In 2022, the global forklift battery market is valued at US$ 23.5 billion and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 6.6% CAGR over the 2022-2032 forecast period, according to a new market study by Fact.MR.

The market is expected to be driven by increasing industrialization, rapid expansion of the e-Commerce industry, growing warehousing activities, increasing focus on sustainability, and advancements in forklift battery technologies. Growing use of electric forklift trucks and other electric material handling equipment is expected to bolster forklift battery demand over the next ten years.

Forklift battery vendors are focusing on collaborations, partnerships, and mergers to enhance their market presence and increase revenue generation capacity.

In March 2022, Exide Industries Ltd., a leading battery manufacturer, entered into a collaborative agreement with SVOLT Energy Technology Co. Ltd. Through this collaboration, Exide will use SVOLT's licensed technology to manufacture lithium-ion cells in India.

Which Type of Batteries are Most Widely Used in Forklifts?

"Low Self Discharge Property Makes Lead-acid Batteries the Preferred Choice"

The global forklift battery market, based on type, is segmented into lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, and others.

The market is set to exhibit high demand for lead-acid batteries going forward. This high demand for forklift lead-acid batteries can be ascribed to their durable and reliable nature as compared to other battery types.

These batteries also have the lowest self-discharge rate among all the types of batteries available on the market, which makes them the preferred choice for various applications. As a result, it is no surprise that the segment accounts for a commanding 60% share of the global market at present.

However, demand for forklift lithium batteries is anticipated to rise at a faster pace in the future owing to them being cost-effective and energy-efficient. Faster charging time, high recharge efficiency of more than 98%, and no cool-down period are some other prominent factors that will favor the sales growth of lithium-ion forklift batteries over the coming years.

Winning Strategy

Forklift battery manufacturers are focusing on the research and development of innovative batteries and battery management solutions to optimize efficiency and costs.
