Flatbed Semi-Trailer Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The rapidly growing transportation and logistics industry is notably driving the flatbed semi-trailer market growth, although factors such as high maintenance cost may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the flatbed semi-trailer industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Flatbed Semi-Trailer Market Driver
The rapidly growing transportation and logistics industry is one of the key drivers supporting the flatbed semi-trailer market growth. Most companies rely on external logistics companies to reduce their investment in vehicle fleets, miniaturization, and availability of different types of containers, tanks, and flatbeds, depending on their needs. On top of that, the significant expansion of e-commerce activities has increased the reliance of e-commerce companies on logistics service providers to ensure the transportation of goods through warehouses and distribution hubs. For example, logistics companies are increasingly dependent on forwarding companies for less than truckload (LTL) and full truckload (FTL) due to their diversity in terms of load capacity. In addition, trailers have the lowest transportation costs per ton per km compared to rigid trucks, further improving their acceptance in logistics operations. Considering these factors, the market in focus is expected to grow during the forecast period.
Key Flatbed Semi-Trailer Market Trend
The increasing demand for semi-trailers in emerging economies is one of the key flatbed semi-trailer market trends fueling the market growth. The growth of the global flatbed semi-trailer market is highly dependent on the sales of semi-trailers across the globe. The major demand for semi-trailers is expected to come from emerging economies in APAC, South America, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe during the forecast period. Increasing manufacturing and construction activities in these countries would increase the demand for transportation and logistics. The rise in manufacturing activities in these countries is backed by the robust GDP growth forecasts made for them during the forecast period. Therefore, these factors will have a positive impact on the demand for semi-trailers, which will drive market growth during the forecast period.
Key Flatbed Semi-Trailer Market Challenge
The high maintenance cost is one of the factors hindering the flatbed semi-trailer market growth. The average service life of a new trailer is about 15 years, with proper maintenance. However, car trailers come with air suspension and are more costly than traditional trailers. Maintenance costs will increase if the suspension is used for more than three years. Also, trailer tires have an average lifespan of 25,000 to 50,000 miles. Hence, changing tires further increases vehicle maintenance costs. Meanwhile, refrigerated trailers are equipped with a number of components that require regular maintenance, such as compressors, condensers, and evaporators, which increases maintenance costs. Such factors will limit the market growth during the forecast period.
This flatbed semi-trailer market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.
