Recently, China has once again become the focus of international news, driven by a set of data that underscores its economic and trade resilience.
In December 2025, statistics released by the General Administration of Customs of China showed that in the first 11 months of 2025, the total value of China’s goods trade imports and exports rose steadily to RMB 41.21 trillion, representing a year-on-year increase of 3.6%. Among this, exports performed particularly strongly, reaching RMB 24.46 trillion with a year-on-year growth of 6.2%, while imports stood at RMB 16.75 trillion, up 0.2% year on year. After offsetting imports against exports, the trade surplus surged to RMB 7.71 trillion, equivalent to $1 trillion.
This $1 trillion trade surplus is by no means an easily achieved figure. Instead, it stands as a solid testament to China’s manufacturing sector, which has withstood multiple pressures from trade wars and tech wars over the past few years and carved out a competitive edge amid the fierce rivalry of global industrial chain restructuring.
China’s CNC hardware industry has maintained a robust overall growth trajectory: in recent years, the export scale of China’s CNC hardware products has been expanding continuously, with export volumes rising year after year. Take 2024 as an example, the export volume of CNC bending machines jumped by 30.72% year on year, reflecting the growing global market recognition of China’s CNC hardware products.
Diversified Market Development Export destinations have gradually expanded to cover numerous countries and regions worldwide. Beyond traditional markets such as the United States, the European Union, and Japan, emerging markets including India, Russia, Vietnam, Brazil, and Mexico have seen their share climb steadily. In 2024, CNC bending machines exported to these emerging regions accounted for 45.56% of the total export volume.
The competitive logic of the hardware industry has undergone a fundamental shift: the focus has moved from competing on price to competing on value, and from manufacturing products to delivering integrated solutions. In the current upswing of the industry, strategic choices matter more than mere hard work. Instead of fumbling for opportunities in the same place, choose Haozhifeng®.
