China has become the tool manufacturing country, efforts to raise the overall quality of direction is moving. Industry comprehensive use of advanced technology, advanced equipment, advanced technology, and industry-wide standard is equivalent to the ISO international standards, the main thing is, more frequent international exchanges between the industry, and comprehensively improve the quality of business leaders and managers to become our tools industry new impetus to sustainable development. See the 2011 the tool industry import and export data statistics, a branch of the Secretary-General of China National Hardware Association Tools Hardware Zhou Jihua said bluntly, five Chinese Tools hardware power status has been established in 2011 to further.

According to customs statistics, in 2011 Tools Hardware exports 10.606 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year growth of 26.7%. , Small power tools for $ 2.614 billion, an increase of 22.3%; saw products for $ 1.212 billion, a year-on-year growth of 24.9%; measuring and $ 897 million, an increase of 50%; gardening tool as $ 563 million, an increase of 16.8% ; pliers for $ 608 million, a year-on-year growth of 28.3%; Wrenches $ 607 million, a year-on-year growth of 24.1%; tools set for $ 431 million, a year-on-year growth of 15.9%.

Product imports, the annual imports amounted to $ 5.166 billion, a year-on-year growth of 21.9%. Which, measuring 2.673 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year growth of 26.4%; small electric tools for $ 433 million, a year-on-year growth of 16.1%; Wrenches $ 118 million, a year-on-year growth of 2.6%; the sawing of $ 234 million, a year-on-year growth of 35.3%; Tool set for $ 040 million, a year-on-year growth of 53.8%; pliers for $ 036 million, a year-on-year growth of 28.6%; gardening tools $ 004.9 million, a year-on-year growth of 28.9%.

Is not difficult to find from the customs statistics, wrenches, pliers, saws class represented by the traditional hand tools are still favored by overseas buyers, and long-term growth rate of about 20% also prove that the Chinese-made hand tools products being occupied increasingly the larger market space. Exports of small power tools, gardening tools, tools set for further growth, the demand for such products in the major markets of Europe and the United States has not decreased due to the impact of the financial crisis, these products are DIY main consumer.

Concern is the import side, although the world's largest wrenches, pliers, almost all manufacturing companies in China, but that the two types of products imported amounted to nearly $ 150 million; measuring products even more so, Orient Seiko Great Wall Seiko driven by a number of leading enterprises in Zhejiang province has a large number of manufacturing enterprises the 2011 gage export $ 897 million, the growth rate reached 50%, while imports reached $ 2.673 billion, to maintain the high growth rate of 26.4%, measuring tools of the trade of individual products The deficit reached $ 1.776 billion, in the entire hardware industry which is also rare.

Insiders believe that, China is the world's largest production base of hand tools, export tools and more OEM-based, many products are actually manufactured by domestic enterprises, and sold back to the domestic market after the well-known foreign brands procurement labeling. Therefore, domestic tools companies need to do more branding and channel construction, to avoid producers earn hardly worth the effort, the embarrassing situation of high profits earned go for foreign brands.

Jinhua Tools Hardware Industry Association Secretary-General Wang Qiuqin says that when it comes to this issue, 2011 basic of Jinhua tools production enterprise is in full production, the enterprise generally reflect orders to do, however, want to expand the scale of production but is subject to recruitment difficulties . Even so, the production level of corporate profits is still very low, in addition to a small number of large corporate profits can reach 20%, the majority of the profits of enterprises in the less than 10%.

Tools corporate bosses generally reflect a problem is working in full swing to one year, but not many lucrative. The reason, or sell because the prices do not go up, more often at a low level homogenization of competition. Lack of brand awareness and influence, and the lack of domestic and international sales and marketing channels, most enterprises lack a voice pricing and market control force, can only hope that the weather waiting for orders.

Of course, these are not easy, and may need to go through quite a long time to realize, I hope that our producers aware of the problem as soon as possible, and to gradually improve. Wangqiu Qin said.

Insiders believe that our business in export, or in order to win, the growth in sales in fact not bring profit margins improved, and completely dependent on the increase in the number of export products, which may be restricting the development of the industry hazard. Especially Taiwan tools Tools India's competitiveness in the international market to our business caused a lot of pressure.

Zhou Jihua this not hidden for so many years tool development in China has been very healthy, high-speed, continuous quality has improved steadily, and the market share has expanded each year, leading Western tool manufacturing shrinking year by year, it is due to the rapid growth of the Chinese tool industry . Of course, the Chinese tool industry competitive, such as India, otherwise the Chinese tool not become a volley Rose? Future tool development in China to maintain the current momentum of development, not rash, steady progress, we will be able to achieve the goal of the tool manufacturing powerhouse.
