Forklift Market by Application, Fuel, Tonnage, Class, and Region - Global Forecast to 2021

NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- "In order to meet stringent emission regulations by the European Commission and Environment Protection Agency, the forklift manufacturers are focusing on battery-electric forklifts."
The global forklift market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 1.93%, from USD 16.00 billion in 2016 to USD 17.61 billion by 2021. The market is expected to reach 1.5 million units by 2021 in terms of value. The fastest growing trend in the global forklift market is the battery operated forklift. The demand for battery-operated forklifts has increased because of their enhanced performance levels and greater productivity. In addition, battery-operated forklifts also provide emission control advantage and are more economical as compared to ICE industrial vehicles.

The paper industry, steel & iron industry, automotive industry, food and beverage industry, and others are the few examples of manufacturing industries where forklifts are being used. However, distribution segment is expected to lead the market by 2021 significantly due to increasing number of warehouses being set up across the regions.
