1. Competition status

The survey results show that the market demand for flowmeters in China is very strong. The competition conditions in all instrumentation and metering industries are similar to those in the flowmeter product market. Factors such as product price, quality, and after-sales service are very important.

In addition, most manufacturers indicated that they have a product R&D department within the company and have been deeply involved in research.

2. Market and sales

The market area of ​​the flowmeter manufacturers interviewed was mainly in East China, North China, and South China. This result is related to the status quo of China's regional economic development. Nationwide, the above three regions have relatively developed economies, various types of economic entities are relatively concentrated, and household consumption levels are relatively high. The market promotion methods adopted by flow meter product manufacturers are mainly based on “establishing corporate websites” and “magazine advertising”. In addition, most manufacturers of flowmeter products do not have branches or offices in various regions and cities, and sales channels are mainly based on the direct sales of manufacturers.

3. Flowmeter Product Manufacturer Profile

The manufacturers of flowmeter products subject to this survey are mainly SMEs, and the number of employees is between 10 and 100. Secondly, nearly 50% of manufacturers started to produce flowmeter products before 1995, which has a long history. At a certain level, this also reflects the technology and development of China's flowmeter products. The survey flowmeter manufacturers surveyed widely believed that the technical level is more important in the industry, and that the industry threshold is not high. On the one hand, the development of flow meter technology has matured, and the flow meter production and research technology level in China is not lower than the international advanced level.

On the other hand, although China's flow meter manufacturers are mainly located in the regions of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and southern China, the number is large, and the quality of their products varies greatly. This is the result of "the threshold is not high," but it is also the reason.
