Ireland’s construction equipment rental and leasing industry is seeing steady momentum, with revenue projections expected to reach €904.8 million by the end of 2024, according to IBISWorld. This moderate but stable growth trend is reflective of the wider construction sector’s resurgence, largely attributed to ongoing residential development and state-backed infrastructure investment.
From housing projects in growing urban areas to large-scale civil engineering works such as transport links and renewable energy infrastructure, demand for equipment rental — including crane hire — is climbing. As developers aim to cut down on capital expenditure and keep operations lean, rental services like ours are becoming the go-to solution.
