From January to May, China's exports of construction machinery to Indonesia increased by 60.89% year-on-year

en.Wedoany.com Reported - From January to May 2026, China's total exports of construction machinery to Indonesia amounted to approximately $1,062,556,300, a cumulative year-on-year increase of 60.89%, showing strong growth momentum. Among them, exports in May alone reached about $263,969,200, up 55.38% month-on-month and surging 127.09% year-on-year.

Excavators are the core growth driver for exports to Indonesia. From January to May 2026, China's cumulative exports of excavators to Indonesia reached $564,760,800, a year-on-year increase of 45.25%. In May alone, exports hit a record high of $133,851,900, up 52.35% month-on-month and 86.88% year-on-year. Analysts believe that the brief decline in exports in April was only a short-term fluctuation, as Indonesia's rigid demand for excavators remains strong.

In terms of loaders, cumulative exports from January to May 2026 amounted to $42,858,700, down 5.32% year-on-year, indicating overall pressure on performance. Exports in May reached $8,270,200, down 25.96% month-on-month, but still achieving a 19.63% year-on-year increase, suggesting some resilience in the market, though demand stability is weaker than that for excavators.

Indonesia, one of the largest economies in Southeast Asia, has been continuously advancing infrastructure construction and mining development in recent years, driving sustained growth in demand for Chinese construction machinery and equipment. Industry analysts point out that close monitoring of fund disbursement for Indonesian infrastructure projects and changes in mine operating rates is necessary to guard against export fluctuation risks in the second half of the year.
