According to projection data for 2023, according to the Brazilian Chamber of the Construction Industry (CBIC)the projection for the civil construction industry was an increase of 2.5% in 2023.

Still on projections for 2023, the analysis of the machinery and equipment industry for civil construction indicated a period of recovery and growth, with potential for an increase in sales throughout 2023. 17th Sobratema Study of the Brazilian Construction Equipment Market, carried out by the Brazilian Association of Technology for Construction and Mining (Sobratema), projected that sales in 2023 will increase by approximately 4%, both for the yellow line machinery branch and for the general sector of construction equipment. Furthermore, with regard to labor and raw material costs, data published by the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) on National Construction Cost Index (INCC-M) indicated that they ended 2022 with an increase of 9.40%, less than the 13.84% recorded in the previous year.
José Antônio Valente, director of the company equipment rental Trans Obra, says that the machinery and equipment sector continues to work on top of the positive projections for the year 2023 and that the work for the second half will be intense to recover the losses of the beginning of the year compared to previous periods. José Antônio went on to say that despite the drop in sales, the leasing sector achieved positive numbers in the leasing of large machines as well as in the power tool rental. “Despite the drop in results in the domestic market and in exports of machinery and equipment, the homework is to carry out the operations planned for the year with maximum quality and efficiency”.
