What Are The Key Driving Factors For The Growth Of The Underground Personnel Carrier Market?
The expansion of mining activities is anticipated to fuel the growth of the market for underground personnel carriers. Mining activities involve the discovery and extraction of minerals and other subterranean materials. The escalation in mining operations, due to the increasing global demand for raw materials, is prompting more extraction activities to cater to the essential minerals and metals requirements of various industries. Underground personnel carriers play a vital role in these mining activities by ensuring safe and efficient transportation of workers within the subterranean tunnels, decreasing travel duration, enhancing operational productivity, and facilitating uninterrupted mining procedures. For example, in 2023, the UK government's online platform, Gov, reported production of 93,243 tonnes of coal in 2023, out of which surface mines contributed 66,357 tonnes and 26,885 tonnes came from underground mines. Thus, the expansion of mining activities is propelling the growth of the underground personnel carrier market.
