- Installation cost is a key factor when
considering the future of gas in the domestic sector. As heating
demand is decreasing (due to improved house insulation) the
appliance and installation need to be competitive, especially
because electricity is becoming a more attractive solution.
- Most of the gas appliances
manufacturing units exist in four major cities - Karachi, Lahore,
Gujranwala and Sialkot. The gas appliances industry is a small-scale
cottage industry with a few market leaders producing quality
appliances. These few market leaders along with other small units
have established themselves in the local market. However, Pakistan
has the potential to expand in the international market by
establishing new manufacturing units that produce export quality
products.
- Gas appliances is a requirement of
every household, therefore the demand for these appliances is likely
to increase in the local as well as the foreign market. Furthermore,
only a small proportion of the market share is taken up by imported
appliances, which reinforces the fact that local products have a
higher demand in the domestic market.
- In recent times, a few quality
manufacturing units have been set up that open up the possibility of
increasing exports in the near future. The government of Pakistan is
paying attention towards this sector and in the recent budget has
decreased the rate of custom duty on steel sheets, which is the
basic raw material for gas appliances.
- Total global trade in terms of imports
of gas appliances was $6.394 billion in 2009. USA is the largest
importing country with a share of 30.2% and a total value of $1.931
billion. USA is a rapidly growing market with high annual growth
rate. Germany is the second largest importer in this category with
imports of $529.590 million. France is the third largest importer
with total imports of $496.905 million.
- The basic raw material for the
manufacturing of gas appliances is Mild Steel (MS) Sheet. The other
raw materials are copper pipes, stainless steel sheet, knobs,
silver, brass, glass wool, thermostats, ceramic plates, bakelite,
glass & stove paint.
