The global Airport Ground Support Equipment market is carving out a fascinating trajectory, projected by MRFR to grow to USD 9.6 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.4 percent from 2024. This growth is not just a function of rising aircraft movements, but is underpinned by the surge in air passenger traffic, accelerated airport infrastructure investments, and a compelling shift toward more energy-efficient ground support equipment. MRFR’s analysis underscores that mobile GSE—vehicles and machinery that move around the airside—is poised to dominate, largely because of its operational flexibility and adaptability to the fast turnaround demands of modern airports.
In parallel, environmental consciousness is reshaping the market: MRFR highlights that the electric power-source segment of the airport ground support equipment market is gaining remarkable traction, as airports increasingly commit to greening their operations. The push for hybrid and electric GSE reflects more than regulatory compliance; it signals a structural shift in how airport operators envision ground handling efficiency and sustainability. Yet, MRFR also flags headwinds — the high upfront cost of electric GSE remains a barrier, and residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on airport revenues and passenger flows continue to play into procurement hesitations.
Regionally, the Asia-Pacific market emerges as especially dynamic. According to MRFR, this region is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, driven by burgeoning government investment in airport modernization, rising low-cost carrier traffic, and a growing appetite for cleaner, more efficient ground-support machinery. On the competitive frontier, MRFR points to a diverse and mature set of global players, from JBT Corporation and Textron (US) to MULAG Fahrzeugwerk (Germany), TLD (France), Mallaghan (UK), Tronair (US), and Shenzhen CIMC-TianDa (China), each jockeying to offer next-generation solutions in fixed and mobile equipment, assembly tools, and movement equipment.
Ultimately, MRFR’s research suggests that the airport ground support equipment market Growth stands at a crossroads: sustained growth potential propelled by air travel demand and green ambitions, but tempered by investment costs and operational complexities. As airports continue to evolve, the imperative for efficient, clean, and technologically advanced ground support equipment will only deepen, opening opportunities for manufacturers that can innovate and scale.
