The growth of the global tower crane market is closely linked to the overall construction industry. The increasing demand for residential and commercial buildings, as well as infrastructure projects such as bridges, dams, and railways, is driving the need for tower cranes. Rapid urbanization and population growth in emerging economies are particularly significant contributors to the demand for construction projects and subsequently tower cranes.

Modular and lightweight designs : There is a growing trend towards modular and lightweight tower crane designs. Modular tower cranes offer flexibility in terms of height and configuration, making them suitable for various construction projects. Lightweight tower cranes are easier to transport, assemble, and dismantle, reducing the logistical challenges associated with their use. These design trends cater to the demand for versatility, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment in different construction scenarios.

One of the top tower cranes exporting regions is Europe. Among the top contributors to the tower crane market are Germany, Italy, Spain, and France. Tower cranes are required for a sizable wind plant in Europe. As a result, it is anticipated that the demand for tower cranes would increase as wind capacity installations rise throughout Europe. Europe added 15.4 GW of new wind power capacity, a 27% increase from 2018. Currently, the area has 205 GW of wind energy capacity. With a total installed capacity of 15.4 GW, there have been significant fluctuating wind turbine installation trends in recent years.
