Chinese Pharmaceutical Industry is Hot Market for Flow Control and Treatment

The Chinese flow control and treatment market is growing at double-digit rates and will reach just under $1 billion annually by 2017.  This the aggregated forecast in a number of McIlvaine Market reports.  (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

China accounts for 20 percent of the world’s population but only 1.5 percent of the global drug market.

The domestic pharmaceutical market is highly fragmented and inefficient with nearly 6,000 domestic pharmaceutical manufacturers.  Entry to the WTO has brought a stronger patent system. Medical insurance is now more widespread and pharmaceutical-related regulations have been stiffened.

China’s domestic companies account for 70 percent of the market, and the top ten companies about 20 percent.  Major international pharmaceutical companies have targeted China as the biggest growth market.  They have also recognized the talent pool in China and are setting up research facilities in the country.

The Chinese drug market is projected to grow 22 percent a year, reaching about $200 billion in 2017.  Flow control and treatment will represent 0.5 percent of the expenditures. Liquid cartridges will be the leading treatment product and valves will be the leading flow control revenue generator.

European Purchases of Industrial Pumps will Exceed $9 Billion by 2015

European industrial pump purchases will grow moderately in the next two years and surpass $9 billion in 2015.  This is the conclusion reached by McIlvaine in Pumps World Markets.  (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

European Pump Sales $ Millions

Centrifugal pump purchases will exceed the combined total of the other pump types. Europe will remain a major exporter as well as purchaser of industrial pumps. However, many European pump manufacturers are setting up manufacturing operations in Asia. The rising cost of energy in Europe combined with the faster growing demand in Asia has dictated these decisions.

The power industry remains a substantial purchaser in spite of the program to switch to renewables.  There are some new coal-fired power plants in planning and construction. The big demand for pumps is in life extension for the numerous older power plants.

Five of the world’s top pump companies are headquartered in Europe. They are Grundfos, Sulzer, Weir, KSB and Wilo. The main pump operations of the largest pump company, Xylem, are in Europe.
