BUILT FOR THE UNBREAKABLE: DEWALT® UNVEILS INSIGHTS AND INNOVATIONS AT WORLD OF CONCRETE®

The survey also reveals a strong desire to transition towards the future of the
jobsite with electric-powered tools. While the pros surveyed cited power supply and tool durability (39% and 35% respectively) as concerns regarding electric-powered tools, these concerns have decreased compared to last year's survey (44% and 39% respectively.) Moreover, 72% of respondents who switched to electrified tools on jobsites say it has allowed them to complete projects up to two to three times faster compared to gas-powered tools. What's more, 93% of respondents believe that electric-powered tools will have a positive impact on the environment compared to gas-powered tools.

Other key findings of DEWALT's 2025 Power Pulse Survey include:

• Key Benefits of Electric:
  Compared to gas-powered tools, 45% of construction management cited safety (i.e., fewer gas tanks on jobsite, limiting tripping hazards, etc.) and ease of use as the most significant benefits of using electric-powered tools.
• Sustainably-Minded Business Development : Ninety percent (90%) of construction managers agreed that adopting more sustainable building solutions would help win more business for their company.
• Reducing Stress and Strain on the Job:
  Safety concerns are the biggest stressor across jobsites, with 45% of skilled workers citing this factor. Also high on their list is the physical strain from using heavy equipment and performance issues with the tools and equipment (36%, 36%).
• The Future of the Jobsite:
  Ninety-four percent (94%) of construction professionals are confident that their construction sites are adequately fitted for the transition to fully electric-powered tools, a meaningful increase from the 89% that expressed confidence last year.
