Asphalt Paver Market Drivers and Opportunities
Increasing Urbanization with Government Investments in Highways Construction Drives Market Growth
According to the updated list of urban areas provided by the US Census Bureau in December 2022, the urban population in the US increased by 6.4% between 2010 and 2020. Urban areas have become denser, with an average population density rising from 2,343 in 2010 to 2,553 in 2020. The West region of the US remained the most urbanized region among the country's four census areas, with 88.9% of its inhabitants living in cities, followed by the Northeast region with 84.0%. According to the figures revealed by the United Nations, the percentage of the population that resided in cities was 80.8% in 2022 (i.e., accounting for 37.5 million people), which increased to 82% in 2023. Such a rapid increase in urban population has created a massive demand for road development in urban cities. Asphalt pavers play a major role in the road infrastructure development in the urban areas. Thus, the growing urbanization with significant investments in infrastructure rebuilding across the world bolsters the asphalt paver market growth.
Technological Advancements in Asphalt Pavers
Several major asphalt paver manufacturers have introduced new machines and systems that can optimize operations. The improved operating functions of the BOMAG paver BF 800 C-2 are intended to help improve performance and efficiency on the construction site. A key development is the new traffic light system that helps improve communication between the paver operator and the asphalt delivery truck driver. This ensures a consistent feed of material into the hopper and shows the truck driver when the hopper is full. In June 2021, BOMAG launched its new range of asphalt pavers, including BF 600 C-3, BF 600 P-3, and BF 800-C3, equipped with the latest technology. BOMAG's new generation of general-purpose and highway pavers is equipped with the company's Advanced Pave system, a digital co-pilot for pavers. It is being offered worldwide. The digital co-pilot allows the driver to control the machine efficiently, increasing productivity and enabling quick completion of asphalt paving. Control elements embedded in the armrests provide the operator with all important functions and thus enable greater concentration on the installation work. Thus, technological advancements integrated into the asphalt pavers are anticipated to create opportunities for the key players operating in the global asphalt pavers market during the forecast period.
