China's wood grabber industry has shown a steady growth trend in the past few years, and the market has continued to expand. According to the statistics of the China Construction Machinery Industry Association, the market size of wood grabber in China will be about 4.50 billion yuan in 2020, grow to 5.20 billion yuan in 2021, and further increase to 6 billion yuan in 2022. This growth trend is mainly due to the continued up the ante of domestic infrastructure investment and the rapid improvement of forestry mechanization level. From the perspective of regional distribution, East China and South China have become the main consumer markets for wood grabber due to rich forestry resources and developed economy, accounting for more than 60%. North China and Southwest China are close behind, with market shares reaching 18% and 15% respectively. Due to the limitations of climate conditions, the market size in the Northeast and Northwest regions is relatively small, but in recent years, with the deepening of forestry development, the growth rate has accelerated significantly
From the product structure, wheeled wood grabbers occupy a dominant position in the market due to their flexibility and adaptability, with a market share of 65% in 2022. Although the crawler wood grabbers are more expensive, they perform well in complex terrain operations, with a stable market share of around 30%. Small wood grabbers are popular in the rural market due to their easy operation and low cost, and the annual sales growth rate remains above 15%. It is worth noting that electric wood grabbers, as an emerging product, although the current market share is less than 5%, but driven by environmental protection policies, the sales volume will increase by more than 80% year-on-year in 2022, showing strong development potential.
In terms of industry competition landscape, the domestic wood grabber market is showing the characteristics of gradually increasing brand concentration. The combined market share of leading enterprises such as XCMG Sany Heavy Industry and Liugong has increased from 55% in 2020 to 62% in 2022. These enterprises have consolidated their market leadership through continuous technological innovation and channel sinking. Second-tier brands such as Shandong Lingong and Shanhe Intelligent have maintained stable growth in the market segment through differentiated competition strategies. Foreign brands such as Caterpillar and Komatsu mainly occupy the high-end market, but due to price factors, the market share has declined. It is worth noting that in recent years, a number of emerging enterprises focusing on intelligent wood grabber have emerged. Although the scale is small, the growth rate is amazing.
From the perspective of the industrial chain, fluctuations in upstream raw material prices have a significant impact on industry profits. From 2021 to 2022, rising steel prices have led to an increase in the production cost of wood grabbers by about 12%. Some enterprises have digested the cost pressure through product price increases and efficiency improvements. The automation level of the midstream manufacturing process continues to improve, and the automation rate of the production line of key enterprises has exceeded 70%. The downstream application field continues to expand. In addition to traditional wood processing, the application ratio of wood grabbers in new scenarios such as landscaping and post-disaster cleaning has increased year by year. After-sales services have become a new focus of competition. Leading enterprises have established a service network covering the whole country, and the average response time has been shortened to less than 24 hours.
Looking to the future, China's wood grabber market will maintain steady growth. According to industry forecasts, the annual compound growth rate of the market size will remain between 8% and 10% from 2023 to 2025. Driving factors include the continued development of the national forestry mechanization policy. It is expected that the forestry mechanization rate will increase to 65% by 2025. New urbanization construction will drive the demand for garden machinery and create new market space. Technological innovation will become the main driving force, and the application of intelligent control, remote monitoring and other technologies will enhance the added value of products. Environmental protection requirements are becoming increasingly strict, and the penetration rate of new energy wood grabber is expected to reach 15% in 2025. The development of the regional market is more balanced, and the growth rate in the central and western regions will be higher than the average level of the industry. Enterprises should focus on the intelligent upgrading of products, the improvement of the after-sales services system and the development of emerging markets to seize the development opportunities of the industry.
