Following several years of decline owing to the oil and gas downturn and the knock-on effects on surrounding industries, the fluid power equipment market has demonstrated a strong recovery in the last few years. While economic sentiment has remained positive, recent geopolitical events threaten to dampen global economic prospects with an imminent slowdown.

The commoditization of fluid power product equipment adds to the price pressure, which is already getting strained due to supply chain constraints, the trade war, and the presence of low-cost manufacturers. However, increased focus on energy-efficient products and technological advancement are expected to help manufacturers differentiate their solutions. North America, home to the largest economy in the world, continues to go from strength to strength in the oil and gas industry, as well as, in the off-highway vehicle sector.

Similarly, Asia-Pacific, which is home to the two fastest-growing major economies in the world, is another key growth engine for this market due to the rising wealth in the region and the growth of the manufacturing sector. The Chinese Government's One Belt One Road Policy' is expected to continue to spur investments in infrastructure and logistics, driving growth in the construction and material handling sectors, while in the long-term, Made in China initiative will continue to push China in the direction of self-sufficiency for its technology needs. With greater penetration of smart solutions across key end-user sectors, the threat posed by electrification is also expected to be mitigated to some extent.

As some industries are expected to experience a significant slowdown in 2019, technological differentiation is the key to navigating the market slowdown successfully and emerging stronger for the future.
