Hydraulic equipment refers to machinery or devices that use pressurized fluid to perform various tasks. This equipment works by applying liquid pressure, usually with the help of hydraulic cylinders to move pistons. These are primarily used to produce motion or force, which makes them an effective and adaptable instrument for a variety of industrial uses.
The main types of components included in hydraulic equipment are motors, pumps, cylinders, valves, filters, accumulators, transmissions, and others. A hydraulic motor is a mechanical actuator that produces a rotating shaft by converting hydraulic pressure and flow into torque and angular displacement. These are used for several applications, including mobile and industries, and are used by various end users, such as mining and construction, agriculture and mining, packaging, material handling, and others.

The hydraulic equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $45.21 billion in 2024 to $47.57 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to urbanization and industrialization, growing need for advanced agricultural machinery, increasing demand for material handling equipment, expansion of process industries, increasing integration of hydraulic systems into automated manufacturing processes.
The hydraulic equipment market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $55.58 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of construction industry, increasing demand for eco-friendly hydraulic solutions, growing demand for hydraulic equipment in the aerospace and defense industries, increasing adoption of electric vehicles, increasing demand for hydraulic equipment in the mining industry. Major trends in the forecast period include IoT integration, expansion of new manufacturing facilities, adoption of mechanized agricultural equipment, product innovation, higher investments.
The expanding construction industry is expected to propel the growth of the hydraulic equipment market going forward. The construction industry encompasses all activities related to the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of buildings, infrastructure, and other physical structures. Growth in the construction industry can be attributed to government spending on building projects, rising infrastructure investments, and stabilization in the real estate market. Hydraulic systems can produce immense force with relatively small components, making them ideal for heavy lifting, pushing, and pulling tasks required in construction, such as operating cranes, excavators, and bulldozers. For instance, in August 2023, according to a report published by the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based producer of official statistics, the estimated monthly construction output saw a 1.6% increase in volume in June 2023, attributed to rises in both new construction work (2.0%) and repair and maintenance activities (1.1%). The output of construction increased by 0.3% from Quarter 1 (January to March) 2023 to Quarter 2 (April to June) 2023. Therefore, the expanding construction industry is driving the growth of the hydraulic equipment market.
Major companies operating in the hydraulic equipment market are developing innovative products, such as energy-efficient hydraulic pumps, to better serve customers with advanced features and gain a competitive edge in the market. An energy-efficient hydraulic pump is a device designed to transfer mechanical energy into hydraulic energy while minimizing energy losses. For instance, in January 2024, Grundfos, a Denmark-based pump manufacturer, launched the SP 6-inch hydraulic pump for groundwater pumping. The SP 6-inch hydraulic pump stands out with its key features, including superior energy efficiency achieved through upgraded hydraulics, resulting in significant energy savings. It incorporates a high-efficiency permanent magnet motor, ensuring reliable performance while maximizing overall efficiency. Its robust stainless-steel rotor design, featuring a durable stainless-steel-clad canned rotor, ensures optimized operations and longevity. Additionally, the pump offers an expanded temperature range of up to 140°F, making it versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications.
In January 2024, Atlas Copco, a Sweden-based manufacturing company, acquired Kracht GmbH for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is expected to expand Atlas' portfolio within positive displacement pumps and further strengthen its position in the industrial pump segment. Kracht GmbH is a Germany-based manufacturer of hydraulic pumps primarily used in oil hydraulic systems.
