anti-sway market. There is also a rising demand for more supervised systems to reduce the burden of crane operators, which has influenced the adoption of integrated controls. These automated controlling systems can balance weight shift, allow for a better visual to properly transport the material from one place to another and owing to Government regulations regarding health and safety at work, all these factors have positively influenced market growth. The findings come from a report by
T
Global Market Estimates (GME), (‘Global Anti-Sway Crane Controller Market’, published February 25, 2021), which predicts the sector will grow with a high CAGR value between 2021 to 2026. In terms of region, it claims Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share by 2026

he increasing number of collisions due to an imbalance of weight, during material handling is a key driver for technology in the
due to expansion in the construction and transportation industry, as well as increasing investment in technologically advanced products. North America will also see significant growth in the coming years. Increasing automotive production along with rising demand for more safe operations to avoid heavy fines in lawsuits
will influence demand. The region has also witnessed a high collision rate due to weight fall and unstable load swing. The Middle East and Africa is projected to see the highest gains due to demand from the oil and gas industry. The regional growth is also influenced by stringent labour laws and labour safety programs.
