In 2011 the global valve market opportunities and challenges

World water treatment equipment giant American Watts industrial group recently forecast, China valve market year demand gross not under 10000000000 yuan. According to the scientific outlook on development, China to ensure that the future economic development and improvement of people's life, will be the construction of infrastructure, such as water, electricity, gas, heat, put in Chongzhongzhi to weigh, this is precisely the valve play. That is to say, as a new type is rather than replacing the Chinese valve market, its demand potential and power would be amazing.
The first is China 's South-to-North Water Transfer Project, only Beijing suburbs to downtown 70 kilometers length, used for valve procurement amount on the high reached tens of millions of dollars, then the whole of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project is one can imagine the demand valve. Secondly, in order to solve the problems of shortage of electric power, the scale of hydropower project is not only the Chinese government launched the a pressing matter of the moment, it will be a long-term task. In addition, also in West to east gas pipeline, the transformation of the old industrial base, city network construction, residential construction, sewage treatment, water conservancy and other items are to be actuated valve of the huge market demand.
However, in the face of such a huge market in the future, China valve production enterprises is to eat to the number of orders? With in foreign rivalry, their difference have after all how old? These problems, I am afraid it China valve manufacturer cares most.
First, industrial structure difference. The valve manufacturer in China is too small, the industry is spent centrally low. According to the Watts company acquired the data, at present, the domestic more than 3000 valve manufacturing enterprises, the number of ranks first in the world. But it mostly low-level, small-scale, family workshops enterprises, with annual sales income of 5000000 yuan less than 500, the annual sales income of over 100 million yuan enterprise only ten, market share in the top 10 enterprise's market share and is only 8% ~ 9%. As a result of the industry is spent centrally low, resulting in a backward technology, low price competition, the lack of influential brand and other negative factors, making such a large Chinese valve market is still no real sense of the brand.
In second, the whole industry chain gap. As a kind of mechanical equipment, valves production in the whole industry chain downstream, including steel, sealing materials, and mechanical processing industry development level will be on technical parameters have important influence. The steel strength, ductility, corrosion resistance, high voltage resistance directly affects the valves of the corrosion resistance; sealing materials production level determines the valve applies to the medium and can withstand the pressure; the precision of machining is the interface seal, valve head and valve seat sealing level are important factors. But in our country, the several aspects of technology, compared with foreign countries there are some gaps, which also led to the domestic valve manufacturers in the production of high-grade products, by the relevant techniques for elbow.
