Increasing technological developments and innovations in the field of aerial work platforms are providing a positive outlook to the market. Growing R&D investments by market leaders to integrate advanced technologies including Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to provide features such as emergency lowering, smart control panels are propelling the scissor lift market share. For instance, in December 2019, Haulotte Group reported investments of approximately USD 8.3 million in R&D activities for the development of innovative products.
One of the major market factors restricting the market growth is the high initial cost of this equipment. Integration of high-quality critical components and pneumatic parts in scissor lift contributes to their high cost of purchase. Moreover, the tendency to repair and reuse existing access platforms due to budget constraints in small and medium-scale projects is challenging industry growth. However, market players are focusing on reducing the production costs through economies of scale and vertical integration strategies to cater to the high industry demand.
The scissor lift industry is anticipated to witness slow growth due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The pandemic has severely impacted the global economy due to restrictions on trade and sealing of international borders of several countries across the globe. This has led to a shortage of raw materials, impacting the production capability of scissor lift manufacturers. Additionally, restrictions on movement and social distancing measures are expected to hamper industry growth. Increasing financial insecurities among industry players will further impact the market size in 2020.
