Fastener Expo Shanghai 2025
Domestic Sales Still Focus on Price Cutting, While Exports Turn to Emerging Markets
Less than a month after IFS China ended at the end of this May, the 15th Fastener Expo Shanghai was successfully held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from June 17 to 19.
Called the “Global Innovation Platform for the High-end Fastener Industry”, Fastener Expo Shanghai is often regarded as one of the barometers for observing Chinese fastener industry. This year, Halls 1.1, 2.1, and 3 were opened, attracting more than 1,200 local and overseas exhibitors to display a wide range of standard/non-standard fasteners, automotive connectors, riveting products & technologies, metal formed parts, made of carbon steel, stainless steel, and special alloys, as well as cold heading equipment, heat treatment equipment, surface treatment, molds & dies, inspection equipment & lab instruments, etc on the 70,000 sq. m. of exhibition space. A few Taiwanese machinery and equipment companies also attended the exhibition in the hope of increasing orders from local fastener manufacturers in China.
The visitors this year were mainly from domestic China and not many from overseas. According to Fastener World's on-site staffs, there were overseas buyers from Kazakhstan, Turkey, Malaysia and Peru coming to Fastener World's booths, and Japanese visitors were also seen sometimes, probably due to the dates of two similar shows (one in May and the other in June) being too close to each other.
During the exhibition, many exhibitors and visitors also seized the time to exchange views on the recent US tariffs, EU anti-dumping, currency exchange rates, market challenges, business opportunities in emerging markets and other issues. Some Chinese exhibitors told Fastener World’s staffs that many Chinese enterprises are facing tough challenges in their business operations due to the anti-dumping duty from the EU, which is over 90%, and the uncertainty of U.S. tariffs, as well as the lack of subsidies from the Chinese government. However, some exhibitors said that many Chinese companies have already turned to non-European and non-U.S. markets, and are now doing well in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. In terms of domestic sales, some exhibitors said that the market is still in the doldrums, and the strategy of price cutting in China is still a difficult problem for many companies to deal with.
