Equipment top 50

摘要

The fall in global commodity prices and slowdowns in many emerging economies last year saw revenues for the world's 50 largest construction equipment manufacturers fall -16.2% to US$ 133 billion. This was the lowest revenues have been since 2009, when industry sales fell to US$ 109 billion at the depths of the global financial crisis, and it is also the sharpest year-on-year fall in revenues since those dark days. The most striking impact of this market trend was seen among China's largest construction equipment manufacturers. All of the Chinese companies in the Yellow Table fell down the rankings compared to their positions a year ago. In addition, some of those drops were among the heaviest falls for any company in the ranking -Shantui went down seven places to number 38 in this year's ranking, and Liugong slipped six places to number 22.
