Trenching Equipment Market: Segmentation

This research report includes detailed market segmentation by products, operating type, end-users and geography.

Chain trenchers are witnessing growing preference in performing large pipeline and construction excavation processes. They have widespread usage in digging wider trenches. One of the factors expected to increase preference for chain trenchers among users is these machines help to develop well-graded spoil, which can further be processed for reusage. Further, these earthmoving equipment can tackle mixed terrain ground conditions with ease, owing to their contoured earth teeth/ tungsten teeth combination, thereby producing flat-bottomed and smooth-sided trenches.

Trenchers are profoundly used for several small and large-sized projects, as their compactness has proven extremely useful in restrictive and narrow environments. In terms of shipment, the ride-on segment is expected to reach 18,686 units by 2025. Ride-on trenching equipment are considered a viable option for tackling heavy-duty tasks, including digging trenches for commercial irrigation systems. Moreover, these machines are gaining prominence among operators/contractors due to their ability to accomplish several challenging tasks. Ride-on trenchers are finding increasing demand from homeowners and landscape contractors as they are self-propelled.

The usage of trenching equipment in the agriculture segment enables contractors to reduce operational costs, thereby offering high-quality products at competitive prices. The deployment of agricultural and drainage trenchers proves to be an ideal option for the installation of irrigation and drainage systems. The oil & gas sector is one of the largest adopters of trenching equipment. The demand for trenchers in the oil & gas sector is primarily driven by the growth in investments in extraction services. Trench digger equipment designed for oil & gas applications is powerful, large, and is capable of trench in the toughest ground conditions. The installation of underground cables is largely carried out by trenching equipment.

Key advantages offered by these machines include the minimization of damages to cables and cost reduction. While the installation of underground cables needs specialized tools, telecommunication providers prefer these machines as they help in laying the lines underground, thereby minimizing the ecological damage. Changing demographics in the mining sector and the increasing demand for quality, affordable and safe services have led to the adoption of trenching equipment in the mining segment.
