Exports of valve industry are soaring near localization

Since the beginning of the 21st century, with the strong development of China's real economy and traditional manufacturing industries, valves and related products have also made great progress as an indispensable basic component in the manufacturing chain. Valve manufacturers have mushroomed in the market. It has injected infinite vitality into China's manufacturing industry, and its contribution to the national economy is obvious to all.

The use of valves is very extensive. Many different types of valves are used in the industries of construction, environmental protection, fire protection, HVAC, water supply and drainage, petrochemicals, metallurgy, papermaking, and electricity. In short, valves are used whenever they are fluid-related. This is the reason why the valve industry has developed rapidly and has a broad prospect.

Wenzhou valve product exports increased 26.2% year-on-year

Wenzhou Customs announced the import and export data of Wenzhou City in October. Valves, electrical products and glasses became the three highlights of Wenzhou's exports in the first ten months of this year, up by 26.2%, 5.9%, and 2.2% year-on-year, respectively. Exports of these three categories maintained strong growth, causing Wenzhou's exports to decline slightly, only a 1.5% decrease year-on-year.

From January to October of this year, Wenzhou’s exports amounted to US$14.87 billion. Wenzhou's traditional export products such as shoes and clothing have been difficult to achieve significant improvement this year. However, in previous years, export-oriented protection circuit devices and other electrical products, valves, and glasses The three categories of products have maintained a strong momentum this year, accounting for more than one-seventh of Wenzhou's total exports. In the first ten months, the exports of pass-through protection circuit devices were worth 1.01 billion U.S. dollars, the export of valves was 600 million U.S. dollars, and the export of eyeglasses was 610 million U.S. dollars. Among them, exports of circuit-breaker protection circuit devices reached 100 million U.S. dollars in October, a year-on-year increase of 7.8%.

This year, Wenzhou City maintained a good growth in exports of valves, glasses, and electrical products. It was mainly due to the expansion of the international market by the corresponding enterprises while developing the domestic market. Such electric appliance companies as Yueqing Group and Yueqing Group were When the domestic market increases cooperation with state-owned enterprises, it also strengthens the expansion of Southeast Asian markets. In the first ten months of this year, the company's exports increased by 38% year-on-year.

Localization of valves is just around the corner

After several decades of development, China's valve manufacturing industry has made great progress. At present, the number of valve companies in China ranks first in the world, and the valve production level has also been greatly improved, and the valve output has increased substantially.

The valve industry plays an important role in the development of the national economy as an important part of preparing for manufacturing. As there is still a gap between China's domestic valve manufacturing industry and the international advanced level, many high-parameter, high-temperature, high-pressure, high-pound critical valves have always depended on imports. In order to promote the localization of valves, the State Council issued the "on the acceleration of the rejuvenation. After several opinions of the equipment manufacturing industry, the relevant national departments have successively made a series of major deployments according to the requirements of the country for major equipment localization, and are led by the National Development and Reform Commission. Together with China National Machinery Industry Association and the China General Machinery Industry Association, Deployed and formulated the valve localization program for major equipment in related fields, and coordinated with related departments several times, and now the localization of valves has formed a consensus in the domestic valve industry.

At present, China's valve manufacturing industry has been able to provide users with about twelve categories, more than 3,000 models, more than 4,000 specifications of the product, its performance parameters range from vacuum valves to 600Mpa ultra-high pressure valves, the temperature from cryogenic -196 Celsius to high temperature 570 degrees Celsius. Its main products have basically been able to meet the needs of the domestic market, and the valve market's rate of complete sets, complete sets of levels and complete sets of capabilities have greatly improved, the domestic valve has already had a certain foundation for revitalization.

Five factors in reform to protect exports

In the first half of the year, the number of export enterprises for valve valves in Wenzhou reached 426, a year-on-year increase of 5.19%, of which the export volume of Kefulong and Chaoda Valves has exceeded the 10 million US dollars mark. Judging from the distribution of trading countries and regions, the countries with the top shipments in the first half of this year remained relatively unchanged from the same period of last year, but the trade volume in North America, the EU, and the Middle East has increased significantly. This year, the Spring Festival holiday was ruled out and the post-holiday recruitment and employment difficulties were among other factors. The overall situation was on a monthly basis.

Wenzhou valve industry is mainly facing the following factors:

1. It is difficult to improve the external demand during the period of shortening. In stabilizing external demand, it must also pay more attention to expanding domestic demand. A comprehensive and revival of the world economy will also require a slow and tortuous process. During this process, investment and trade protectionism may rise further. Export recovery this year is very difficult. We must focus on opening up the domestic market and accelerate the transition to a domestic demand-led economy.

2. It is unsustainable for investment to stimulate growth, and the policy effect tends to weaken. We must pay attention to increasing the endogenous power of economic development. In 2009, investment in urban fixed assets increased by 30.5%, and it is very difficult to continue to grow substantially this year. To maintain stable economic growth, we must play the guiding role of government investment and stimulate the vitality of private investment.

3. Consumption does not lead to sufficient economic growth. It must focus on the quality of the variety to lead and promote consumption upgrades. Since 2009, under the guidance of the State's policy of encouraging consumption, the total retail sales of consumer goods have maintained a rapid growth of 15.5%, but the impetus of consumption for economic growth is still not enough. Must innovate varieties, improve quality, create brands, improve services, lead consumption, cultivate the market, and enhance consumption to the economy.

4. Overcapacity and elimination of backward problems have highlighted the need to speed up industrial restructuring and transformation and upgrading. At present, not only traditional industries such as iron and steel, cement, and shipbuilding, etc., have excess capacity, but they are still expanding blindly. Wind power equipment, polysilicon and other emerging industries have also shown a tendency to blindly invest in repeated construction. The task of industrial restructuring of Futai's valves is very heavy.

5. The profound changes have taken place in the international competition landscape. We must focus on nurturing and developing strategic emerging industries. China is faced with rising comprehensive costs of production factors and the strengthening of resource and environmental constraints. This requires us to base ourselves on the development of the current, accelerate the upgrading of traditional industries, and also focus on the long-term, Futai Valve pays more attention to the development of strategic emerging industries.

In the face of the still severe export situation, we seriously carried out the "Monthly orders, promoted transformation, and protection of goals" foreign trade enterprise service month activities, and fully implemented the "19 measures to serve the five aspects of foreign trade development", and strictly implemented the sample testing of export valve type tests. At the same time, optimize the export inspection process, speed up the release of customs clearance, actively create a good foreign trade development environment for export valve companies, stabilize growth, adjust the structure, promote balance, and fully support Wenzhou valve exports.
