New York City, NY, 27 December, 2019/ 24 Market Reports: A snow thrower or snow blower is an equipment used to extract snow from a highway, rail track, or a driveway to provide access to the traffic. To remove the snow and allow the route to remain active at all times snow throwers are widely employed on highways and rail tracks.
North America and Europe are the regions that experience the snowfall at a higher rate and thus use the snowblower equipment at a larger rate. Extreme weathers and increased snowfalls are the effects of the global warming which is resulting in the increased use of snow throwers that is influencing the growth of the market. Also, to clear driveways, backyards and porches the use of snow throwers takes place excessively. The compact design and simplicity of usage are been resulting in the increased usage of the device which is propelling the growth of the market. The emergence of snow removal business is been resulting in the increased use of snow throwers which is resulting in the increased usage of snow throwers that are boosting the growth of the global market.
Consumption of high fuel and high cost of the device are the factors that are hindering the growth of the global snow thrower market. Hence the usage of these devices is restricted and are used only in extreme conditions. Snow-bower operated injuries are reported every year and hence are needed to be operated under medical surveillance. The clogging of snow in the machine causes the damage to it and thus requires to be repaired at regular intervals of time. These factors are also hindering the growth of the market at regular intervals.
Type of power, stage, application industry and region are the segmentation for the global snow thrower market. Battery power and gas power are the prominent categories for the market based on the type of power. Gas-powered snow throwers are the traditional type of snow throwers with their use in high-performance applications such as on rail tracks and highways. Battery-powered snow blowers are witnessing an increased demand owing to the rise in domestic demand for snowblowers.
Single-stage and double stage are the two widely used categories for the market based on stages. Compact, light-weighted, easy to handle and ideal for household chores are the features of single-stage snow throwers and hence own a significant demand in the market. Two-stage snow blowers are heavy-duty machines with power-assisted wheels, which makes them efficient for operations even in slopes and mountain areas.
Rails, roads, domestic and ice rinks are the categories for the market based on application. Roads and domestic are the major categories for the market with significant demand. Increased demand for ice sports is estimated to boost the ice rink segment, which in turn is expected to drive the snowblower market shortly. North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa are the segmentation for the market based on geography with North America and Europe being the major regions in the market.
