September 5, 2024--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Without construction machinery, industrial projects on the scale we see today simply couldn't happen. Manufacturers of construction equipment help meet a basic, fundamental need in the construction of power plants, liquefied natural gas facilities, factories and other infrastructure. Industrial Info is tracking more than $800 million in active U.S. projects that will expand the country's production of construction equipment. The Southwest and Midwest market regions represent the highest amounts of spending, together accounting for more than $630 million in investments, although the highest number of projects is occurring in the Great Lakes region.
