The development of China's hardware industry cluster has matured

China's hardware industry has grown steadily. From a time point of view, in the past few years, the overall level of China's hardware industry is not too high, there are many small and medium-sized enterprises, and the start is relatively low, mostly for some small workshops; the changes in recent years are relatively large, one is the quality of personnel The improvement, for example, the current head of China Hardware City, the nation’s largest hardware market to be built in Beijing, is a Ph.D. and postdoctoral person. The second is the improvement of the process and management level. The factory like Great Wall Precision Co., Ltd. already has technology and management. Very high level.

From the process point of view, the current level of domestic production process is uneven, many large foreign companies to China as their product processing base, many international companies have entered the mainland market.

At present, it is the stage for the upgrading of China's hardware products, from the mid-to-low end to the over-production of high-end products. This is very beneficial to the development of China's hardware industry, in the process of the transfer of production of foreign products to the domestic, it will inevitably bring along some advanced foreign production processes and management models including raw materials.

From the traditional hardware point of view, the first is the tool, which is a rapid development of manual tools, hydraulic tools, and power tools. The second is the construction hardware and decoration hardware. The replacement speed is faster.

In addition, there is a great demand for hardware parts and components. Hebei Handan, a small processing plant, is lagging behind in production, and its sales force across the country has reached more than 100,000. Experts said that after more than ten years of accumulation and steadily improving, China’s hardware industry is now the world’s largest producer, with exports growing steadily each year. Among them, the largest export value is the tool products, up to 5.34 billion US dollars; followed by construction hardware, for 4.34 billion US dollars. The tap exports 2.23 billion U.S. dollars and the locks export 680 million U.S. dollars. The countries with the most exports are the United States, Japan, Europe, and South Korea. The annual export of China's hardware industry is growing at a rate of around 8%. Last year, the export volume of hardware products exceeded US$5 billion, ranking third in the export ranking of light industry. Due to the increase in the level of Chinese hardware manufacturing and the expansion of production capacity, it is expected that China's hardware products will maintain a steady growth of more than 10% per year within the next five years. Experts predict that by 2020, the proportion of China’s industrial added value to global industrial added value will increase from 5.72% in 2000 to over 10%; the export of manufactured goods will account for the proportion of global manufactured exports, which should be 5.22% from 2000. Increased to more than 10%. At that time, China will also have a number of powerful hardware manufacturing groups, forming a number of distinctive and internationally renowned hardware manufacturing centers.

Most of China's hardware industry clusters are in the process from development to maturity. There is still great potential for development. The speed of development and quality of development are also affected by external factors. China's hardware industry clusters will have a period of time in the future. The rapid development will develop in a more professional, more market-oriented and more international manner and will gradually mature. Therefore, it is very necessary for the government to support it while grasping its development trend.

The scale of the hardware industry cluster has gradually expanded. One of the important reasons why industrial clusters have received widespread attention is their high growth. Most industrial clusters have strong growth capabilities. Due to the rapid economic growth in the country, the growth rate of China's industrial clusters has become even more pronounced due to the high growth capacity of industrial clusters. The trend of its scale expansion is very obvious.

New hardware industry clusters continue to emerge. After more than 30 years of development, China's hardware industry cluster has become a major driving force for economic growth in some regions and an important source of international competitiveness. It has played an increasingly important role in regional economic development. In the eastern coastal areas, while the original industrial clusters have continued to mature, the division of labor has continued to refine and new industrial clusters have emerged.

Regional brands have become a new direction for the development of industrial clusters. Industrial clusters can become an important carrier for the growth of regional brands and corporate brands, while the promotion of regional brands and corporate brands will further promote the development of industrial clusters, forming a good interaction between the two. After more than 20 years of development, a large number of corporate brands and product brands have emerged within China's industrial clusters. On the basis of corporate brands and product brand groups, industrial clusters have gradually upgraded and expanded, eventually forming strong regional brands. The current brand has become Industrial clusters focus on development and important means of competition.
