The 2009-2014 Outlook for Fiberglass Gel-Coated Shower Stalls and Receptors in Greater China

In couple of years, price of rubber material increased a lot accompanied with petroleum valued, RMB has appreciated 44 percent in past four years, meanwhile US dollar devalued, all of which give a great pressure on China rubber sheets, rubber extrusions’ suppliers. How can they get across darkness and touch with dawn?  Firstly, quality is life must be a belief live in every members of companies. Some rubber manufactures made competitive price in order to attract purchasers by lowering their quality, they get some profit terminally, but the final result is mostly of their customers shall get away from them. Secondly, innovation is an important way for most of companies. Not only technical innovation, but also system innovation, scientific management saving cost in any process steps if they can. At last, trying to get as many valuable certification as possible, like FDA, ROHs, ISO etc, food grade silicone rubber sheet exporting to USA much be FDA certificated. By this they can get products more competitive in world market. Recently, European Community adopted the regulation “REACH” to ensure a high level of protection for human health and the environment, as well as the free circulation of substances on their own, in preparation or in products, while simultaneously enhancing competitiveness and innovation, European custom control will not allow the shipping of goods into the EU, which contain ingredients that are not registered. Therefore, every manufacturer must be prepared to registration REACH from June 1, 2008 if they want to keep their market in Europe.

China Injection Molding Machine Industry is mainly distributed in Guangdong province, Jiangsu province and Shandong province, totally accounting for 88% of total enterprises in Injection Molding Machine Industry. Totally speaking, East China takes absolute advantages, of which enterprise quantity in Zhejiang province accounts for 61%, having increased by 14 enterprises over that in 2005. In 2000, market capacity of the whole industry realized RMB 4.598 billion, and then it increased to RMB 14.578 billion in 2006. Following it, per capita sales revenues have been increasing year after year, from RMB 198,114 in 2000 to RMB 462,012 in 2006 up by three times. Totally speaking, the market still kept a stable growth and gross profit margin is in decline; while profits are rapidly climbing. Undoubtedly, all of these have showed that China Injection Molding Machine Industry has been in a growing period.

China is the largest producer of injection molding machines in the world, and in fact it ranked 1st in the world on both of yield and consumption. In the past few years, injection molding machine producers have got greatly improved on technology and management. However, compared with those in developed countries, injection molding machines in China still have a way to catch up on technology and varieties. In detail, there is still not little blank on such varieties as super-large or special precision injection molding machines; meanwhile, self-support rate of home-made injection molding machines for products processing is only about 45%; while for high-end products processing, most adopt imported injection molding machines. Totally speaking, research and manufacturing of injection molding machines cannot still satisfy demands brought by development of plastics industry in China.

As for industrial machinery, presently most of other machinery processing enterprises have got poor benefits; while only injection molding machines have rapidly developed. And with sustaining and promising market, many enterprises which originally produced machine tools, textile machinery and power equipments, also started to produce injection molding machines.Such as casting mould,mold making,plastic injection mold and so on. And meanwhile, newly-established injection molding machine producers are also rapidly growing; therefore, there mainly exist price war and discount war for ordinary injection molding machines.

Since many automobile manufacturers and electronics & electrical appliances manufacturers congregates on “Yangtze River Delta” region, now major consumption market of injection molding machines in China is spreading from the South to the North especially adjacent areas of Shanghai.
