Zhujiang cable manufacturers analyze the status quo of my country's Guangzhou cable industry

With the development of science and technology, in order to maintain the sustainable and healthy development of the wire and cable industry, the optical fiber industry industry urgently needs to optimize the structure, improve innovation capabilities, implement refined management, improve the industrial chain, and take the integrated road. So as to improve the comprehensive competition level of the industry, expand the upstream optical fiber preforms and wires and cables, and make the industry more profitable. Strengthen the cooperation between upstream and downstream enterprises of optical fiber and cable and the cooperation between optical fiber and cable enterprises, and transform from a global manufacturing center to a global R&D and service center. Domestic optical fiber companies have gradually realized self-production of optical rods, breaking the monopoly of foreign technology and prices.

However, with the advancement of China's shipbuilding industry, rail transit, aerospace, and UHV construction projects, my country's demand for special cable products or high-end cable products is unprecedented. Since it is difficult for domestic wire and cable manufacturers to produce high-end cable products that meet market demand, project builders can only purchase foreign cable products at a higher cost. In recent years, the current import status of my country's wire and cable industry is analyzed as follows.

From which aspects to see the status quo of my country's wire and cable industry

1. From the perspective of the increase in the number of wires and cables and the amount of imports

In the first three quarters of 2012, the imported coaxial wires and cables and other coaxial electrical conductors amounted to 3.81 kilotons, with a total value of US$194 million. In the first three quarters of 2013, the imported coaxial wires and other coaxial electrical conductors amounted to 4.01 kilotons. The amount is 452 million U.S. dollars. The growth rate of imports over the same period was 5.25%, and the growth rate of imports was 132.99%. In the first three quarters of 2012, imported vehicles, aircraft, marine ignition wiring sets and other wiring sets were 4.62 kilotons, with a total value of 163 million US dollars. In the first three quarters of 2013, imported vehicles, aircraft, marine ignition wiring sets and other wiring sets were 4.5 thousand tons, the total amount is 193 million U.S. dollars. It can be seen that although the number of imports has been greatly reduced, the total amount has increased significantly-the growth rate of the import amount over the same period is -2.60%, and the growth rate of the import value is 18.40%.

From the perspective of quantity growth and import value, “other electrical conductors (rated voltage>1000v) have a year-on-year growth rate of more than 50%, indicating that the domestic demand for high-voltage cables is still strong, while the import demand for low-voltage cables is relatively weak. Because such products are in a state of surplus in the country. From the perspective of export growth, the category with the highest year-on-year growth rate is "coaxial wires and other coaxial conductors", with a growth rate of 132.99%, which doubles.

2. From the perspective of the total import data of wire and cable trade

Statistics from the customs show that from January to May in 2014, my country's wire and cable trade imports totaled US$2.325 billion, or about 13.837 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 11.7% compared to 2013. The import volume of wire and cable was about 115,400 tons. , A year-on-year decrease of 2.7% compared to 2013. According to the data from the 2014-2018 China Wire and Cable Industry Market Research and Investment Profit Forecast Analysis Report released by the China Report Hall, the wire and cable import situation in April was relatively good, and the import value increased by 7.8% compared with the same period last year, which was an increase of 21.04 compared with the previous month. %. The import value in May dropped from April, down 12.34% month-on-month and 17.2% year-on-year.

Obviously, it is not difficult to see from the above data that my country is a well-deserved large importer of wires and cables. This aspect shows that my country is still inadequate in the improvement of product gold content, product technology, and product technology. On the other hand, it is also positive for my country's wire and cable market. The demand is amazing. It is precisely because of this that foreign wire and cable production giants have tried every means to enter the Chinese market to compete, and even set up factories directly in China. At present, my country's wire and cable industry has reached a turning point in history. For thousands of wire and cable manufacturers, there are only two paths ahead of them, either to become bigger and stronger, or to be eliminated.

As we all know, our country is a big producer of wire and cable industry and a big importer of wire and cable at the same time. Although my country has deservedly become the world's number one wire and cable producer with an output value of 1.2 trillion yuan, its products are mainly concentrated in the low-end market, resulting in a serious overcapacity of low-end products and insufficient supply and demand for high-end products.
