The past 10 years, metal industries and enterprises in scale, management, efficiency, product variety, quality, grade, production equipment and technical means, etc., are greatly shortened the distance with the world, even more than the international level in some aspects. China's light industry export volume accounted for 25% of total exports, exports of hardware industry ranked in the top three of light industry. Every corner of China hardware products almost all over the world, China is becoming a great power metal industry be worthy of the name.

From the time point of view, a few years ago, the overall grade of China's hardware industry is not too high, the small and medium-sized enterprise more, start low, for some small workshop; change in recent years is relatively large, one is improving the quality of the staff, responsible for such as the biggest national hardware market "at present, Beijing will build China Hardware City", is a doctor, doctoral professionals; two is the process and improve the management level, such as the the Great Wall Seiko factory, in the process, the management has the quite high level.

From the process perspective, the current level of domestic production technology is uneven, many foreign manufacturers to China for products processing base their international, many enterprises have entered into the mainland market.

Now is the Chinese hardware product renewal stage, from low-end to high-end products in the period of transition. The development of China's hardware industry is very favorable, transfer process in foreign products to domestic production, will include raw material, some foreign advanced production technology, management pattern is taken together.

From the traditional hardware point of view, is a tool this one, such as hand tools, hydraulic tools, electric tool development. Two is the architectural hardware, decorative hardware, update speed.

In addition, the demand of hardware components market. Hebei Handan, a small processing plants, production technology is backward, it across the sales force reached about 100000. China's hardware industry after ten years of accumulation and improved steadily, is now the biggest production country in the world, export has steadily increased year by year.

Among them, the export amount is the largest tool products, $5340000000; the second is building hardware, $4340000000. The export of $2230000000, $680000000 of exports. Most of the country is the United States exports, Japan, Europe, korea. China's hardware industry export is growing at the rate of 8%. Last year, exports of metal products exceeded $5000000000, ranking the third in the light industry export ranking. Due to the expansion of Chinese hardware manufacturing and raising the level of productivity, is expected within the next 5 years, China's hardware products will continue to maintain steady growth of over 10% per year. Hardware mechanical and electrical products 10 months ago, China's import and export volume of more than $500000000000. Surplus to further expand, amounted to $7060000000, accounting for the same period in the national trade surplus of 64%.

Believe in the future, China's hardware industry will tend to become more and more diversified development, the technical level of the industry will be more and more high quality products have increased steadily. Management and further regulation of the industry, and the implementation of a number of related industries preferential policies, China's hardware industry will be more and more with the development of space.
