Global Construction Machinery Export Trends 2025: Aerial Work Platforms and Forklifts Lead the Market

In the first half of 2025, the global construction machinery export market has shown strong momentum, with Aerial Work Platforms (AWP) and Forklifts standing out as the fastest-growing categories. Supported by global infrastructure projects, logistics expansion, and rising demand for green equipment, both sectors are seeing robust international growth.
Export Highlights
- Aerial Work Platforms Export
Worldwide exports grew by more than 15% year-on-year. The demand for boom lifts, scissor lifts, and spider lifts is particularly strong in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Applications include construction, facility maintenance, airports, and ports. - Forklift Export
Forklifts remain the largest category in global equipment exports, with over 260,000 units shipped in the first six months of 2025. Electric forklifts and used forklifts for sale are increasingly popular due to e-commerce and warehouse modernization. - Cranes and Loaders Export
While some mature markets are slowing down, crane export and wheel loader export are still expanding in Belt-and-Road countries and across Africa.
Global Brand Competition
In the boom lift export and scissor lift export segment, JLG, Genie, Dingli, and Haulotte maintain leading positions. In the forklift export market, brands such as Toyota, Heli, Linde, and Mitsubishi continue to dominate. To stay competitive, manufacturers are offering CE-certified equipment, ANSI-compliant aerial work platforms, and eco-friendly solutions tailored to international buyers.
🛠 Industry Impact
- Green Energy Push: Lithium battery and hybrid-powered machines are becoming export priorities.
- Global Standards: CE, ANSI, and SASO certifications remain key to successful export.
- Digitalization: IoT-enabled machinery improves fleet management and remote monitoring, boosting customer confidence.
