China's general hardware industry is optimistic of strong sales in 2011, with growth projections reaching 30 percent. Makers are positive that overseas demand will continue to strengthen amid the gradual recovery of the global economy.
Customs statistics for the first seven months of 2010 attest to increasing market interest, with revenue from shipments rising 37 percent YoY to reach $6.7 billion. Should the sector continue to perform at this pace, earnings are likely to exceed precrisis figures and breach $10 billion.
This report focuses on the main general hardware exported from China -- fasteners, door, window and furniture fittings, mechanical and electronic locks, safes, and tape and adhesives.
