TELESCOPIC BOOM LIFT MARKET OVERVIEW

The global Telescopic Boom Lift Market size stood at USD 3.08 billion in 2025, growing further to USD 4.87 billion by 2034 at an estimated CAGR of 5.23% from 2025 to 2034.

The United States Telescopic Boom Lift Market size is projected at USD 1.00724 billion in 2025, the Europe Telescopic Boom Lift Market size is projected at USD 0.87664 billion in 2025, and the China Telescopic Boom Lift Market size is projected at USD 0.81781 billion in 2025.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the foil market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

An aerial work platform is a telescopic boom lift. It is typically used for jobs that demand extended reach and maximum range, and its axel may rotate 360 degrees. During aerial operations, the lift can travel automatically at a maximum work height of 40 to 80 feet. Telescopic boom features such as an active oscillating axel system, dual fuel or diesel engine options, 360-degree continuous turntable rotation, platform rotators, out-and-up articulating jib options, powerful driving force, and large load capacity, among others, are increasing its popularity among end users. Strong demand, a solid backlog, and increased utilisation are just a few of the words manufacturers have used to describe the global expansion of the telescopic boom lift market.

KEY FINDINGS

  • Market Size and Growth: USD 3.08 billion in 2025, growing further to USD 4.87 billion by 2034 at an estimated CAGR of 5.23% from 2025 to 2034.
  • Key Market Driver: Rising construction and infrastructure activity is driving demand — North America alone accounted for ~51.5% share of the boom-lift market in 2024 according to industry analysis.
  • Major Market Restraint: Safety incidents remain material — IPAF recorded 33–41 reported fatalities in its 2023 safety dataset , highlighting operator-safety and reporting pressures on the market.
  • Emerging Trends: manufacturers are announcing electric/EV variants and all-electric rough-terrain models at major shows (multiple OEM launches recorded in 2024–2025).
  • Regional Leadership: North America remains the largest regional market (holding ~50%+ share for boom lifts in 2024)
  • Competitive Landscape: The market is concentrated among global OEMs and diversified equipment groups — major manufacturers operate dozens of production sites and dealer networks spanning 50–140 countries.
  • Market Segmentation: Telescopic boom lifts are commonly split by reach class, powertrain , and end-use, many reports show the boom-lift category representing the largest product slice inside AWPs.
  • Recent Development: OEMs introduced several all-electric and low-emissions models at Bauma 2025 and other shows; for example, Tadano announced a new fully-electric rough-terrain model for North America in Oct 2024.

COVID-19 IMPACT

The COVID-19 Underlying Condition Crippled the Market Growth

Beginning in 2021, the COVID-19 disease spread rapidly around the world, infecting untold large numbers of individuals and adversely affecting the industries in which the affected workers worked. In the impacted areas, the authorities implemented foot restrictions and a work suspension on a global scale. Other than the groups who provide medical supplies and life support, activities have been severely impacted. The industry growth from the affected year-2021 will shift significantly on a brighter side as the global economy recovers. It is forecasted for the telescopic boom lift market share to grow potentially in the coming years.

LATEST TRENDS

The Progressing Self-Leveling Boom Lift to Augment the Market Growth

"There is a strong emphasis on efficiency and enabling equipment users to accomplish more with less, in smaller locations, under strict schedule and financial constraints, and in a way that is least detrimental to the environment," Hoover adds. "Technology and the rate at which it advances play a part in doing this. For example, very versatile machines are gaining popularity. The JLG 670SJ self-leveling boom lift, the first of its kind, is a prime example of this." The 670SJ has all of the normal functions of a telescopic boom lift, but it can also self-level on slopes up to 10-degrees. It is expected that in many cases, this will eliminate the need for cribbing and grading of the ground before work can begin.

  • Electrification uptake: Tadano and other OEMs showcased first fully electric rough-terrain/boom variants in late-2024/2025 trade announcements, indicating at least multiple OEM product launches toward battery power since 2024.
  • Rental utilisation rebound: IPAF rental reports and market commentary noted rental utilisation recovering in 2023–2024, with rental markets covered across dozens of countries and rental utilisation trending upward after pandemic lows.

DRIVING FACTORS

The Technological Innovations to Stimulate the Market Growth

Augmented reality (AR) technology can help make machine selection more intuitive by allowing users to place "to-scale" 3D machine models in the actual work environments where the boom lifts will be used, which can help determine if the specific machine can be used in the space it will need to manoeuvre.

Virtual reality (VR) technology will aid in the advancement of boom lift operator training by allowing learners to increase controls familiarisation and practise operating equipment long before stepping foot inside a physical machine.

Electronic detection systems, for example, can assist make boom lift operators more aware on the job site by providing a greater feel of their immediate surroundings, so boosting the protection of people and property.

Rising Skyscrapers Constructions  to Drive Up the Market Demand

The gradual expansion in the number of people living in cities has resulted in the construction of skyscrapers, which has increased demand for telescopic boom lifts. Because of their tiny size and simplicity of handling and accessibility, these lifts have acquired appeal in skyscraper building. Telescopic boom lift is an excellent alternative for skyscraper construction, where it is used to carry employees, tools, and materials to extended heights to complete job requirements. According to Coherent Market Insights, the total number of 200-meter-plus buildings worldwide reached 1,319 in 2017, an increase of 12.3% from 2016.

  • Construction demand: Industry analyses indicate boom lifts drive a majority of AWP unit demand, with boom lifts representing >50% of the AWP market mix in 2024 market breakdowns.
  • Infrastructure programs: Regional infrastructure programmes (notably in North America and APAC) are cited by equipment associations as increasing unit deployments — market reports and association notes point to double-digit volume increases in equipment procurement cycles in several key national markets .

RESTRAINING FACTORS

The High Pricing of the Machine Can Alter the Market Growth

End customers of telescopic boom lifts prefer to keep their existing machines and avoid investing in new machines due to their high cost. Furthermore, due to the high cost of telescoping boom lifts, end customers prefer to rent them rather than purchase them. Renting a telescopic boom lift is a more cost-effective option because it allows consumers to access an entire fleet of machines rather than being limited to a single model. Hence, the high prices is hindering the telescopic boom lift market growth.

  • Safety & incident reporting: IPAF’s safety reporting showed 41 reports / 33 fatalities in 2023 and subsequent year reporting changes, underlining operator-safety constraints that can slow adoption/usage.
  • Access to trained operators: Industry bodies (IPAF/AEM) continue to emphasise training — IPAF training and rental market notes show training uptake must increase across tens of thousands of operators annually to match fleet growth.
