China's tools industry is anticipating exports to remain on an upward track this year, but growth will be slower than in 2011. Many suppliers see the economic difficulties in the US and the EU dampening overall demand, keeping increases in revenue below 10 percent.
Nonetheless, the two areas will remain key destinations in coming months. Despite the projected contraction in demand, most companies still plan to strengthen their presence in the US and the EU since tool consumption in these markets continues to be unmatched by alternative destinations. For most of the suppliers in this report, the two account for the bulk of orders.
This report covers the major products of China's tools industry, namely hand and power implements, garden tools and related storage systems.
