세계의 건설용 로봇 시장 전망(-2030년) : 제품 유형별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별 및 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Construction Robots Market is accounted for $394.25 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $853.92 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 15.4% during the forecast period. Construction robots are automated machines designed to assist with or fully execute tasks in construction projects. These robots enhance efficiency, precision, and safety by performing repetitive, labor-intensive, or hazardous tasks. By integrating advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computer vision, construction robots streamline processes, reduce human error, and contribute to faster project completion and lower operational costs.

According to Workplace Fatal Injuries Report 2022 and Health and Safety Executive reports from 2018 to 2021, construction industry accounted for 25% of all worker fatalities in 2022. N.C. Department of Labor also reported that construction workers suffered the most work-related fatalities in 2022 in U.S. state of North Carolina.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Urbanization and infrastructure development

Urbanization and infrastructure development drive the growth of the construction robots by increasing the demand for efficient, cost-effective, and timely construction solutions. As urban areas expand, the need for advanced infrastructure rises, necessitating the use of robots to meet tight schedules, improve safety, and enhance precision. Additionally, construction robots address labor shortages and reduce operational costs, making them essential in large-scale projects. These factors collectively propel the adoption and advancement of construction robots, fostering market growth.

Restraint:

Limited flexibility

Limited flexibility in construction robots arises from their specialization for specific tasks, making them less adaptable to the varied and dynamic nature of construction sites. This inflexibility hampers market growth by restricting robots' utility across diverse projects and reducing their appeal to contractors who need versatile solutions. High costs associated with these specialized robots further deter widespread adoption, as firms may hesitate to invest in technology that cannot handle multiple tasks.

Opportunity:

Supportive policies and funding for smart construction technologies

Supportive policies and funding for smart construction technologies provides financial incentives, grants, and subsidies that lower the adoption barrier for advanced technologies. Government initiatives and favourable regulations encourage innovation and investment in construction robotics. These policies foster research and development, leading to improved robot capabilities and increased market acceptance. Additionally, funding supports pilot projects and large-scale deployments, demonstrating the efficiency and benefits of construction robots, thereby driving market growth and technological advancements in the sector.

Threat:

Maintenance and potential repair expenses

Maintenance and potential repair expenses in construction robots arise due to their complex and sophisticated technology, frequent usage in harsh environments, and the need for regular servicing to ensure optimal performance. These costs can be substantial, including parts replacement, technical expertise, and downtime during repairs. Additionally, the potential for costly repairs may lead to concerns about the long-term viability and reliability of these robots, further hampering market expansion.

Covid-19 Impact

The covid-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of construction robots due to labor shortages and the need for social distancing on job sites. The emphasis on minimizing human contact and maintaining productivity despite restrictions highlighted the advantages of automation. Consequently, investment in robotics increased, driving technological advancements and broader acceptance. However, economic uncertainties and project delays initially posed challenges to market growth during the early stages of the pandemic.

The disaster response & reconstruction segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The disaster response & reconstruction segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth. Construction robots in disaster response and reconstruction applications are pivotal for their ability to operate in hazardous environments and aid in debris removal, structural inspection, and rebuilding efforts. They enhance safety for responders and accelerate recovery by automating tasks like demolition and material handling. These robots play a crucial role in restoring infrastructure swiftly and efficiently after natural disasters, ensuring communities can recover and rebuild effectively.

The public infrastructure segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The public infrastructure segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period. Construction robots are integral in public infrastructure projects, automating tasks such as excavation, concrete pouring, and bridge maintenance. They enhance project efficiency and safety by reducing labor-intensive work and minimizing human error. This technology not only improves infrastructure quality but also contributes to sustainable development goals by optimizing resource use and minimizing environmental impact.

Region with largest share:

The construction robots market in the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing rapid growth due to urbanization, infrastructure development, and labor shortages. Countries like China, Japan, and South Korea are leading the adoption of construction automation, driven by government initiatives and technological advancements. Investments in smart city projects and large-scale infrastructure developments further boost demand. The presence of major technology companies and increasing awareness of the benefits of construction robots contribute to the market's robust growth in the region.
