Mining Industry – A New Driver For Russian Rental Market
RusRental has published results of the recent survey “Equipment Rental in Russian Mining Industry”, which has shown that although the Russian mining industry giants still show cautious attitude towards equipment rental, more and more of them become rental-oriented, which definitely makes the mining industry one of the main drivers for equipment rental growth in Russia.
A ratio of owned and rented machines and equipment used by Russian mining companies is shown on the diagram below:
The most often rented machines are dozers and excavators, while machines and equipment like aerial platforms, rollers, tower cranes and concrete pumps are not rented by Russian mining companies at all.
Also, attitude towards rental differs strongly in various parts of Russia, and the survey has shown that in some areas of Russia mining companies rent equipment in the very rare cases.
Full results of the survey are published in the report “Equipment Rental in Russian Mining Industry” prepared by RusRental (www.rus-rental.com).
