2. Remarkable high in Norwegian market

Sales of construction equipment in Norway grew 23 per cent between 2013 and 2017 to reach 5,496 units. This far exceeded the previous high seen in the mid-2000s, but Off-Highway Research expects demand to stay at this impressive level over the medium term.

“Equipment demand has been primarily led by a strong and growing economy, public infrastructure investment, and the need to replace ageing equipment. Until 2014, construction activities related to the still booming oil sector also played a significant role. The rental sector is also continuing to expand but remains low by international standards,” said Off-highway Research’s new Country Analysis on Norway.

Many of the drivers which have lifted the market to new highs over the last five years are expected to remain in place over the coming years, sustaining equipment demand near current levels.
