Hand tools represent a set of indispensable, manually operated power equipment and devices that are not powered by electricity, motor, or other energy sources. Usually manufactured from the heat and forging treatment methods, some commonly used hand tools include hammers, wrenches, cable cutters, knives, scissors, screwdrivers, pliers, saws, clamps and drills. These devices assist in shaping the object into the desired form by relying on mechanical strength and performing various manual operations, including forging, filing, chopping, and sawing. Apart from this, hand tools are cost-effective, compact, and lightweight, due to which they find extensive application in various industries. At present, they are mainly classified into laying, striking, metal cutting, holding, sharpening and grinding tool categories.
The increasing number of construction activities, along with the rising need for repair and maintenance operations across establishments are primarily driving the hand tools market growth. This is further supported by rapid urbanization, especially in the emerging economies, and the implementation of various policies by governments of several countries promoting infrastructure development, including roads, airports, and energy utilities. In line with this, the rising demand for portable and lightweight equipment for repairing automobiles has further facilitated the widespread adoption of multiple hand tools in the automotive sector. This, in turn, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Additionally, continuous technological advancements and the introduction of effective and contemporary hand tool kits with rust preventive coatings are contributing to the market growth. Moreover, the emerging trend of do-it-yourself (DIY) practices, particularly during the global outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic and the consequent implementation of mandatory lockdowns, has augmented the extensive deployment of hand tools to construct, repair and maintain various objects, which is supporting the market growth. Apart from this, strategic collaborations amongst key players for manufacturing multi-functional hand tools that enable a single tool to perform several operations, along with their easy availability on various distribution channels are creating a positive outlook for the market.
