Global Rigid Dump Truck Market 2017-2021

Overview of the global rigid dump truck market

Technavio’s research analysis on the global rigid dump truck market has identified the rising demand for precious metals as one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on this market’s growth in the coming years. There is a high demand for precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and diamond is mainly due to the rise in the disposable incomes among the middle-class urban population from developing countries such as India and China. In addition to the usage of these metals for jewelry, these metals are also great investment options. These metals also have great importance in other industries due to their properties, such as corrosion resistant, good electrical conductors and are the least reactive metals. This will raise the demand for precious metals that in turn will lead to increased mining activities driving the global rigid dump truck market. Our market research analysts predict that this market will register a revenue of more than USD 4.2 billion by 2021.

The integration of IoT in mining trucks for remote monitoring is one of the key trends that will contribute to the market’s growth in the forthcoming years. The implementation of remote monitoring systems with global positioning systems (GPS) will lead to high accuracy and improved efficiency with lesser human intervention. This in turn, will enhance the performance of rigid dump trucks. Moreover, with the availability of real time data, companies can also monitor idle time and history of work and also identify malfunctioning in these trucks.
