The Asia Pacific truck loader crane market was severely affected in 2020 due to COVID-19 transmission. Significant virus spread in various regional component supplier & crane supplier countries, such as India, China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan, has resulted in the enforcement of stringent lockdown. Disruptions in the supply chain and shutdown of manufacturing facilities have adversely impacted the global production of truck loader cranes. However, the market is anticipated to experience significant growth in 2022 owing to considerable government investments in infrastructure development.

The shifting focus of construction companies toward rental companies for cost minimization will create a favorable environment for the Asia Pacific truck loader crane market demand.

Diamond, owned by established rental construction equipment players including Kanamoto, Nikken, Nishio Rent, and Aktio, will assist SmartEquip to enhance its market share in the region.
