As the battle against the epidemic has arrived at a new moment, the ventilator surge in demand outside the border. However, the medical ventilator is so big and expensive that the ordinary hospital just equips in ICU. With the number of global COVID-19 critical patients has pushed, ventilators have become extremely scarce. Many countries in Europe and America began to buy ventilators from China. At present, many ventilator factories in China have full orders. The global demand for ventilators is now at least 10 times greater than the number of hospitals around the world.
Medical ventilators as an important component for first-aid and life support, there are widely used in the operating room, all kinds of wards, emergency place and so on. During the 2017 and 2018 year, the NHC consecutively published 6 articles, definitely promote the hospital of grade 2 and above to building five major medical centers. Construction and management standards have been issued and a list of the necessary equipment has been made clear for individual medical centers.
Medical ventilators as a kind of high-end medical equipment, The production of one ventilator depends on the mutual efforts of global supply chains. Ventilator industry chain including upstream of raw materials and midstream of software chips suppliers, downstream of the noumenon manufacturing enterprise, spread and application scenarios. COVID-19 causes some upstream factories to stop working and the international flights have been sharply declined. The export of the core component has become difficult. Besides, because of the production of ventilators have high technical requirements, boundary-crossing production also meets the quality problem.
The Upstream ventilators consist of turbo compressors, turbines, sensors, PCB, filter, valve and so on. We have a series of ventilator air inlet filter which made of 316L stainless steel. has the advantage of uniform aperture, high strength, good air permeability, high filtering accuracy, anti-corrosion and easy clean. There are also a variety of other models of the size of the filter core products can be selected. Welcome to contact us for further information.
In 2018, the consumption of our medical ventilators above 14700 units. But the domestic production capacity in 2018 is only 8,400. In 2019, the production of medical ventilators has reached 9900 units and the sales volume has reached 18200 units. In the first half of 2019, China exported respiratory medical devices and consumables to 166 countries and regions, with a total export volume of 360 million US dollars, up 8.41% year-on-year. Among them, the total export value of ventilators in China was $37 million, accounting for 10.33% of the total respiratory system export value. Exports of other respiratory systems totaled us $322 million, accounting for 89.67 percent of the total, a slight increase from 2018.
As the explosion of the COVID-19 in worldwide, the global COVID-19 is serious. Up to 12th Aug, the cumulative number of confirmed cases reached 89,444 in China and 20,415,265 in foreign countries. t is expected that the demand for our medical ventilators will continue to grow rapidly in 2020 and 2021. With many years of caring service, continuous innovation and effort, we have made good achievements in environmental protection, petroleum, natural gas, chemical industry, instrumentation, medical equipment, machinery and other industries. We looking forward to building steady and extensive strategic cooperation relations with friends from all circles and create a wonderful further together.
