Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025 - 2037

Vertical Lift Module Market size was over USD 1.69 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to reach USD 5.31 billion by the end of 2037, growing at around 9.2% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of vertical lift module is assessed at USD 1.81 billion.

The growth of VLMs will be fueled by the expansion of the retail industry. Warehouse services, which mainly rely on vertical lift modules, are growing along with retail. Ahold Delhaize USA and Americold will construct two fully automated frozen warehouses, it was announced in May 2020. The goal of the initiative is to boost cold-storage capacity by 24 million cubic feet, or 500,000 square feet, by constructing the two frozen facilities in collaboration with Americold. By 2020, e-commerce's percentage of retail sales is expected to jump from 16% to 19%, according to UNCTAD.

The strict government rules for improving workplace safety are also a significant component driving the market. Workers must wear safety fall protection, regardless of the fall distance, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Act's amended criteria. Because of this, worker safety—which deals with preventing any accidents or incidents—becomes crucial, which increases the use of vertical lift modules (VLM). According to ILO estimates, about 2.3 million men and women worldwide die from work-related illnesses or accidents each year, or more than 6000 people per day. Each year, there are over 160 million cases of work-related disease and 340 million occupational accidents worldwide.

Vertical Lift Module Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Increasing Focus on Industrial Automation- During the predicted period, the growth of industry 4.0 has greatly accelerated the trend towards industrial automation. The sales of vertical lift modules have dramatically increased as a result worldwide. The market is expected to grow quickly over the next several years as a result of the benefits provided by vertical storage systems. The manufacturing sector will be most affected by automation, which has the potential to automate about 64% of all manufacturing processes worldwide. By automating 64% of manufacturing operations, the globe could save 749 billion working hours.
  • Continuous Innovation in Vertical Lift Modules- Strict security and control procedures are typical in the automotive sector. To prevent theft and preserve privacy, some of the parts and tools need to be stored properly and securely, and priceless assets need to be guarded and kept in a secure location. A total of 38,90,114 passenger vehicles were sold overall, up from 30,69,523. In comparison to the prior year, sales of passenger cars climbed from 14,67,039 to 17,47,376, utility vehicles from 14,89,219 to 20,03,718 and Vans from 1,13,265 to 1,39,020 units in FY-2022–23 in India.
  • Vertical Lift Modules Are Being Adopted Quickly in The Automotive Sector- Strict security and control procedures are typical in the automotive sector. To prevent theft and preserve privacy, some of the parts and tools need to be stored appropriately and securely, and significant assets need to be guarded and kept in a secure location.  In 2022, the US auto sector is anticipated to sell 13.75 million cars and light trucks. In 2022, there were 290.8 million registered automobiles in the country.

Challenges

  • Expensive Vertical Lift- Pricing patterns suggest that the high cost of vertical lift modules is limiting industry growth. Costs for vertical lift modules are very high, which drives up overall business costs. The acquisition of brand-new vertical lift modules would demand a very high starting cost.
  • Lack of Qualified Personnel
  • The Availability of Second-Hand or Used Vertical Elevators.
