Construction machinery continues to pick up: everyone's "rise" is really "up"

With the release of the sales data of excavators, loaders, bulldozers and other construction machinery products in January, the warming industry trend and strong market demand finally have the support from real data. According to the statistics of China's construction machinery business survey, in January 2017, 25 excavator companies included in the statistics sold more than 4,500 excavators, an increase of nearly 54% compared with January 2016; 25 major domestic loader manufacturers sold a total of 4,495 loaders of various types, achieving positive year-on-year growth for four consecutive months, an increase of 16.33% year-on-year in January 2016; The country's 10 major bulldozer manufacturers sold a total of 322 bulldozers, an increase of 19.26% over January 2016. Taking the most representative excavator as an example, in January 2017, small digging, medium digging and large digging increased by 55%, 41% and 94% year-on-year respectively, and the sales volume of the whole line of products increased significantly.

Offline sales are booming, and the number of online inquiries is also high. Judging from the inquiry statistics of the iron arm mall, in January, although affected by the Spring Festival holiday, the total number of inquiries was still nearly 1,000, and the inquiries for excavators, loaders, forklifts, bulldozers and other products continued. Still taking the excavator as an example, from the point of view of the inquiry brand of the iron arm mall, Sany and other brands have obvious advantages in attracting attention.

Behind the stability, growth and rise

Since 2011, the sluggish construction machinery market finally ushered in a real recovery at the end of 2016. According to relevant data, the cumulative sales of major products in the construction machinery industry in 2016 increased by 10.2% year-on-year, of which excavators sold more than 70,000 units in 2016, a year-on-year increase of 24.8%, which was the first positive in the past five years.

People who have experienced this period understand that from the cliff-like decline, to the bottom of the stabilization, and then to steady growth, the construction machinery market is really transforming and upgrading to achieve its own transformation.

Judging from the current market development trend, the main factor that boosts the construction machinery industry to continue to improve is the high growth rate of infrastructure investment. According to the 2017 Chinese Academy of Social Sciences released the "Economic Blue Book" predicts that the growth rate of fixed asset investment in 2017 will reach about 8%, and infrastructure will continue to become the main force for stable investment and even stable growth, and professionals believe that the growth rate of infrastructure investment in 2017 will remain at about 20%. At present, there are 22 provinces that have clearly announced the fixed asset investment target for 2017, with a cumulative investment target of more than 40 trillion yuan.

In addition to infrastructure, PPP, mining and rural construction are also the main focus of efforts. Judging from the excavator sales data, in recent months, the year-on-year growth rate of large and small digging has continued to grow relatively high, especially the growth rate of large digging, and the year-on-year growth rate has been around 100% for 4 consecutive months. Combined with the use of different types of excavators and the actual downstream, the growth momentum of large excavation mainly comes from large-scale infrastructure, PPP projects and mines, while small excavation mainly benefits from the growth of municipal construction and rural infrastructure.

Excavator is the leading variety of the construction machinery industry, but also the market sensitivity * 5661 varieties, prosperity is usually * first other construction machinery varieties range from 3-6 months. As excavators continue to pick up, bulldozers, loaders andTruck cranesSales have picked up, and the industry boom has shown a diffusion trend. China Construction Machinery Business Network * deep analysts said that in infrastructure, PPP projects and other factors, earth-moving machinery and lifting machinery chain is expected to usher in rapid growth in the future.

In addition, with broad prospects of the "Belt and Road" is still playing a positive role, China Construction Machinery Business Network editors said that with the advancement of the "Belt and Road", with their own technology and cost advantages, will accelerate Central Asia, the Middle East, South Africa, Southeast Asia and other regions of the demand for construction machinery will continue to grow. Industry insiders said that as the country continues to carry out major infrastructure construction, will bring a new round of construction machinery market, excavator sales are expected to continue to rise, is expected to be better in 2017 than in 2016.
