Recently, the 2018 Italian Plastics and Rubber Industry Exhibition successfully ended at the Milan New International Exhibition Center in Italy. During the exhibition, 72 companies from Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Shanghai, Shanxi, Shandong, Yunnan and other provinces and cities, more than 200 exhibitors , For the first time in the form of national pavilions at the show collective debut, focused on the overall level of China's plastics machinery industry and clustering advantages, but also for European merchants to provide an understanding of China's plastic press brand opportunities and platforms.
It is understood that the Italian Plastics and Rubber Industry Exhibition is held every 3 years. As the second largest plastics industry exhibition in Europe, its scale is second only to the German K SHOW Show. The Italian Rubber and Plastics Fair attracted over 50 people. More than 1,500 exhibitors from all countries and regions exhibited an exhibition scale of 55,000 square meters. This is the largest international plastics and rubber exhibition in Europe this year. The exhibition offers everything from plastic machinery raw materials to semi-finished and finished products, from mechanical products to related technologies and The all-round display of ancillary services focused on technological innovation and transformation in the industry. The brand exhibition in China has an exhibition area of 1,090 square meters, and has set up a service area to provide consulting services on business activities.
In recent years, the output of plastic products in China has maintained a steady growth. The development of the presses industry is also obvious to all. According to the data from the National Bureau of Statistics, from 2000 to 2017, the number of enterprises in the plastics machinery industry above designated size increased from 170 to 402, and the operating revenue of the industry From RMB 6.644 billion to RMB 67.1 billion, the annual growth rate of revenue is about 15%. According to statistics from China Plastics Machinery Industry Association, the overall development of China's plastics machinery industry was positive in 2017, and the number of orders increased significantly. The export delivery value was RMB 10.948 billion. The renminbi realized a steady growth of 21%.
In addition, with the macroeconomic stabilization in the past 16 years and the increase in R&D investment from domestic companies, the export strength of China's plastics machinery industry has continued to increase. In the past three years, the number of plastics machinery exported to Europe from mainland China has risen from 44,681 units in 2015 ( The increase was from 288,217 units (sets) in 2017, which increased from US$200 million in 2015 to US$320 million in 2017, showing a significant growth trend. Currently, the major export markets for plastics machinery in China are the United States, India, and Mexico. , Malaysia and Bangladesh and other countries.
It can be seen that China, as an important export target market for the European plastics machinery industry, is playing an increasingly important role in the international market. Molding companies in Italy, Germany and other European countries are more aiming at business opportunities in the Chinese market. The outlook for the development of the machine industry is unanimously optimistic.
According to the latest statistics from China Industry Information Network, in recent years, the export value of plastic machinery in China has accounted for more than 20% of the total income of the domestic industry. Overseas exports have provided an important impetus for the development of the industry. Since 14 years, the export of China's plastic machinery industry has started. Exceeded the import amount. On the one hand, it was Engel, Demag, Sumitomo Demag and other foreign brand manufacturers settled in China. On the other hand, the more important reason was that the technical level of China's injection molding machines improved rapidly, and high-quality products obtained domestically. External customers are widely recognized.
Driven by the new round of global technological revolution, the transformation and upgrading of China's plastics machinery industry is currently entering a key period of opportunity. The overall strength of the domestic manufacturing industry has been further strengthened, and while driving the development of exports, it has also reduced the domestic level to some extent. The dependence of the market on imported plastics machinery products. In the future, China's presses companies need to target market demand and constantly look for technological breakthroughs, and strive to promote intelligent manufacturing, to create energy-saving, precise, high-quality plastic machinery, in order to be able to enter in the future More and more high-end international markets.
