Construction lubricants are chemical compounds used in machinery and equipment to lower friction between surfaces in contact, consequently lowering the amount of heat generated while the movement on the surface.
The main types of construction lubricants are hydraulic fluid, engine oil, gear oil, automatic transmission fluid (ATF), grease, and compressor oil. Hydraulic fluid functions as a medium for energy transfer or power transmission, as well as a lubricant and sealer. The fluids applied in various types of machinery, equipment, and across industries are called hydraulic fluids or hydraulic oils. Types of base oil for construction lubricants include synthetic oil and mineral oil. Construction lubricants are used in applications such as earthmoving equipment, material handling equipment, heavy construction vehicles, and others.

The construction lubricants market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $12. 97 billion in 2023 to $13. 95 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7. 6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to infrastructure boom, urbanization trends, industrialization, global economic growth.
The construction lubricants market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $18 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6. 6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to smart construction practices, sustainable construction, digitalization in construction equipment, emerging markets. Major trends in the forecast period include green lubricants, customized formulations, collaborations and partnerships, rise of synthetic lubricants, market expansion in asia-pacific.
A rise in construction and mining activities is significantly contributing to the growth of the construction lubricants market. Construction lubricant is a substance that lowers friction between surfaces in contact, consequently lowering the amount of heat generated while the movement on the surface. Lubricating oil is largely used in marine engines, automobiles, and other machinery. For instance, the mining and construction equipment industry in India is likely to grow by 15-20% in the calendar year 2021 and 5-10% in the year 2022. The first quarter of 2021 is estimated to have reported a strong equipment demand growth of 45-50%. These factors are expected to significantly drive the construction lubricants market.
An increasing population is expected to propel the growth of the construction lubricant market going forward. Population refers to the total number of individuals, whether humans or specific species, residing in a particular area or region at a given point in time. A larger population often leads to increased demand for infrastructure development. More people require more housing, commercial spaces, transportation networks, and other facilities. This surge in construction activity drives the demand for construction lubricants to keep machinery and equipment operating efficiently. For example, according to the United Nations, the global population could grow to around 8. 5 billion in 2030, 9. 7 billion in 2050, and 10. 4 billion in 2100 Additionally, according to the Congressional Budget Office, a US-based federal agency, the size of the US population will increase from 335 million people in 2022 to 369 million people in 2052. Therefore, the increasing population is driving the growth of the construction lubricant market.
The development of zinc-free (ashless) lubricants is a key trend in the construction lubricants industry. Construction lubricants are a type of lubricant used to reduce friction between moving parts or surfaces and to enhance the efficiency of the machines used in the construction industry. Lubricants with zinc levels that are too high have a history of leading to the corrosion of some metals, such as yellow metals, as they chemically attack the metal surfaces, along with environmental harm. Zinc-free lubricants, on the other hand, have an outstanding ability to prevent wear, rust, foam, oxidation, air, and water entrainment and provide excellent thermal stability. For instance, the formulation of the zinc-free lubricants reduces sludge by 85 to 99. 5%, retains more viscosity, reduces metal wear by 04-06%, and extends the useful service life to at least twice that of the ZDDP-based hydraulic oil.
Major companies operating in the construction lubricants market are innovating new technologies, such as a new line of lubricant solutions for electric vehicles, to increase their profitability in the market. A new line of lubricant solutions for electric vehicles refers to a specialized range of lubricants designed specifically to meet the unique needs of electric-powered vehicles (EVs). For electric vehicles (EVs), specialized lubricants are essential to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the various components. For instance, in August 2023, Petro-Canada, a US-based integrated energy company, launched the Lubricant Line for Electric Vehicles. These lubricants are formulated to enhance the performance and efficiency of various parts in an electric vehicle, such as bearings, gears, and other moving components. They help reduce friction, dissipate heat, and ensure the smooth operation of these parts, ultimately contributing to the overall efficiency and lifespan of the EV.
