The construction robots market size was valued at USD 1.38 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow USD 1.63 billion in 2025 to around USD 7.28 billion by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 18.1% during the forecast period. The market growth is driven by increasing automation, adoption of AI and robotics for tasks like material handling and demolition, rising efficiency and safety demands, and supportive government initiatives worldwide.
The growth of the construction robots market is propelled by various key factors driving innovation and transformation within the construction industry. A primary catalyst is the substantial efficiency gains achieved through the automation of labor-intensive tasks. Construction robots contribute to faster project completion and resource optimization, thereby enhancing overall project efficiency. Furthermore, the paramount emphasis on safety in construction operations positions these robots as indispensable, as they can adeptly handle hazardous tasks, mitigating risks to human workers and ensuring compliance with stringent safety regulations. Another crucial growth factor lies in the cost-effectiveness of construction robots in the long term. Despite initial substantial investments, these robotic systems yield significant cost benefits through reduced labor expenses and minimized project delays. The continuous integration of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced sensors further augments the technological landscape, allowing construction robots to adapt to dynamic environments and execute complex tasks with precision. As the industry continues to evolve, these growth factors collectively contribute to the sustained expansion of the construction robots market.

Asia Pacific dominated the market with a share of 34% in 2024 and is anticipated to retain its position over the forecast period. The increasing adoption of robotic automation and tools in this region is the major factor driving the growth. The region is likely to witness significant growth owing to the increasing government spending on the construction industry and increasing competition among the market players.
In addition, Asia Pacific has a high population resulting in the increasing demand for residential and industrial infrastructure, which makes Asia Pacific a promising region. For instance, instance in February 2022, Schindler announced the deployment of its Schindler R.I.S.E robot in the Asia Pacific region. Schindler R.I.S.E is an autonomous, self-climbing robot that is used for installation activities in elevator shafts.
In addition, increasing number of construction projects and construction firms in the Middle East Africa region due to the growing tourist population is expected to drive the regional market growth. Governments from countries such as MEA and Saudi Arabia are constantly undertaking investment and development initiatives in the infrastructure industry resulting in the growing demand for robotic automation in the construction sector.
The material handling segment accounted for the largest revenue share of 33% in 2024 and is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 18.05% over the forecast period. The large production of construction robots worldwide, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, is a significant factor driving the growth of this segment. The growing adoption of automation in the construction industry for functions such as demolition, renovation, material handling, and printing applications is expected to drive the growth of the market. Construction robots are especially useful in demolition because they can be controlled wirelessly. The use of construction robots in demolition activities allows humans to remain at a safe distance and thus avoid the risk of injury.
The robotic arm segment contributed the largest market share in 2024. Construction industry trends such as refined construction, rapid construction, and standardized design have aided in the adoption of innovative technologies. Market players operating in the robotic arm segment have to constantly develop and design new and innovative products to cope with the increasing demand. For instance, in April 2021, PrintStones, an autonomous 3D printing and construction robot provider, announced the launch of a new variant of Baubot. The new robot is an autonomous construction assistant with a robotic arm mounted on top that carries out functions such as security, drywall, 3D printing, painting, welding, and bricklaying.
On other hand, traditional robot segment is expected to witness highest CAGR during forecast period. Increasing awareness of benefits brought about by adoption of robotic automation in construction industry has fueled demand for innovative construction robots and products. Traditional robot segment has witnessed significant new innovative products launched by market players to address evolving needs of construction industry. For instance, in October 2022, Built Robotics, provider of construction automation products, announced launch of its Exosystem platform in European market. Exosystem can transform excavators into autonomous robots.
The industrial segment had the largest market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at the highest CAGR over the forecast period. Rapid urbanization and industrialization across developing and underdeveloped countries due to foreign investments and the availability of abundant resources have fueled the demand for the construction robots market. Furthermore, various initiatives undertaken by the governments in the construction industry to provide employment opportunities to the population are expected to boost the demand for the market.
