The global construction equipment market continues to grow steadily, driven by urbanization, infrastructure investment, agricultural modernization, and increasing demand for efficient, compact machinery. While large excavators, cranes, and loaders still dominate major infrastructure projects, mini excavators have emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n In developed markets such as Europe and North America, mini excavators are widely used for residential construction, landscaping, utility installation, and renovation projects.
