There are many metalworking fluid manufacturers and global consumption exceeds 4 million tons.
Metal working fluid plays a role in cooling, lubrication, rust prevention, and cleaning of workpieces and tools. Metalworking fluids can be divided into many product categories according to their different functions, including metal forming fluids, metal cutting fluids, metal processing fluids, etc. These different types of metalworking fluids are widely used in automotive parts, machinery manufacturing, mold manufacturing, electronics Electrical appliances and other fields.
According to the “2023 Global and China Metalworking Fluid Industry In-Depth Research Report” released by the Industrial Research Center, at present, global metal processing The main downstream applications of liquids are concentrated in automobile processing, mechanical processing and other industries. Among them, automobile processing has the largest application volume. Since 2021, as the global epidemic has gradually been brought under control and downstream industries have gradually recovered, the global metalworking fluid industry’s production capacity, output, output value, and demand have continued to grow. It is estimated that in 2023, global metalworking fluid consumption will be more than 4 million Ton.
In terms of industrial distribution, with the regional transfer of global industries, developing countries represented by China have taken over a large number of metal processing industries in developed countries. The market focus of metal working fluids has gradually tilted towards developing countries, promoting the development of metal processing industries in developing countries. Development of the machining fluid industry. Among them, China’s metalworking fluid industry is booming, technology continues to advance, and output continues to increase, occupying an important position in the global metalworking fluid industry. However, limited by the overall technical level, China’s metalworking fluid industry still lags behind developed countries in terms of product formula, product quality and additive production.
Industrial researchers believe that at present, there are many companies in the world that can produce metal working fluids, but the technical traction of the products is mainly concentrated in The United States, Japan, Europe and other developed countries and regions have relatively developed industries. They have applied metalworking fluids earlier, have rich research experience, and have many related patents. In recent years, some domestic metalworking fluid manufacturers have begun to continuously improve their technical level and product quality, and continue to make breakthroughs in metalworking fluid technology.
my country’s metalworking fluid market shows obvious regional distribution characteristics. East China, North China, and South China have developed economies and large-scale industries such as automobiles and machinery. They are the main demand areas for metalworking fluids and are home to a large number of metalworking fluid manufacturers. Foreign countries Well-known brands have also established distribution agencies or selected dealers in these areas, such as Frank Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Liannuo Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., Quaker Chemical (China) Co., Ltd., as well as Castrol and Sinopec Lubrication oil, PetroChina lubricants, etc., so the metal working fluids in these areas are highly marketed. In addition to the above-mentioned leading enterprises, my country’s metal working fluid market also gathers a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises. These enterprises are generally small in scale, their products are concentrated in the middle and low-end, and their market share is relatively limited.
