After years of development

　　The number of valve enterprises in China ranks first in the world, with more than 6000 valve enterprises of various sizes. The valve industry is developing very rapidly. Especially in Oubei Town, Yongjia, Wenzhou and Yongqiang, Longwan, Wenzhou, the number of valve enterprises accounts for half of the national total, and the scale is very concentrated and huge. After more than 30 years of development, under the unique cluster mode of Wenzhou, the distribution of valve industry chain is mature. In addition to some cast iron valves, including various types of valves made of carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel and other special steels, more than 80% of China's products come from these two places. It is China's largest valve production base and the largest valve export base. The fly in the ointment is that the living environment of small and medium-sized valve enterprises in Wenzhou is poor. The government has hardly made substantive assistance to the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, nor has it publicized the whole industry. Although it proposes to integrate the whole valve industry, it is still in a situation of only focusing on the big and ignoring the small. Domestic end customers always have inertia bias against Wenzhou valve products, although they may be using products from Wenzhou, but the origin on the nameplate is not. In terms of quality, most of the products of Wenzhou valve enterprises are getting better and better, but they can only do OEM production for other well-known enterprises. Financing is difficult, land costs are high, and profits are maximized and compressed in the fierce competition. For small and medium-sized valve enterprises in Wenzhou, there are many difficulties, and most of the road to brand is still a dream.

　　China valve industry data

　　From January to November 2007, China's valve and cock manufacturing industry achieved a cumulative total industrial output value of 84288398000 yuan, an increase of 31.47% over the same period of last year; The accumulated product sales revenue was 80571055000 yuan, an increase of 29.36% over the same period of last year; The total accumulated profit was 5772097000 yuan, an increase of 44.16% over the same period of last year. From January to August 2008, China's valve and cock manufacturing industry achieved a cumulative total industrial output value of 73321603000 yuan, an increase of 27.02% over the same period of last year; The cumulative product sales revenue was 70451147000 yuan, an increase of 27.27% over the same period of last year; The total accumulated profit was 4470009000 yuan, an increase of 15.37% over the same period of last year. During the "Eleventh Five Year Plan" and the next few years, China's petrochemical, natural gas, metallurgy, electric power, urban construction and other industries have a large demand for valves. It is expected that during the "Eleventh Five Year Plan" period, China's total demand for valves will reach 34.5 billion yuan. Therefore, the valve industry has a huge market development space.

　　Problems in valve Market

　　The main problems in the valve market are:

　　1、 In order to pursue interests, some operators buy low-quality valves and print famous brands and certificates of well-known manufacturers, causing serious harm to the reputation of qualified valve enterprises.

　　2、 When renovating the valves, a few operators sell them for the second time after repainting the waste valves, which brings serious potential safety hazards to the project quality. When buying valves, do not be greedy for cheap, that is, valve products with high quality and low price are understandable but unrealistic. Due to various reasons, the valve price fluctuates greatly in various periods before and after. It's not too much to compare the goods to 10 at the time of purchase. It's best to visit the manufacturer and supervise the test in person. Strategic planning of valve manufacturing industry after the State Council issued several opinions on accelerating the revitalization of equipment manufacturing industry, it will drive the overall revitalization of equipment manufacturing industry. Therefore, the national development and Reform Commission, together with China Machinery Industry Federation, China Communications Association and other relevant national departments, has long put forward plans to gradually realize the localization of valves for major equipment during the Tenth Five Year Plan and the eleventh five year plan, including the localization of key valves for million kilowatt nuclear power plants and valves for million ton large ethylene complete equipment, Through the introduction of key technologies and independent development, and given many concessions in regulations and policies, relevant valve enterprises seize the opportunity and actively take the initiative to do a good job in the localization of valves. A consensus has been reached, and gratifying progress has been made in the localization of valves. The valve industry should speed up the establishment of a new technological development system for independent development and innovation capability based on the optimization of industrial structure, energy conservation and environmental protection, independent innovation, reform and opening up and people-oriented. In terms of the localization of products in the valve industry by the end of the eleventh five year plan, 95-100% of the large-scale ethylene special valves should be covered. The special valves for coal chemical industry are mainly high-temperature hydrogenation. The key is to solve the material sealing pair, and some control and driving devices should also reach more than 90%; In terms of ultra supercritical thermal power station technology, the localization proportion of valves should reach 80% - 100%. To realize the localization of key valves and key technologies, the task is arduous. As long as our valve peers work together and focus on the same goal, the localization of valves will be realized. The valve industry plays a very important role in the development of the national economy as an important link in the preparation of the manufacturing industry. It plays a very important role in important fields related to the national economy and the people's livelihood, such as megawatt nuclear power, large clean and efficient power generation, supercritical thermal power, gas steam cycle, large hydropower and pumped storage, large air-cooled power plants and large circulating fluidized bed boilers; Million tons of large ethylene complete equipment, p-xylene, benzoic acid and polyester complete equipment; Large coal chemical complete equipment; Large underground coal mining, lifting and washing equipment; Large ships, large chemical ships, aircraft carriers, CNG; Atmospheric treatment, urban industrial wastewater treatment, urban pipe network transformation and other aspects all need a large number of domestic valves as supporting facilities. We should meet the requirements of the national economic industry for valve manufacturing, realize the scientific development of the whole industry, take the lead in development, develop well and rapidly, seize the market opportunities at home and abroad, forge ahead, and strive to build China into the main production base of valves in the world.
