In the past decade, China's gate valve industry has accelerated its expansion overseas, moving from traditional foreign trade to deep internationalization. By 2025, the export value of domestic gate valves will reach 16.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 18%, with the top ten brands such as Suzhou Neway and Shanghai Qizhong accounting for over 70% of the export volume. The market has expanded rapidly from the United States (accounting for 16% of the total valve exports), Russia and Germany to emerging markets along the 'the Belt and Road' in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The overseas mode has undergone a qualitative change, with enterprises shifting from 'remote supply' to 'regional operation'. For example, Fangzheng Valve has established a subsidiary in Dubai, Jiangsu Huaying has jointly built a factory in the United Arab Emirates, and Qingdao Weilong has laid out production capacity in Thailand to be close to customers and embedded in the global supply chain. At the same time, the industry has achieved breakthroughs in the high-end market by obtaining international certifications such as API and CE, as well as technological breakthroughs. In areas that were previously monopolized by foreign countries such as petrochemicals, nuclear power, and deep sea, the localization rate of high-end gate valves has increased from 15% in 2015 to 48% in 2025. This overseas expansion is not only an extension of the market, but also a microcosm of the upgrading of China's manufacturing industry from 'selling to the world' to 'integrating into the global' system.
