    The market growth is driven by the trend of industrial automation to maximize efficiency. A strong presence of industrial automation companies that offer software, machine vision, and automation solutions will increase the market value. For instance, Automate Canada enables manufacturing automation through its members such as ABB Inc., Forcen Inc., Morrell Group Inc., and many more. Currently, manufacturers are using powerful machinery to replace human labor as automation simplifies operations & accelerates the industry's manufacturing process. Machines aid in easy transportation and storage of large volumes of products, thus lowering the overall time spent on material transportation and thereby enhancing profitability.

    The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the economic conditions of the U.S. and Canada in 2020. Supply chain disruptions and limited availability of electronic components to produce material handling equipment caused a decline in the North America material handling equipment market growth. The temporary closure of industrial enterprises in the region had a negative impact on the material handling equipment sector in the first half of 2020. With the gradual resumption of production activity in the second half of 2020, the industry regained traction. The increased adoption of e-commerce technologies created a considerable demand for modern material handling equipment in warehouses in 2021, prompting companies to offer high-quality products.

    North America Material Handling Equipment Market, By Application

    A major portion of the regional population is using various e-commerce platforms, thus spurring the North America material handling equipment market growth as it automates the movement of large product volumes in the warehouses. According to the U.S. Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce, the Q3 2021 e-commerce estimate increased by 6.6 % from the Q3 of 2020. Automation has been implemented in e-commerce facilities by deploying modern material handling equipment such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) to transport a case to a Goods-To-Operator (GTO) pickup station. This factor is encouraging companies to introduce new products with high dependability and long life.

    The expanding North America pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors are supporting the material handling equipment market expansion as it enables fast & efficient movement of heavy materials and large volumes of goods. The rising focus on on-time delivery of medicines by pharmaceutical manufacturers including Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co., and AbbVie Inc. in the U.S. is increasing the demand for material handling equipment for fast handling of products in manufacturing facilities. As pharmaceutical companies strive to keep their facilities clean, there will be an increased need for material handling equipment that can be readily dismantled and cleaned regularly.

    North America Material Handling Equipment Market, By Product

    Original equipment manufacturers are increasing their sales and market shares by selling their products through physical stores and online platforms.
