In the evolving global economic landscape, China's construction machinery industry has shown strong resilience and vitality, exports continue to maintain a rapid growth trend, becoming a bright business card in economic development.
It is not difficult to glimpse this booming trend from the data. According to the latest customs data, from January to April 2025, China's construction machinery import and export trade amounted to 18.947 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 8.51%. Among them, the export amount is particularly outstanding, up to 18.07 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 9.01%, while the import amount of 877 million U.S. dollars, a year-on-year decline of 0.86%. The eye-catching export data not only reflects the strong competitiveness of China's construction machinery in the international market, but also means that the industry's position in the global industrial chain is increasingly enhanced.
This achievement can not be separated from the industry's continuous technological innovation and product upgrading. At present, the global construction machinery industry is moving towards high-end, digital and green direction to accelerate the transformation of China's construction machinery industry to keep pace with the times, and actively respond to changes in the domestic and international market environment. Fruitful results in scientific and technological innovation, the level of advanced industrial base and industry chain modernisation is constantly improving, large super-large wheeled cranes and crawler cranes, super-large diameter shield machine, super-tonne-metre tower cranes and a series of advanced equipment have been successfully developed. At the same time, intelligent manufacturing and intelligent product applications have landed in more fields, and the digital construction of the industrial chain has continued to advance, realising efficient synergy among technology, R&D, production, management, logistics and other links to meet international market demand with better quality and intelligent products.
The concept of green development has also taken root in the field of construction machinery, promoting the industry towards a new journey of sustainable development. Electric construction machinery represented by electric loaders, forklift trucks and lifting platforms have seen remarkable growth. 8,139 electric loaders were sold from January to April, a year-on-year increase of 255%; 355,927 electric forklift trucks were sold during the same period, a year-on-year increase of 16.8%, accounting for 74.4% of the total forklift trucks sold. These green products, in line with the global pursuit of low-carbon development, has become the international market ‘meat and potatoes’, further broadening the road of China's construction machinery exports.
Looking ahead, despite the complexity and change of the external environment, the international situation is full of challenges, but with the macro-control efforts to increase the policy effect gradually appeared, support the stable operation of the industry and high-quality development of favourable factors continue to gather. It can be foreseen that throughout 2025, China's construction machinery industry will continue to maintain a stable operation and steady progress in the development trend, and the scale of exports is expected to further expand, writing a more brilliant chapter in the international arena!
