In 2013, due to the rapid development of production technology and the rise of labor price, the developed countries in Europe and the United States transferred the general products to the developing countries, and only produced high value-added products.
And China has a strong market potential, so it is more conducive to its development as a hardware processing export power. China’s hardware market is mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Guangdong and Shandong, among which Zhejiang and Guangdong are the most prominent.
According to the relevant survey data, in terms of individual hand tool product categories, socket is the largest export, hand tool combination ranks second, gardening tool ranks third, wrench ranks fourth, and pliers ranks fifth.
In terms of exporting countries, the United States ranks first, followed by Britain, Germany and Japan.
In the hand tool market, the demand of the hand tool market in the United States is stable. While the scale of new houses in the housing market in the United States is increasing, there are still a large number of existing houses, which are uninhabited, bringing great opportunities for housing renovation market.
The average model and age of motor vehicles are getting larger and larger, which has played a certain role in promoting the sales of hand tools in the automobile after-sales market.
There is a strong demand for forging tools for electronic products, especially adjustable spanners. The demand for hand tools is increasing in Germany, where comfortable and labor-saving tools are the most popular.
