Building materials and hardware products are not only closely related to daily life, these two industries is leading the consumer market recovery. Favorable factors to stimulate the global economy gradually rebound in the international market in building materials and hardware industry has been gradually upward from the bottom.
Korean construction hardware import and export scale.
According to the statistics of the Korea International Trade Association, the Korean import and export of building materials and hardware projects, can be broadly divided into building hardware materials, refractory ceramic building materials, building stone. 1-9 January, 2003, the size of the major importers and exporters of architectural hardware products, with exports of $ 83.7 million, imports amounted to U.S. $ 79.6 million; refractory ceramic building materials export value was $ 6,150,000, imports amounted to 4, $ 5.6 million; building stone exports of $ 50,000, the imports amounted to $ 3,310,000. Export destination for building the main export destinations of the metal material is mainly the United States, Japan, China, Australia, Russia, Britain, Canada; refractory ceramic building materials main export destinations are Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Iran, Spain, Singapore, China, etc.; building stone main export destination was the United States, Mexico, Japan, France, Germany, Spain, Russia. Source of imports for building the United States, Japan, China, Singapore, Germany, Taiwan, China, France and other major sources of imports of the metal material; refractory ceramic building materials source for China, Germany, the United States, Japan, France, Italy , Malaysia, etc.; building stone of origin such as China, India, Italy, Egypt, Spain, the Philippines, Japan, the United States.
Japan ecological building materials demand
The slow economic recovery, impact of Japan's construction market has been declining trend. Continued downturn in construction investment environment, the amount of building materials and hardware production from a peak of 24 trillion yen in 1996, shrinking dramatically to 17.7900 trillion yen in 2003. To promote economic development, the Japanese government conducted a series of fiscal reforms, the development or amendment of the basic building standard law, quality assurance method, building materials resource recycling law. In line with the reform of the construction industry, building materials and hardware industry also advocated environmental symbiosis, normalized standards, save energy, improve the concept of building structures, trying to restore the building materials and hardware industry's decline.
Statistics show that the traditional Japanese building materials market demand is low, such as wood, glass, cement and tile imports have fallen considerably. Glass prices fell 65 percent in the past 10 years, timber prices fell 30% to 45%. Eco-building requirements and the use of low energy building materials, such as the natural materials of mineral wool thermal insulation multi-layer glass and air tightness and high stainless steel, aluminum window frames and other building materials market demand increasing.
In order to protect the home health and safety, in line with the true meaning of "barrier-free residential (BarrierFree)", thermal insulation and long-lasting, low environmental pollution, fire-resistant heat seismic safety materials, noise, anti-dew, and energy-saving building materials, is still Japan's future mainstream building materials products.
July 1, 2003, the revised Building Standard Law of Japan, the official implement SickHouse law, building materials prohibit the use of chlorpyrifos (chlorpyrifos), and limit the formaldehyde content in building materials. DIY upholstery products are also available for this regulations. The intention of Japan's exports of building materials manufacturers should pay attention to whether the violation of this provision.
New product innovation to a lot of steel and non-ferrous products companies have turned to civil construction, public utilities and large civil engineering in Japan is declining, and actively explore the general residential building construction materials market. Public works, emphasis on "function" and civil construction materials, emphasis on customer preferences. Japanese steel and iron products company is to adjust the operating direction, efforts to develop more to cater to consumers mouth stomach, and market acceptance of new products in order to expand demand.
Japan's NKK Steel Corporation, for the public want their own roof color can long maintain a fresh desire to recently successfully developed a new type of roof called "elves" steel plate, this plate can change color. General roof plate new color is very beautiful, but after some time, it will fade aging becomes difficult to see. NKK Corporation for this shortcoming in the plate coating mixed with additives, improved steel, the coating of natural oxidation results, use for some time, the color change more deeper, thus overcoming the problem of fading or aging. New color steel roof life of 15 years, this period does not need to re-paint or coating, durability is twice that of the conventional steel sheet roof. NKK Corporation has launched a total of six red, tea, green, blue, silver and dark gray and other colors, the expected market volume of approximately up to 500 tons a month.
Japanese homes still prefer to use the tile roof. Although the steel weight of the roof is only a tenth of the tile roof, the shock disaster prevention and security are higher than the brick top, but, according to a survey of the Japanese Iron and Steel Company, the Japanese steel roof penetration has not yet reached 10%. On this point, the Japan Iron and Steel Company launched both products of the steel roof safety and aesthetics of brick roof, known as the "tone kiln, steel plate made of the volume strip processing into tile-like wavy, use paint painted a mottled effect, to make it look like after Shaolian pottery. Day Steel companies hope these products can get the majority of consumers agree.
Japan Iron and Steel Union released data show that total pick of the 2002 building with steel single volume of 13,578,000 tons, and 1999 the total order amount is almost identical. During this period, the public civil engineering orders amount to reduce l9%, during the growth of the difference rests with civil offset. Building materials in non-ferrous metals market dynamics and steel building materials similar. Aluminum building materials in the peak period in 1997, a few years the demand for a total decline of 20%, and thus the aluminum building materials manufacturers mustering their efforts to develop new products for general residential customers, and expect to improve the market to buy gas.
Japan's Showa Denko company specializing in the production of aluminum alloy building materials, launched in October 2003 the seamless rain canopy. According to the survey, due often to receive the roof shed rain, rain canopies majority of causes of damage to the seams rust damage. New products, stressed that no seams, it is not easy to rust damage and prolong service life. Showa Denko rain canopy system shaped mechanical loading on trucks, and shipped directly to the site, according to the actual measured size of the spot forming process, according to the size required cutting installation. The company launched a total of six kinds of color products, and assume a 10-year warranty period, the market sales target of $ 5 billion yen a year since 2006.
Nippon Light Metal Company in November 2003, launched for general household use aluminum interior stairs. This lightweight aluminum alloy stairs, smart, beautiful, easy to maintain, but does not exist by the ant damage and effects of corrosion, long service life, very popular with consumers welcome. Nippon Light Metal launch of this product is mainly due to the amendments to the Building Code in Japan. May 2002, Japan announced the construction of the new revised law, to allow the floors, stairs and other residential structures the use of aluminum alloy.
