The market is analyzed with respect to different applications in industrial verticals, such as commercial, public transit, institutional sector, and residential. The market is mainly driven by rise in demand for commercial space and increasing investments in public transport projects, such as metro rails and airports. However, factors such as the requirement for frequent maintenance and the high energy consumption of escalators have the potential to limit the growth of the market.

In 2020, Asia-Pacific dominated the global escalators, in terms of revenue, accounting for around half the share of the escalators industry, followed by Europe and North America. Moreover, the market in Asia-Pacific region is growing with high CAGR, owing to rise in commercial real estate projects and metro rail projects across the globe.

Furthermore, on the basis of industry vertical, the others segment is anticipated to grow rapidly, with a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period, owing to rapid development of metro rails in emerging economies.

However, during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, various manufacturers in the escalators had to stop their business in countries, such as China, the U.S., and India. This break directly impacted sales of escalators manufacturing companies. In addition, the initial lockdowns significantly reduced construction activities in many developing countries, which negatively influenced the growth of the market. However, the resumption of construction activities and introduction of vaccines for coronavirus disease are anticipated to lead to re-opening of escalators companies.
