New data from the American Rental Association (ARA) has revealed that construction and industrial rental penetration – the proportion of the total fleet of construction machines that are owned by equipment rental companies – reached 53.9% last year.
美國租賃協會公布2014年最新建筑業及工業的租賃滲透率(設備租賃公司擁有的施工機械占建筑業及工業擁有施工機械總數的比例)達到53.9%。
This compared to penetration of 52.9% in 2013, according to the ARA Rental Penetration Index.
根據美國租賃協會租賃滲透率指數,相較2013年的52.9%,2014年有所增長。
John McClelland, ARA vice president for government affairs and chief economist, said, “Rental penetration continues to increase in conjunction with strong growth in rental revenues in 2014.”
美國租賃協會政務副會長,首席經濟學家,約翰·麥克利蘭認為,2014年,租賃滲透率隨著租賃收益的強勁增長而持續上升。
Indeed, the 2014 increase marked the fifth year of growth since the dramatic dip in the index between 2008 and 2009. That dip was attributed to the quick action equipment rental companies took when the financial crisis significantly reduced construction activities that drive equipment demand.
的確,2014年的增長實現了自從2008年到2009年租賃滲透率驟然下降后的5連長。上次滲透率驟降由于金融危機嚴重影響了建筑業,致使設備需求減少,這給設備租賃公司重重一擊。
Since 2009 rental penetration has continued to increase largely due to the growing demand for equipment in the construction and industrial segment, according to the ARA.
據悉,自從2009年租賃滲透率持續上漲,很大程度上是由于建筑業和工業設備需求增加。
Tight credit conditions and the increasing costs of buying new Tier IV equipment, making it difficult for contractors to rebuild their fleets after the financial crisis, have also fuelled growth.
信用緊縮和購買第四代設備成本增長使承包商很難在金融危機后重建他們的建筑艦隊,這也刺激了租賃滲透率增長。
“One of the biggest questions going forward is if the secular shift away from equipment ownership by end users toward rental continues,” Mr McClelland said.
麥克利蘭認為,滲透率繼續增長所面臨的最大問題是,租賃過程中,是否會出現長期性的設備所有權從最終用戶轉移。
“If 2014 is any gauge, there is still room for rental penetration to continue to increase and as the economy continues to grow this means more demand for rental equipment; a double-barrelled boost to the equipment rental industry.”
如果以2014年的數據為基礎預測以后發展,那么租賃滲透率仍有上升空間。同時,隨著經濟持續增長,設備租賃需求也會更多。以上兩方面雙管齊下會促進租賃設備業發展。
ARA and its research partner IHS Economics developed the ARA Rental Penetration Index to provide another measure of rental industry performance.
美國租賃協會和其調查合作人(HIS經濟)共同調查完成美國租賃協會租賃滲透指數,從另一方面了解租賃業發展狀況。
The Index uses information from the US Department of Commerce Current Industry Reports along with an aggregate estimate of the Financial Utilisation metric provided by Rouse Analytics.
滲透率指數通過利用美國商務部目前行業報告和勞斯分析提供的金融利用率指標的聚合分析得出。
The Index is value-based and uses original equipment cost as the primary weighting factor to calculate the ratio of rental equipment value to total fleet value.
本指數以初始設備成本作為主要權重因素, 通過租賃設備價值占整個建筑業和工業行業擁有設備總價值的比率計算得出。
