The Philippine construction equipment market has shown a steady growth trend in recent years, and the market size continues to expand. According to relevant data, the Philippine construction equipment market size in 2023 is estimated to be 8.10 thousand units by volume, and is expected to reach 10.35 thousand units by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate of 4.16%.
This growth trend is mainly due to the Philippine government's heavy investment in infrastructure construction. In order to meet the needs of the growing population and promote economic development, the Philippine government has actively promoted a series of infrastructure projects, including port expansion, rail line extension, road and highway improvement. For example, the "Build Better More" program, in which the government allocates $2.6 billion for network development projects to build new roads and improve existing ones, will greatly stimulate the demand for construction equipment.
In addition, the implementation of some specific projects has also provided strong support for the growth of the construction equipment market. For example, the construction of the Cebu-Mactan Intermodal Transport Hub (CIMTH), which includes a new passenger terminal, a cargo terminal and an elevated road connecting the airport to the Mactan-Cebu International Bridge, will drive significant demand for all types of construction equipment. La Mesa Parkways Project, the first phase of the North Luzon East Expressway (NLEE), a 19-km toll road designed to ease traffic congestion in northeast Manila while providing a more aesthetically pleasing route to destinations in Northeast Luzon, will also boost the construction equipment market.
In addition, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) will provide about $19 billion in funding for 12 projects in the Philippines to improve the tourism sector and economic competitiveness. These projects include initiatives in the National Capital Region and nearby provinces, which will further boost the growth of the construction equipment market.
Overall, the Philippine construction equipment market is expected to continue to grow in the next few years, with government investments and the advancement of infrastructure projects providing continued momentum to the market.
