Market drivers

Rising construction activities to spur the global door drives market demand

Even when the current breakout of the pandemic has stalled a majority of worldwide projects, the global construction sector continues to grow at a significant rate. Governments' relaxing of restrictions and infusions of economic aid in economic packages to stimulate demand and the economy are likely to re-ignite the market. On the other hand, the construction industry has a positive long-term prognosis and is predicted to increase faster than global GDP in the future years.

According to Oxford Economics, the global construction industry is predicted to increase at an annual rate of roughly 84%, reaching a value of USD 15.6 trillion by 2030. Countries like the United States, China, India, and Indonesia will be at the forefront of the sector's expansion. Door drives are required for many types of doors such as swing, sliding, folding, and revolving in the construction of hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, stores, office buildings, hospitals, care homes, schools, theatres, and concert halls.

During the assessment period, positive growth in the building industry will translate to growth in the door drives market.

Market restraints

High cost to hamper global door drives market growth

Due to automatic doors' functionality, components, and performance, automatic doors are more expensive than manual doors. Existing manual doors can also be quickly automated using the door drives setup. The cost of switching from a manual to an automatic setup, on the other hand, is high. Higher automation prices may operate as barriers to entrance in transitional economies like China, India, and Indonesia.

Raw material costs fluctuate, and trade disputes significantly impact the cost of raw materials and thus the final prices of door drives. Furthermore, the global pandemic has delayed international trade and imposed severe constraints on the global economy. Consumers have put off large purchases for the time being and have become more cautious with their spending, potentially affecting the market growth. High cost is the major factor that is negatively affecting the door drives market growth.

What are future opportunities in door drives market

Lucrative opportunity from economies in transition

The Asia-Pacific region is expanding rapidly and is the world's largest in terms of both geographical area and population. The region offers plentiful natural resources and easy access to low-cost labor, making it a desirable location for foreign direct investment (FDI).

Furthermore, the establishment of multiple Special Economic Zones, each with its own set of tax perks and compensations, lures foreign corporations to invest in the various transitioning economies. The construction industry in the Asia-Pacific area is expected to be one of the most dynamic in the coming decades, and it is critical to the region's growth.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, after removing price factors, the country's urban and rural per capita income increased by 5% and 6.2% in real terms, respectively, demonstrating income development in rising economies. Furthermore, due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, construction and remodeling activities in this region have increased, resulting in a boom in steel demand. Infrastructure development and the need for power are increasing in countries such as India.
