Statistics Committee

The Statistics Committee aims to gather information on the equipment rental market in Europe and to compile this data regularly.

In conjunction with this, the Committee works at developing a common language in rental across Europe to aid transparency and increase the efficiency of data collection. Every year, the Committee produces European-level statistics for the rental market in cooperation with IHS Global Insight, published as the ERA Market Report.

A Rental Confidence Tracker has been developed with IRN. The ERA/IRN Rental Tracker surveys business confidence and expectations for the future, as well as asking questions relating to fleet investment and time utilisation. It is carried out twice a year and enables ERA to provide good business intelligence to its members.
