China industrial hand tools market is projected to witness a CAGR of 5.30% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 4.38 billion in 2023 to USD 6.62 billion in 2031. China is the leading manufacturing and assembling hub, demanding for machining infrastructure and equipment. The new companies, government support, and sustainable manufacturing are some of the major trends impacting the growth of market in the country. The demand for industrial hand tools is impacted through automotive, construction, and aerospace industry. Higher investment in these industries is likely to transform the industry with increasing demand through manufacturing, maintenance, and repairing sectors. Infrastructure projects, supported by government initiatives, are boosting the demand for hand tools. Furthermore, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and Dual-Circulation Strategy (DCS) are most likely to stimulate growth in the market as they both propose huge construction and manufacturing activities. Another crucial driving factor is the consumer inclination toward do-it-yourself (DIY) tasks that is increasing demand for user-friendly hand tools in China.
Advanced hand tools, with modern features such as monitoring tool tracking and smart ergonomics, enjoy ever-growing popularity. It is driven by the need to reduce the burden and facilitate end-user activities. Moreover, companies in China have also experimented with the materials and weight of these hand tools.
For instance, Ingco Tools Co., Ltd. offer long range of hand tools including fiberglass handle-based claw hammer, machinist hammer, stoning hammer, and ball pein hammer. The hammer is loaded with safety protection steel ring, and a drop-forged hammerhead hardwood handle.
Higher Domestic Demand and Technological Advancements to Fuel Market Growth
Projects involving assembly lines and domestic production are increasing significantly. In addition, the growing trend of DIY projects has increased demand for both power and manual tools. The industry is driven by the Chinese government’s infrastructure programs, particularly those which fall under the One Belt One Road (OBOR) plan, which have attracted large building investments.
Manufacturers achieve prototyping of hand tools by creating detailed 3D models using Computer-aided Design (CAD) software. This way, production streamlines precisely engineered tools that are ergonomically designed, ensuring a better grip and comfort. Prototypes offer a chance for functionality and usability tests before a headlong dash into mass production lines, thereby reducing the errors and increasing product quality. Material science development has brought in several stronger, lighter, and more resilient materials into the production of hand tools. High-grade steel and composite materials offer much better performance and greater strength to tools and make the characteristics of tool grip much better. Improved surface treatments and coatings enable the tool to resist wear and corrosion, extending its life. Companies have expanded the list of their hand tool products offered with the passage of years in evolution as there is more advanced manufacturing and DIY setting.
For instance, completing more than 20 years in hand tool business, Chinese manufacturer Diversitech Global Manufacturing Pvt. Ltd. have extended its product line with products such as chisels, punches, pry bars, socket bits, torque wrench sets, and utility knives. These products have been designed and manufactured in-house over the years.
