The Driving Factors for the Growth of Used Machinery Needs:
Cost-Effectiveness: Used machinery offers a significantly lower price point compared to new equipment, making it attractive to small and medium-sized construction firms and others seeking to manage capital expenditure.
Infrastructure Development: Increasing infrastructure projects globally in road, port, mining, and oil & gas construction drive the demand for both new and used equipment.
Aging Fleets: As construction fleets age, businesses seek cost-effective alternatives to new purchases.
Sustainability: The rise of sustainable practices encourages the reuse and resale of machinery.
Availability of Quality Used Equipment: An increasing availability of well-maintained and refurbished equipment enhances the appeal of the used market.
Rental Market Growth: The expanding rental market provides an alternative to purchasing, influencing the demand for used equipment as rental companies manage their fleets.
