In the electrical industry, as a traditional low-voltage electrical product, low-voltage contactor has been very mature. Sufficient market demand has spawned a large number of low pressure contactor manufacturers. If enterprises want to enter the low-voltage contactor market and benefit from it, they need to have a relatively full understanding of the current mainland low-voltage contactor market, including the main aspects.

As a traditional low - voltage electrical product, low - voltage contactor has been very mature. The manufacturing process of low-voltage contactor is not complicated, the technical content is relatively low, and the sufficient market demand has given rise to a large number of low-voltage contactor manufacturers; The low voltage contactor with different load current also shows a great difference in price, the price covers the range from ten to several thousand yuan. If enterprises want to enter the low-voltage contactor market and benefit from it, they need to have a relatively full understanding of the current low-voltage contactor market in mainland China, including the main application industries, industrial chains of various industries, potential industries, etc.

According to the recent survey report "2008 low-voltage contactor Market in Mainland China" conducted by Beijing JFUnited Consulting Co., LTD., low entry threshold, low brand concentration, strong market demand and good market prospects are positive factors for investment in low-voltage contactor market. With the increasingly fierce competition in the industry, product homogenization and narrow profit space are also important factors that investors have to consider.

In this report, JF jointly studied the main application market segments of low-voltage contactors such as electric power, machinery, petrochemical, metallurgy and rail transit, and analyzed the industrial chain of each segment, and pointed out the current competition situation of these segments in terms of market concentration and price competition pattern. At the same time, the report also makes targeted analysis of enterprises with different market shares in terms of brand, channel, logistics and key market segments.

JFUnited's investigation report showed that the market size of low pressure contactors in mainland China reached 4.76 billion yuan in 2007, and maintained a relatively good momentum of growth in the next few years. At present, the main applications of low-voltage contactors are concentrated in machinery and electric power fields, accounting for about 72.5% of the total sales. And these two industries have also maintained a rapid growth momentum, therefore, in the field of power and machinery to occupy a better resource is the major enterprises pay more attention to the work.

Low pressure contactor market concentration is not high, especially in the low-end product market. Schneider currently holds a large market share (about 10%) in the mainland low-voltage contactor market, while the market share of other enterprises is below 7%. The top 5 companies only account for 35.1% of the total market capacity, and the remaining 64.9% is shared by numerous low-voltage contactor manufacturers.

At present, a large part of mainland low-voltage contactors are purchased by low-voltage complete equipment manufacturers, and these enterprises are more sensitive to the price. Therefore, the mainland low - voltage contactor market prices are generally low. At present, the medium market of low-voltage contactor in mainland China is basically occupied by foreign brands. Most of the products of mainland enterprises are positioned at the low-end market, and the competition is fierce. However, the increased competition in the overall market cannot hide the good growth of some market segments for the increase in earnings. The subdivided application industry of low pressure contactor is mainly traditional industry, the development of these industries is the premise of the development of low pressure contactor market. The low pressure contactor market is greatly affected by the development of the demand industry.

In the report, JFUnited conducted an in-depth analysis of the overall market for low-voltage contactors and of supply and demand in major market segments. The rapid growth of the installed capacity of power generation, the substantial increase of the output of mechanical products, the growth of investment in petrochemical industry and metallurgy all have an impact on the future growth of low pressure contactor. From the perspective of subdivided application market, electric power, machinery, petrochemical, metallurgy, rail transit and other fields show different procurement characteristics, which is the key point for low-voltage contactor manufacturers to stand firm in the competition and improve their market share, and also a must for new enterprises to grasp.

At present, low-voltage contactor products have become very mature. Most of the major enterprises in the low-voltage contactor market were established in the 1990s or entered mainland China and occupied most of the market shares. These enterprises have relatively strong strength. However, this does not mean that new entrants do not have survival opportunities. Among the surveyed enterprises, there are still some enterprises that have entered the market in recent years and achieved good performance. These enterprises have found and grasped the potential demand of the low-voltage contactor market and achieved success. At present, there is little difference in the products of low-voltage contactors, and the products of most manufacturers can be replaced with each other. Therefore, it is an important way for enterprises to expand their market share to seize the demand of subdivided application industries.

The fierce competition in the low-voltage contactor market can also drive the overall development of the whole market and make the electrical appliance industry develop faster.
