Additional Information

The UK event equipment hire market (excluding conferences & meeting events) is estimated to be worth some £510-530 million in 2011. Benefiting from growth in the overall events market, the event equipment hire market grew year-on-year to 2008, before the recession impacted on the market. However, suppliers to the events sector have fared better than those to other end-sectors such as construction and industrial maintenance.

The event equipment hire market has outperformed the events market in recent years due to increased demand for value added equipment, such as upgraded welfare units, temporary structures, interiors and audio-visual requirements.

The number of outdoor events has increased in recent years and is likely to continue in the future that is expected to provide increased equipment hire opportunities as site infrastructure is required including structures, generators and welfare units. Key market influences on the event equipment hire market are the events sector (itself dependent on the weather), the general economic economy and local economies in particular, health & safety legislation and market competition.

Annual growth rates slowed once the recession hit, with end-use sectors such as corporate events being the first to be impacted by company budget restraints. The hire equipment market experienced challenging conditions in 2009 and 2010, but returned to growth in 2011 benefiting from the Royal Wedding and an increasing interest in events, particularly outdoor events, as more people spent their vacations in the UK. This is a highly complex and fragmented market, with very few total event equipment hire companies. Some sectors are more highly fragmented than others, with for instance there being hundreds of companies supplying toilets, but fewer, albeit larger companies, supplying audio-visual equipment. Cross hiring is a significant feature of this market as hire companies undertake contracts where their equipment ownership levels are exceeded.

The market has performed extremely well in 2012, being boosted by a number of major events including the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations, the London 2012 Games (Olympics and Paralympics), the torch relays and Cultural Olympiad. Whilst some other events were cancelled for a number of reasons, the market managed to grow and future prospects for the market look positive.

It is difficult to quantify the product mix as no two events are alike, but it is estimated that the largest equipment hire sectors are staging, structures & seating and portable buildings & sanitation. Other important hire sectors are power generation & climate control, audio-visual & specialist lighting and traffic & crowd control, signage, security & portable access. Other products include interiors and access equipment & other plant.
