Twenty years ago, who would believe that Chinese-made home appliances could play an important role in the US market and even determine the price trend of the global home appliance market. Today, who would suspect that after 10 years, the US packaging market will use a large number of packaging machinery semi-automatic balers from China.
The open China is constantly creating miracles that make the world feel incredible. Perhaps the 10-year argument is too conservative, because China is experiencing a process of accelerating development. As a free and open market, the door of the United States has always been open to Chinese packaging companies. The question is only when and how Chinese packaging companies go in and succeed.
Whether China's packaging machinery can open the US market is related to the technical level of China's packaging machinery, and on the other hand to the shape of the US packaging machinery market.
As a highly developed liberalized market, the phenomenon of “polarization” of American packaging machinery manufacturers is obvious. Small and exquisite electronic products represented by testing and coding devices have developed rapidly in the United States; general-purpose packaging machines based on metal packaging machines, heat shrink packaging machines and sealing machines also account for a considerable proportion; The large packaging machinery production line, mainly installed, labeling machine and capping machine, is basically not produced in the United States. The market is almost entirely occupied by imported equipment, especially those produced by German and Italian manufacturers.
Vertical packaging machines have rapidly developed China's packaging machinery manufacturing and industrial design levels through imitation, introduction of technology and capital, and global procurement. Today, China's packaging machinery manufacturers can easily obtain some key components through global procurement, thus rapidly improving the technical level and reliability of the equipment. If we say that Chinese-made machinery can't compete with German, Italian and Japanese products on automatic balers, labeling machines, sealing machines and robots, then in some low-tech products, China is currently producing. Many packaging machines are already able to meet the requirements of the US market and are most likely to make breakthroughs in the short term. In particular, some general-purpose packaging machinery, such as semi-automatic balers, wrappers, filling machines, labeling machines, sealing machines, vacuum packaging machines, weighing / filling / sealing machines, etc., the cost of products made in China is less than the United States. Half of the product is extremely competitive. The low price is the best stepping stone for Chinese packaging machinery to enter the US market.
