The shop equipment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The shop equipment market is forecast to grow to $188.48 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 9.4%.
Growth is driven by a focus on sustainable practices, eco-friendly manufacturing adoption, the growth of construction sectors, e-commerce proliferation, and increasing popularity of electric vehicles. Trends include the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies, growth of 3D printing, automation and robotics integration, IoT adoption, and smart equipment innovations.
The increasing trend of electric cars is set to pioneer growth in the shop equipment market. Electric cars, primarily driven by electricity and propelled by one or more electric motors, are gaining increased attention due to their environmental benefits, cost savings, and favorable government policies. Shop equipment is crucial in maintaining these electric vehicles in a safe and efficient manner, offering the required tools and equipment for repair, maintenance, and charging infrastructure. For example, the electric car market saw a significant growth as per the International Energy Agency, a French intergovernmental organization, reporting that sales surpassed 10 million in 2022 by March 2023. Moreover, the market share of electric cars from all new cars sold was 14% in 2022, indicating a big jump from roughly 9% in 2021. As such, the surging interest in electric cars is crucial for the shop equipment market.

Prominent businesses in the shop equipment marketplace are concentrating on generating novel products like mobile column lift adapters in an effort to increase the adaptability and productivity of maintenance procedures for electric vehicles and other modern cars. Mobile column lift adapters are flexible elements that connect to mobile column lifts, allowing them to raise vehicles of various designs and lifting points. For example, in August 2024, Rotary, a company based in the U.S. that provides vehicle service equipment, introduced the Rotary Flex MAX Linker - a device controlled remotely with a patent pending, designed to augment the application of mobile column lifts in the repair of heavy-duty vehicles. The Flex MAX Linker provides the ability for automotive technicians to connect and operate up to 18 Rotary Flex MAX mobile column lifts by using just one remote control. This product's goal is to increase the efficiency, versatility, and safety of lifting large-scale vehicles like heavy-duty trucks, multi-axle buses, coaches, and rail carriages.
