Industrial Agglomeration: From the Hometown of Hardware to the Capital of Mouth in China
May 26, 2024
Yongkang, located in the central part of Zhejiang Province, is a county-level city managed by Jinhua City and has a nationally renowned hardware industry base. In the 1990s, overseas cup and pot production technology was introduced to China, and with the help of hardware industries such as stainless steel, the insulation cup industry started in Yongkang and has now developed into a pillar industry in the local area. In 2010, Yongkang was also awarded the title of "China's Cup Capital" by the China Light Industry Federation.
Mr. Zhou and his partner from Zhejiang Juxian Quan Cup Industry Co., Ltd. opened a thermal cup factory in Jinhua, Zhejiang, covering an area of over 10000 square meters. He mentioned that making a thermos requires more than 30 processes, including pipe making, water expansion, welding, vacuum pumping, polishing, spraying, and other multiple links.

He told a reporter from the Daily Economic News that in the surrounding area of Yongkang, insulation cup factories are very dense and of varying sizes. "Yongkang is estimated to have hundreds of insulated cup factories and many small workshops," Mr. Zhou said.
According to statistics from the local cup and pot industry association cited by Yongkang Daily in January 2020, Yongkang City had over 300 insulation cup production enterprises, over 200 supporting enterprises, and more than 60000 employees in 2019.
According to a report by China Quality News in July 2020, out of the annual production of approximately 800 million insulated cups and kettles in China, 600 million are produced in Yongkang. At present, the output value of the Yongkang teapot industry exceeds 40 billion yuan, accounting for 60% of the national total, and the export volume accounts for more than 80% of the national total.
An interesting move is that in 2020, the Yongkang Stainless Steel Products Industry Association was renamed as the Yongkang Cup and Pot Industry Association. Reports at that time stated that this move was "aimed at better coordinating and coordinating the development of the insulation cup industry," indicating that the insulation cup industry originated from the local hardware industry and has now taken on its own.
