Automated Material Handling Equipment Market

Automated Material Handling Equipment Market to reach USD 152 Billion by 2035 at 7.0% CAGR, fueled by robotics, e-commerce, and global logistics automation.

NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Automated Material Handling Equipment Market is entering a transformative decade. Estimated at USD 77.3 billion in 2025, the market is projected to reach USD 152.0 billion by 2035, expanding at a 7.0% CAGR, according to the latest industry analysis. This growth trajectory reflects the rapid digitization of supply chains, accelerated e-commerce adoption, and rising investments in smart factories and automated warehouses worldwide.

From USD 55.1 billion in 2020 to USD 72.2 billion in 2025, the first phase of expansion is being fueled by the surge in automated guided vehicles (AGVs), conveyor systems, and sortation technologies designed to optimize warehouse efficiency and reduce manual dependency. Between 2026 and 2030, the market is forecast to advance to USD 101.3 billion, supported by the integration of robotics, predictive analytics, and industrial IoT in logistics operations. By 2035, automation and AI-enabled intralogistics systems will push the market to USD 152.0 billion, cementing AMHE’s role at the core of next-generation industrial ecosystems.

Automation Defines the New Era of Supply Chain Efficiency

The global AMHE market’s momentum is being powered by the growing demand for accuracy, speed, and flexibility in distribution and manufacturing. As warehouse footprints expand and labor costs climb, companies are increasingly deploying AI-based vision systems, robotics, and IoT sensors to streamline material movement, improve order fulfillment accuracy, and lower operational expenses.

“Automation has evolved from being a productivity enhancer to a strategic imperative,” said a senior industry analyst. “From global retailers to 3PL providers, automated handling systems are now the backbone of efficient logistics and competitive manufacturing.”

E-commerce growth and omnichannel retailing have also accelerated this shift. High-volume order management, same-day delivery expectations, and seasonal surges have led to the widespread adoption of conveyors, automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), and mobile robotics for faster and more accurate throughput.
