Ongoing automation and technological improvements in the market such as the introduction of robotic systems and conveyors and the increasing demand for automated products, such as automated guided vehicles automated conveyors, and robotic systems, are expected to boost the industry growth.
The material handling equipment enhances industrial operations, ensures timely material supply, and reduces labor requirements. In addition, increasing requirements of manufacturers for optimum resource utilization and surging concerns over warehouse downtime are expected to fuel the growth of the market.
