I. U.S. Power Drill Market Prospects and Export Opportunities
In 2023, the U.S. power tool market exceeded $13 billion, with power drills accounting for 28% of the market share (Grand View Research data). Driven by DIY culture and construction industry recovery, U.S. buyers show increasing demand for Chinese-made lithium battery drills, impact drills, and industrial-grade drills. However, differences in Sino-U.S. trade policies, certification barriers, and logistics compliance requirements pose core challenges for small and medium-sized exporters.
Internationally - recognized Safety StandardsFCC認(rèn)證陷阱 Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from power drill motors must comply with FCC Part 15B standards. Professional agencies offer pre-testing services to avoid risks of full-container returns due to EMI non-compliance.
Regional Mandatory Certifications: Products subject to mandatory certification need to appoint a local agent in Singapore. The ownership of intellectual property rights should be clearly defined in the contract. Customs tariff classification directly affects duty rates (e.g., 2.6% for handheld drills under HS Code 8455.1000). Our company provides an HS CODE smart matching system for accurate classification and tariff pre-review.
