Covid-19 impact on U.K. Off-Highway Equipment Lubricants Market Size To Reach $563.8 Million By 2025

The U.K. off-highway equipment lubricants market size is projected to reach USD 563.8 million by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., registering a 1.9% CAGR over the forecast period. Increasing demand for heavy-duty engine oil, coupled with growing infrastructure and agriculture sectors, is anticipated to propel lubricant consumption.

Rapid increase in urbanization has led to demand for better infrastructure in U.K. As the country is developing various plans to meet the growing infrastructural demand, the construction sector is likely to expand significantly as well. Rise in demand for transport infrastructure in U.K. will create opportunities for construction machinery, and therefore its lubricants, as these machines are the basic requirement for completing any infrastructure project.

British Petroleum plc, Shell UK Ltd, ExxonMobil Corporation, Total UK Ltd, Fuchs Lubricants (UK) plc, and Chevron Corporation are key manufacturers and suppliers of lubricants and boast of a well-established distribution network across the region. Manufacturers are focusing on increasing production capacities and entering into long-term agreements with distributors to effectively cater to the market.

Presence of numerous rental services for construction and agricultural machinery, such as tractors, harvesters, and sprayer rental services, and growing trend of hiring such machinery on a short-term and seasonal basis are likely to offer promising growth in lubricant consumption in the rental segment. Growing stringent regulations pertaining to regular maintenance of machinery to reduce pollution is another factor driving demand for lubricants in U.K.
