Taiwan’s Household Equipment, Hardware and Hand Tool Industry
Taiwan's hand tools are the world’s unsung champions! Every year, Taiwan’s tool industry earns US$4 billion from exports of OEM wrenches and pliers. Globally reputed as the “Kingdom of Hand Tools,” Taiwan is one of the world’s top three export countries in this sector, which is one of the island’s most prominent industries. Nearly 70% of enterprises in the hand tool industry are concentrated in the Taichung and Changhua areas.
Ongoing Growth for Two Years Running
According to Taiwan’s Department of Statistics, the number of plants and workers in the hand tool industry is steadily increasing year by year. As of 2017, there were 2,166 factories and about 48,000 workers. The majority of manufacturers are SMEs, and over 70% have fewer than 20 employees. With 70% of the factories centered in Taichung and Changhua, Taiwan’s hand tool industry has a complete upstream, midstream and downstream supply chain.
More than 50% of well-known international mid-range and high-end hand tool brands are purchased from Taiwan.
Taichung’s Golden Valley: The World’s No. 1 Machine Tool Industry Cluster
At the foot of Mt. Dadu in Taichung City is Taiwan’s “Golden Valley” of precision machinery, with over 300,000 employees and an annual output value of NT$900 billion. It is the world’s number one precision machinery cluster in terms of density and per unit area output value, hosting six industries: machine tools and machinery parts, photovoltaic panels, bicycles and parts, woodworking machinery, hand tools, and aerospace.
“Taiwan’s mid-range and high-end hand tool OEM ranks No. 1 in the world.”
- Huang Hsin-Te, Vice Chairman of Taiwan Hand Tool Manufacturers’ Association and Chairman
of AllProfessional Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Global Hardware Industry Trends

According to technical research consulting firm TechNavio, the global hand tool market will have reached US$125.5 billion in scale by 2022. Over 50% of this is taken up by the North American and Europe markets, home of the world’s largest hand tool import and export countries, with vibrant DIY cultures.

Germany is an important export expansion market for Taiwan’s hardware hand tools and DIY applications. According to the Taiwan External Trade Development Council’s iTrade platform, Germany is Taiwan’s third largest export market in this sector. In 2017, the output value of Taiwan’s exports to Germany reached US$218 million, an increase of 4.8%, second only to the United States and China. In addition, Germany is also Taiwan’s second largest export market of fasteners. In 2017, fasteners exported to Germany accounted for about 9.5% of the island’s total export value, amounting to nearly US$400 million, or US$2.6 per kilogram, and a 10.5% increase in average unit price compared to the previous year. German products with Taiwanese fasteners have long held leading positions in the global automotive, healthcare, and machinery and equipment manufacturing industries, an indication of Taiwan’s importance in Germany’s fastener market.

With a desire to make consumers feel safe, comfortable and secured, Sakura noticed that consumers’ choice for water heater is often limited by the installation environment. H10FF is easy to install and there is no need to set up an outdoor work shed, saving consumers’ costs and reducing potential risks. Comparing to other water heaters that only have big, medium and small fire and require frequent adjustments on the water temperature, it is equipped with a digital electronic constant temperature system and LED monitor. The embedded microcomputer also allows consumers to control and freely set the water temperature between 35°C-60°C. “Safety” is our priority. The multiple protection mechanisms of the eight major safety devices prevent the happening of all types of incidents and ensure consumers’ safety and comfortableness. With respect to the appearance, Sakura made a great effort on designing a brand new logo to show our new smart and innovative brand image.
This smart drying machine is Taiwan’s first embedded drying machine that automatically detect the change of humidity. After studying consumers’ use behavior through the DFSS product development design procedures, Sakura revealed that drying machine is at the end of the cleaning process, where consumers desire to have the plates “sterilized” and “dried”. However, as the number of plates changes according to the dining population, it is hard to choose ideal drying process. If there are too many plates or the drying schedule has been appropriately chosen, the plates are hardly be dried or be overdried with waste of electricity. A smart design of relevant products is therefore considered, so that consumers do not need to choose the drying schedule by themselves. Instead, the machine will make a decision based on the humidity inside the machine, and reach a better sterilization effect.

1. Torque classification by color: human factors engineering is also been implemented. Different color represent different torque to prevent improper use. 2. Anti-reversible structure: One way ratchets design keep the product from improper use and SOP for manufacturing process to guarantee the quality and stability of product. 3. Variety of BIT set: the adapter can be applied to different kind of tools, such as manual tool wrench, air impact wrench etc. 4. Overload protection: Slip occurs between the components to interrupt the transmission of power in the event of a torque exceeds the setting preventing the damage of overload. <br /> 5. Physics of friction application: Slip occur between the contact regions as the torque exceed the preset value, it stabilizes the torque transmitting to the output component.With all these benefit reduce the cost due to disposable tool during manufacturing process and the damage caused by improper torque transmitting to the screw.
