The main markets were the US (\u20ac177.2m, -4.3%), France (\u20ac175.7m, +19%), and Germany (\u20ac121.5m, -2.4%). Other destinations included Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, China, Sweden, Turkey, and Belgium. Sales to Germany and China remained stable, while exports to France increased. Exports to the UK declined by 30%.<\/p>\n<p>Italy\u2019s imports of wood and furniture technology fell by 25.1% in 2024, down to \u20ac228.1m. Germany remained the primary supplier but dropped nearly by half, from \u20ac157.4m to \u20ac83.7m. China increased its share by 36.3%, reaching \u20ac40.2m, while Spain rose to third place with \u20ac14.2m, with a 41% increase. Austria and India both recorded declines, and Finland had an unexpected growth, rising from \u20ac315,000 to \u20ac4.7m. Other suppliers included Switzerland, France, the UK, and the US.<\/p>\n<p>Germany\u2019s woodworking machinery exports (excluding tools) totalled \u20ac2.485bn in 2024, a decrease of 11.6% from \u20ac2.813bn in 2023. This decline outpaced the 8.1% drop recorded by Italy. The main export destinations were the US (\u20ac362.9m, up 1.5%), China (\u20ac213.2m, down 18%), and France (\u20ac168m, down 14.3%). Other markets included Austria, Poland, Canada, the UK, Egypt, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Egypt saw a notable increase, with exports rising from \u20ac9.7m to over \u20ac87m, an increase of 796.3%.<\/p>\n<p>China remained Germany\u2019s primary supplier of woodworking machinery in 2024, with imports stable at \u20ac178.1m, nearly unchanged from \u20ac177.8m in 2023. Italy held second place but dropped from \u20ac110.2m to \u20ac84.2m (\u201323.6%). Imports from Poland declined by 3.7%, from \u20ac82.6m to \u20ac79.5m, keeping the country in third place. Other main suppliers, in order, were Austria, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Slovenia, Sweden, France, and Luxembourg.<\/p>\n<p>China maintained its lead in global trade flows for 2024, exporting \u20ac2.52bn in woodworking machinery (excluding tools), a 9.3% increase from \u20ac2.306bn in 2023. At the same time, imports fell from \u20ac231.9m to \u20ac189.1m, indicating a structural shift in the industry. Domestic output appears to meet internal demand more effectively while gaining ground internationally in both volume and quality.<\/p>\n<p>Vietnam\u2019s imports of Chinese technology grew by 27.5%, reaching \u20ac357.3m in 2024. The US imported \u20ac348m (up 2.1%), and Russia\u2019s imports totalled \u20ac224.3m (up 2%). Other key importers were Germany, India, Thailand, Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Imports to China reached \u20ac189.1m in 2024, a decline of 18.5% from \u20ac231.9m in 2023. Germany, despite a 22.9% drop from \u20ac128.9m to \u20ac99.4m, remained the largest supplier. Italy secured second place at \u20ac29.6m, slightly down by 0.4%, while Taiwan dropped to third place, at \u20ac14.5m (down 4%).<\/p>\n<p>Japan increased its imports of Chinese machinery by 29.1%, followed by Denmark, South Korea, the United States, Austria, and the Netherlands. The Netherlands saw a substantial increase, from \u20ac329,000 in 2023 to \u20ac2.7m in 2024, marking a 748% growth. Singapore rounded out the top ten importer list.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe figures processed by our Studies office accurately illustrate the situation that made-in-Italy companies have to face every day,\u201d said Corbetta. \u201cThe mature and established markets, despite the storms of recent years, are keeping their role and continue to be a reference for all manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Chinese export reconquered the first place in the global markets, an expected result that suggests forgetting old cliches and working harder to preserve a technological gap that is essential to remain a reference partner in global trade flows in terms of quality, reliability, and most of all, service and after-sales partnership.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2024, Italy exported \u20ac1.55bn worth of goods, down 8% from \u20ac1.69bn the previous year.
