Fastener Demand Rises in Both Volume and Quality

According to the latest data from the General Administration of Customs and industry research institutions, the demand for China's fastener market continued to climb in the first three quarters of 2025, with both export volume and value achieving double-digit growth. The explosive demand in high-end fields such as new energy vehicles and wind power equipment, combined with the expansion of emerging markets along the "Belt and Road", has formed a dual driving force, accelerating the industry's transformation from scale expansion to quality improvement.

Data shows that from January to September 2025, China's total fastener export volume reached 4.673 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 10.9%, while the export value hit 8.96 billion U.S. dollars, up 7.7% year-on-year, showing a steady trend of "rising volume with stable prices". The export performance in September alone was particularly outstanding: the export volume stood at 516,600 tons and the export value reached 985 million U.S. dollars, with year-on-year growth rates of 8.2% and 9.4% respectively, confirming the sustained resilience of market demand.

The diversified upgrading of market structure has become an important support for demand growth. The traditional European and American markets remain solid, while emerging markets have emerged as a new growth pole. Statistics indicate that the export volume of fasteners to Southeast Asia, the Middle East and other regions increased by more than 15% year-on-year in the first three quarters, driven by the accelerated construction of local infrastructure and manufacturing capacity expansion.
