Injection molding in 2025New market trends

According to the latest data from the China Plastic Machinery Industry Association,the global import scale of injection molding equipment is expected to exceed $8.2 billion in 2025,with the import volume of precision electric injection molding machines increasing by 23% year-on-year.In terms of equipmentIn the field,enterprises face three core challenges: Technical parameter compliance review,Control of hidden costs in import procedures,Equipment commissioning and after-sales coordination.

Core operational processes of agency services

The standard operating procedures for professional agency services consist of four stages:

• Demandconfirmationstage
  • Equipmenttechnicalparameterreview(focusonverifyingclampingforceaccuracyof±0.1%)
  • DocumentationandCEcertificationpre-review
  • PredictionofImportTariffClassification(Threenewsub-categoriesaddedunderHSCode8480in2025)
