Current Situation of Filter Manufacturing Industry in 2023

Release time:

Dec 13,2023

A filter is an accessory that filters impurities or gases through filter paper or other materials. Generally refers to the car filter, which is an engine accessory. According to different filtering functions, it is divided into: oil filter, fuel filter (gasoline filter, diesel filter, oil-water separator, hydraulic filter), air filter, air conditioning filter, etc. The engine has three types of filters: air, oil, and fuel, generally called "three filters", plus an air-conditioning filter, commonly known as four filters.

1. Industry overview

China's filter industry has maintained a rapid growth rate. In 2020, industry growth will slow due to the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. In 2021, the total industrial output value of my country's filter industry was about 32 billion yuan, an increase of 15% year-on-year; sales revenue was 31.5 billion yuan, an increase of 16% year-on-year. In 2022, the total industrial output value of China's filter industry will reach 37 billion billion yuan, an increase of 15.6 percent over the same period last year, and sales revenue will reach 36.5 billion billion yuan, an increase of 15.9 percent over the same period last year.

2. Industry characteristics

(1) unreasonable product structure

At present, the product structure of China's filter manufacturing industry has certain irrationality. On the one hand, the product range is not complete, and some high-end products still rely on imports, such as diesel common rail system filters, automotive air-conditioning filters, etc. On the other hand, the product quality is not stable enough, and some products have quality defects, such as broken filter paper, poor sealing performance, and low filtration efficiency. These problems affect the market competitiveness and development potential of China's filter manufacturing industry.

(2) Continuously improve the technical level

In recent years, with the continuous development of China's filter manufacturing industry, the technical level has also been greatly improved. On the one hand, the introduction and digestion of foreign advanced technology, such as the use of new filter paper materials, improve the filter structure design, improve the filter performance parameters. On the other hand, it is necessary to increase the intensity of independent innovation, such as developing new filter products, applying for patent technology, and participating in the formulation of industry standards. These measures are conducive to improving the technical level and core competitiveness of China's filter manufacturing industry.

(3) Environmental protection requirements are getting higher and higher

With the development of China's economy and society and the improvement of people's living standards, the awareness of environmental protection is becoming stronger and stronger. As an important part of the engine, the filter directly affects the emission performance and fuel economy of the engine. Therefore, the filter manufacturing industry is also facing higher and higher environmental protection requirements, such as reducing the resistance loss of the filter, improving the filtration efficiency of the filter, extending the service life of the filter, and reducing the waste of the filter. These requirements for the filter manufacturing industry put forward a higher level of technology and management.
