People's daily announces the new trend of medical devices

The growth rate of medical equipment export is still weak On November 19, the official website of the State Council forwarded the article of the people's daily, which pointed out that in the first 10 months, China's total value of foreign trade import and export reached 25.63 trillion yuan, an increase of 2.4% year-on-year, of which 13.99 trillion yuan, an increase of 4.9% Under the background of Global trade and investment downturn, facing the development environment full of challenges and uncertainties, China's import and export scale is generally stable, the structure continues to be optimized, and the quality is steadily improved In the first 10 months, the import and export of general trade, which has a long domestic industrial chain and can better reflect the independence of China's foreign trade, increased by 4.8%, 2.4 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate of foreign trade, of which the export reached 8.14 trillion yuan, an increase of 8.5% The exports of integrated circuit, photovoltaic, electric power and medical devices are all higher than the average level How about the situation of foreign trade? The data of enterprises is the most intuitive "Not long ago, we won the bid in India The goods are worth more than 20 million US dollars At the end of the year, there may be several large export orders, all under negotiation." Talking about the company's export situation this year, the chairman of a Hubei equipment company said, "the order growth is expected, and the growth speed is unexpected." The growth of enterprises benefits from "R & D" for many years In the first three quarters of this year, the scale of China's import and export was 7.01 trillion yuan, 7.66 trillion yuan and 8.24 trillion yuan, respectively, rising quarter by quarter In the past, for China's foreign trade, the double-digit growth rate is "commonplace" Compared with the past, the growth rate of foreign trade is down In this regard, experts believe that to evaluate the growth rate of foreign trade, we should not only look at domestic indicators, but also look at global data; we should not only look at the total scale, but also the internal quality By contrast, although the growth rate of China's foreign trade has declined, compared with other countries, China's import and export growth still leads the world's major economies, and its position as the largest country in goods trade is further consolidated For both sides of foreign trade, the import of one side is the export of the other If one side's market fails and imports become less, the other's exports will inevitably decrease The World Trade Organization recently announced the export situation of major global economies in the previous August In dollar terms, the export of the United States fell by nearly 1%, that of Japan by nearly 4.8%, and that of South Korea by nearly 10% Other important export countries also fell to varying degrees, with only China maintaining growth According to the public data, from the perspective of China's medical device export provinces (regions and cities), it is mainly concentrated in the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta The export volume of Guangdong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang accounts for 60% of China's total export volume In addition, among the top ten export provinces, except Shanghai and Liaoning, the export volume of other provinces increased significantly, and that of Hubei, Shandong and Anhui all exceeded 10% It is reported that although the export volume has increased, low-value consumables and low-end products are still the main export products of medical devices in China, and the industry relies heavily on low-cost elements such as raw materials and labor The top ten export products mainly include massage and health care equipment and medical consumables and dressings, accounting for 44.5% of the total export of medical equipment Among them, the export of massage appliances increased by 9.58% year-on-year, with the export volume reaching US $2.292 billion In recent years, China's high-end medical device industry has made rapid development with the support of the state and the efforts of enterprises, especially the image diagnosis equipment has gradually realized import substitution The influence of some products, such as ultrasound, monitoring and other equipment in the international market has gradually emerged.
