Outdoor Power Equipment Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Equipment Type, By Functionalities, Power Source, Distribution Channel, End User and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Outdoor Power Equipment (OPE) Market is accounted for $30.46 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $53.57 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period. Outdoor Power Equipment refers to machinery and tools designed for outdoor tasks like lawn care, landscaping and maintenance. These include lawnmowers, trimmers, blowers, chainsaws and tillers. These tools aid in gardening, yard work, and landscaping activities, enhancing efficiency and convenience for outdoor maintenance and gardening tasks on residential, commercial or industrial properties.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising urbanization and lawn care trends

The outdoor power equipment market is propelled by increasing urbanization trends and a surge in lawn care preferences. Urban dwellers' growing interest in maintaining outdoor spaces, such as gardens and lawns, drives demand for efficient tools like lawnmowers and trimmers. As more people move to urban areas with limited garden sizes, compact and versatile equipment becomes essential, fostering innovation in smaller, efficient outdoor power tools to cater to urban lawn care needs, fueling market growth.

Restraint:

Seasonal demand and weather dependence

The industry faces fluctuations in demand based on seasonal changes and weather conditions. Demand peaks during specific seasons, like spring and summer, affecting sales and production planning. Additionally, adverse weather conditions, such as excessive rain or snow, can limit outdoor activities, impacting the need for outdoor power tools and machinery, leading to unpredictable sales patterns and inventory management challenges within the market.

Opportunity:

Development of electric and battery-powered equipment

The development of electric and battery-powered equipment presents a significant opportunity in the outdoor power equipment market. These innovations cater to the rising demand for eco-friendly, low-noise and emission-free alternatives. As environmental concerns grow and regulations become more stringent, the shift towards electric and battery-powered tools offers improved efficiency, reduced operational costs, and increased convenience. This transition aligns with the rising consumer preference for sustainable solutions, creating a favorable market landscape for these advanced equipment types.

Threat:

Rising labour costs and skilled workforce shortage

The increasing expense of labor-intensive tasks affects manufacturing and service costs, impacting product pricing and profitability. Additionally, a shortage of skilled workers hampers production, innovation and after-sales services, potentially delaying advancements and affecting overall market growth.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the market by causing supply chain disruptions and altering consumer behavior. Lockdown measures and economic uncertainties reduced consumer spending and demand for non-essential items, impacting sales of OPE products. Manufacturing and distribution faced challenges due to workforce limitations and logistical constraints. However, increased focus on home improvement activities during lockdowns partially offset declines, highlighting shifting trends in consumer preferences for outdoor maintenance.

The lawn mowers segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The lawn mowers segment is anticipated to lead the market due to the ubiquitous need for lawn maintenance. Increased focus on landscaping, coupled with the rising trend of home gardening and commercial landscaping services, drives the demand for efficient and versatile lawn mowers. Innovations in technology, such as battery-powered and robotic mowers, cater to diverse consumer needs, enhancing convenience and fueling the segment's growth in the forecast period.

The connected/smart segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The connected/smart segment in the market is projected to exhibit lucrative growth due to the integration of advanced technologies. Smart equipment incorporating IoT features, GPS tracking and remote monitoring capabilities offers enhanced functionalities, enabling users to optimize performance, track usage and remotely control operations. The growing preference for convenience, efficiency and real-time data analysis drives the rapid adoption of connected outdoor power equipment, propelling its expected high growth rate.

Region with largest share:

North America's dominance in the market is attributed to factors such as high disposable income and a strong culture of home and garden maintenance. Robust infrastructure, a penchant for innovative technologies and a large base of landscaping and gardening enthusiasts contribute to sustained demand. Furthermore, the presence of key market players and a well-established distribution network solidify North America's leading position in the outdoor power equipment (OPE) market.
