The structure of the panel furniture machinery industry is relatively scattered, benefiting from consumption upgrades, automation and the concentration of full decoration trends is expected to increase.
Panel furniture machinery comes from Germany, Italy and other advanced woodworking machinery manufacturing countries in the world.
In the 1970s, Germany first developed an edge banding machine for edge banding of cut thick wood-based panels, which can realize the automation of plate feeding, sizing, sealing, trimming and other processes;
Italy initially led the development of panel furniture machinery, creating precision panel saws and multi-row drills for cutting wood-based panels. Meanwhile, sanding machines emerged in Japan, Italy, and the Netherlands. These countries have consistently commanded a high level of technology, keeping their research and development capabilities at the forefront. Germany and Italy, in particular, maintain a leading technical position in panel furniture machinery globally.
Since the 1990s, however, China has introduced foreign technologies and launched panel furniture machinery aimed at the low-end market. Today, China’s panel furniture machinery products cover a range of essential equipment and auxiliary machinery for panel furniture manufacturing, supporting downstream companies with diverse equipment choices across various grades.
Due to the relatively low entry barrier in China’s low-end furniture machinery market, most manufacturing enterprises operate on a smaller scale, with product isomorphism and homogeneity fairly common. Yet, leading domestic companies with advanced technology are expanding their market share in the mid- to low-end market segments by offering cost-effective products. Gradually, these enterprises are breaking the dominance of foreign brands in the high-end sector, achieving domestic substitution.
Currently, while a performance gap remains between Zicar panel furniture machinery and international counterparts, this gap is continually narrowing, with leading domestic firms catching up in terms of technology and quality.
