2011 engineering machinery product import and export presents four highlights

According to the statistics of the General Administration of Customs, the import and export volume of China's construction machinery from January to June 2011 was 11.812 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 39.1% year-on-year. The import value was US$5.191 billion, an increase of 29% year-on-year; the export value was US$6.62 billion, an increase of 48.1% year-on-year. In the first half of 2011, the import and export trade of engineering machinery products had a surplus of 1.429 billion U.S. dollars, which was further expanded over the previous year.

In the first half of 2011, the total cost of imported construction machinery was US$3.063 billion, an increase of 19.5% year-on-year, accounting for 59% of the total import volume; and parts and components imports were US$2.128 billion, an increase of 45.7% over 2010, accounting for 41% of total imports. Among them, crawler excavators, which accounted for nearly 62% of the total imports, fell sharply in March. In May and June, the number of imports and imports decreased. Tracked excavators imported 21,300 units in the first half of the year, and the import value reached 1.898 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 0.07% and 21.6% year-on-year, which was a significant decrease from the same period last year. The products with more import growth include high-power bulldozers, road and grader machines, scrapers, pavers, crawler cranes, concrete mixing equipment, pile drivers and engineering rigs, rock drilling machines and components. The products that have experienced a significant drop in imports include wheeled excavators, loaders, tower cranes, internal combustion forklifts, elevators and escalators, and other construction vehicles.

In terms of exports, the total amount of exported machines totaled 4.26 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 47.8% year-on-year, accounting for 64.3% of the total export volume; and parts and components exports were 2.36 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 35.7% of the total export volume, an increase of 48.67% year-on-year. From January to June, the products with larger export growth include crawler excavators, loaders, bulldozers, road and road graders, all-terrain cranes, forklifts, elevators and escalators, tower cranes, road rollers, rock drills, and tunnel boring machines. .

In the first half of 2011, the import and export of construction machinery presented the following features.

First, import and export both exceeded the highest in 2008. In the first half of the year, cumulative exports increased by 4.17% from the highest level in the same period in 2008. Cumulative imports increased by 78.5% over the same period of 2008.

Second, the increase in imports fell month by month. Imports in June amounted to US$714 million, a year-on-year increase of 10.7% and a decrease of 8.9% from the previous period. Imports increased by 29% in the first half of the year, the lowest increase since March 2010.

The third is that exports maintain a high level. In June, it exported 1.245 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 41.2%. The growth rate declined slightly, but it remained at a relatively high level. Considering the shortage of domestic energy supply and production costs, it is expected that the increase will hardly continue to increase in the coming months.

Fourth, the cumulative increase in imports and exports from the beginning of April swap. The increase in cumulative exports has exceeded the cumulative increase in imports since April, and the lack of growth in exports since 2008 has been reversed, and export growth has remained at a relatively high level, which is in contrast with the declining growth in imports, and the gap has continued to widen.

In 2011, host companies such as XCMG, Zoomlion, Shantui, and Dingsheng Tiangong successively set a large export quota, and XCMG, in particular, scored a grand total of 4.842 billion yuan, setting a new record. This laid a solid foundation for the host companies to strengthen export confidence.

Xugong Signs the First Large Export of Construction Machinery in China In early 2011, the Venezuelan government promulgated a 2 million-unit Huimin project to solve residential housing problems. Completing this huge housing plan requires a lot of work such as leveling the land, building roads, building houses, and so on, resulting in a large demand for construction machinery.

In March 2011, the Xugong delegation visited the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and was personally interviewed by President Chavez. Both parties held talks on XCMG's supply of engineering machinery to the Venezuelan housing sector. After several rounds of negotiations with Venezuela’s oil companies, XCMG has finally signed a series of complete sets of construction machinery products, excellent brand image and reliable product quality, as well as the industry’s leading manufacturing and service support capabilities. China's construction machinery exports the largest single.

The total value of the project is 4.842 billion yuan (equivalent to US$744.6 million), involving a total of engineering cranes, earthmoving machinery, road construction and maintenance machinery, road and compaction machinery, concrete machinery, piling machinery, heavy trucks and special vehicles. Wait 6025 devices. The first delivery of 790 units, the value of 365 million yuan, equivalent to 56 million US dollars, on June 21 officially sent to Venezuela.

Regarding single orders, whether it is the order amount or the number of equipment, this project has created a precedent for China's construction machinery export and the world's construction machinery market. It also created an independent large-scale manufacturing enterprise group to undertake and independently execute large-scale engineering machinery export projects. The precedent.

Shantui's 195 Machinery Exports to Ethiopia On June 24, 2011, the Shantui-Esse Project export launch ceremony was grandly held at Shantui International Business Park. The 195 Taishan push multi-species host will arrive at Tianjin Port in succession and be shipped to Ethiopia, Federal Democratic Republic. The mountain launch of the Ethiopian project is another big order following the 110 big orders settled in Angola in 2005.

The “Essai Project” is mainly a large-scale international procurement business in government departments. The project covers a wide range of industries and product categories, including construction machinery, passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, mining equipment, cables, and military products. Shantui's large-scale ordering host products include a total of 195 sets of bulldozers, rollers, loaders, graders, forklifts, excavators, and other products, highlighting the company's value-leading philosophy has received increasing attention from the world, Shantui International The overall strength of the company continues to increase.

Zoomlion Creates the Largest Tonnage Record of China's Truck Crane Export to South Asia On August 5, Zoomlion South Asia Regional India Branch signed an order for two 150-ton truck cranes with a regional state-owned power company in India, creating a domestic automobile The largest tonnage record for the export of crane products to the South Asian market.

Indian state-owned enterprises have very strict requirements on the quality, performance and after-sales service of construction machinery products. Even just a handful of European and American brands are invited to participate in the bidding. For various reasons, it is almost impossible for Chinese brands to enter Indian state-owned enterprises. Zoomlion’s team in South Asia beat the top competitors in the world, such as Europe and the United States, and Japan, and joined the banner of Zoomlion at the peak of the high-end market in India by closely cooperating with local partners.
