Hello, everyone! Today we'll explore a "cold but booming" niche in foreign trade — the circular economy! Did you know? The global circular economy market has surpassed 6 trillion yuan, with China, the "world's factory," shifting from selling new products to trading recycled resources. Second-hand equipment and recycled materials exports have become the new password for business growth!

First, let's look at second-hand equipment! The European energy crisis and inflation pressures have forced many companies to cut costs for survival. China's high-performance, cost-effective second-hand textile machinery, photovoltaic components, and engineering machinery are in hot demand! In 2024 alone, inquiries for second-hand equipment in Southeast Asia surged by 300%! Even better, national policies are fueling this trend — simplified export procedures in free trade zones, VAT exemptions, and higher profit margins than new products!

Now, about recycled materials! The EU mandates a 60% textile recycling rate by 2030, but local processing costs are exorbitant. A Zhejiang company turns waste plastic bottles into recycled polyester fiber, exporting directly to Europe with doubled profits! Note — such products require international certifications (like GRS Global Recycling Standard), or orders may vanish into "risk zones."

For foreign trade professionals, this is a golden opportunity to ride the trend and seize market leadership. Embracing second-hand equipment and recycled materials exports could make you stand out in the circular economy arena. Follow me for more foreign trade insights!
