The Yellow Table is International Construction's annual ranking of the world's 50 largest construction equipment manufacturers. This unique industry study not only analyses the standings of the industry's leading manufacturers, but looks at long-term trends in the industry, such as revenue cycles and regional growth. In this video, Chris Sleight takes us through some of the finer points of the 2014 edition, where overall revenues declined -10% as the downturn in global mining activity, the continued slowdown in China and the depreciation of the Japanese Yen all took their toll. These events saw standings change up and down the Yellow Table, along with some significant shifts in the structure of the global industry.
