline.Market growth is also restricted by volatility in the form of tariffs, inflation in raw material costs, and slowdown in construction activity in Western markets, leading entities like Stanley Black & Decker to redefine their manufacturing footprint in the face of geopolitical uncertainty.

Power Tools Market Trends

• The market is witnessing shift in consumer trends and technological advancements. One of the most notable trends is the rising demand for cordless tools, particularly those equipped with lithium-ion batteries. They are gaining popularity as they are handy, easy to use, and have longer battery life and are well-suited for professionals and beginners. For instance, Dewalt's Flexvolt battery automatically adjusts its voltage based on the attached tool. This automatic voltage adjustment eliminates the need for manual power adjustments when switching between various corded power tools.
   
• Furthermore, there has been a rise in home improvement and DIY in general, something that was further promoted during the post-pandemic era as people invested more in home improvement and refurbishment. This rise in DIY culture has further expanded the customer base for power tools even among homeowners and hobbyists, not only professionals.
   
• Another trend is the integration of smart and connected technologies into power tools. New tools integrate IoT connectivity, Bluetooth, and smart features such as tool tracking and diagnosis. These technologies are enhancing end-user experience, increasing efficiency, and providing useful data for individual consumers and companies, further influencing the market.
