Europe Smart Manufacturing Market to Reach $82.1 Billion by 2035

Published: Jan 2026

The European smart manufacturing market stood at $26.6 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $82.1 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 12.0 percent during the 2026 to 2035 period, according to a new report by OMR Global. European manufacturers are increasingly investing in automation and robotics as core elements of smart manufacturing strategies. Industrial robots, PLCs, SCADA systems, and integrated automation hardware are becoming central to production operations across key sectors, including automotive, machinery, electronics, and food & beverage. This shift supports improvements in productivity, operational resilience, and quality control, while enabling the integration of data analytics, digital controls, and connected systems across manufacturing sites. As the industry adapts to evolving competitive and supply chain pressures, automation is a strategic response that reinforces Europe’s industrial base and enhances its ability to respond to market demands.

According to the International Federation of Robotics, Europe remains a significant region for industrial automation, with approximately 85,000 industrial robots installed in 2024, making it the second largest region for new deployments. Around 80% of these installations occurred in EU member states, reflecting strong intra-regional adoption. Germany continued to lead the European market with about 26,982 new robot installations, representing roughly 32% of total European robot deployments in 2024. These figures, while showing some year-on-year variation, confirm that automation technologies remain a key investment area for European manufacturers as part of broader smart manufacturing efforts.
