The global fastener export market maintains a positive growth trend in 2026. Official customs data shows that from January to July 2026, the total export value of Chinese fastener products including expansion bolts, various screws, bolts and nuts reached over 6.18 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 6.00%, achieving steady growth in both export volume and unit price. From the perspective of segmented data, the average export price of high-strength fasteners and engineering expansion bolts increased significantly, driving the overall profit level of the export industry to continue to rise.

In terms of export market layout, while maintaining stable supply to traditional European and American markets, the industry has further expanded emerging markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. Driven by local infrastructure construction and industrial supporting demand, the export volume of engineering-grade expansion bolts, construction screws and high-strength bolt and nut sets to emerging markets has increased rapidly. At the same time, the industry is continuously optimizing the export product structure, reducing the proportion of low-value ordinary standard parts and increasing the export share of customized, high-precision and high-performance fastener products.

In terms of industrial supporting links, the popularization of automated production and packaging processes has effectively improved the consistency of fastener product quality and export delivery efficiency, solving the pain points of unstable product precision and long delivery cycle in traditional bulk export. Industry insiders said that with the continuous improvement of global cross-border trade convenience and the gradual recovery of downstream manufacturing and construction industries, the fastener export market will maintain a stable growth trend in the second half of 2026, and the product export structure will be further optimized towards high-end and high-value-added direction.
