Overview of Report Findings
- Increasing Expansion of Airports Globally: Global airport infrastructure is expanding due to increased air passenger and cargo transport. In March 2023, Airports Council International (ACI Europe) announced that passenger traffic at the European airport network grew by more than 69% in January 2023, compared to January 2022. In March 2023, the transport company Fraport invested US$5.7 billion (€4 billion) to expand Frankfurt International Airport, Germany's main airport hub. The expansion is expected to be completed in 2026. With this project, air movements are expected to increase from 80 per hour in 2023 to 120 in 2026.
Governments are boosting their respective investments in existing airports. For example, the US Federal Aviation Administration announced US$1 billion in funding to improve the infrastructure of 99 airports. This funding was provided through President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Act of 2023. - Surging Automation in Warehouses: The global logistics and warehousing industries are experiencing an e-commerce boom, a manufacturing boom, increased consumption, and overall industrial expansion. However, supply chain complexity, inefficiencies, rising costs, and increased demand for rapid delivery present significant challenges.
The industry is looking to warehouse automation to address these difficulties and capitalize on the expansion. Adopting automation increases productivity, reduces labor costs, reduces errors, optimizes inventory management, and ensures profitability, allowing warehouses to handle larger volumes of goods more efficiently. The number of warehouses is increasing worldwide due to growing demand from the e-commerce sector, last-mile deliveries, and changes in consumer behavior. - Geographical Insights: In 2025, Asia Pacific led the market with a substantial revenue share, followed by North America and Europe. Asia Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
