2013 mold export growth rate maintained at 10%

At present, there are more than 50,000 mold manufacturing enterprises in the country, employing about 2 million people, and the import and export scale amounts to 4 billion US dollars. Considering the effect of the macroeconomic “steady growth” policy of the country, infrastructure investment, mold city construction, etc. will advance steadily, and the possibility of stabilizing investment growth in the mold industry in 2013 will be greater. It is expected that the growth rate of investment in mold industry will be maintained throughout the year. Above 30%, the growth rate of fixed asset investment will remain at around 20%.

In terms of consumption, endogenous growth has been strong but growth has slowed. The automotive industry, although the growth rate has fallen sharply than before, the pace of development of new models has not slowed down. Therefore, the demand for molds is still strong, and the development of strategic emerging industries, as well as energy-saving emission reduction, engineering plastics, etc. will put forward higher and higher requirements for molds. In addition to traditional manufacturing industries such as automobiles, electronics, and home appliances, the aerospace, new energy, IT, medical machinery, and high-speed railway industries have also provided new market opportunities for the mold industry. Such as the medical device industry has a strong dependence on the mold, many mold companies involved in the display of vitality; at the same time, with precision sensing precision molds, high-light traceless and mold assembly mold, laminated mold and rotation Moulds, multi-color multi-material injection molds, multi-layer co-extrusion compound molds, and multi-functional composite high-efficiency molds are also the most recent mold development directions, and show strong growth momentum.

In the second half of 2013, the export of mold and mold products will show a noticeable trend of slowing down, and it is expected that the growth rate of the export value of the mold industry will be maintained at around 10%. At present, the mold industry has a large degree of dispersion and industrial concentration is poor. Although China's die size is among the highest in the world, it is mostly concentrated in middle and low-end areas, and its technical level and added value are relatively low. On the contrary, many high-end molds also rely on imports.
