【Taiwan Information】Three Traditional Taiwanese Manufacturers Transform Businesses through Cross-Industry Collaboration and New Market Entry ＜Y.S. Machinery Industry Journal April 5th Week 2026 Issue Published＞

Y.S. Consulting Group (Headquarters: Taipei City, Republic of China; Representative Director: Yasushi Yoshimoto) has published the April 5th Week 2026 issue of 'Y.S. Machinery Industry Journal,' a specialized magazine for the Taiwanese machinery industry. Y.S. Machinery Industry Journal No. 0649 This issue features the current status and 2026 outlook for the 'Taiwan Conveying Machinery and Equipment Industry' and the 'Taiwan Textile and Apparel Production Machinery and Equipment Industry.' It analyzes the contrasting industrial structures where the conveying machinery sector achieved significant growth with a 14% increase in sales driven by AI opportunities and equipment renewal demand, while the textile machinery sector struggled due to adverse factors like US tariff policies and exchange rates. Furthermore, to overcome low-price offensives from overseas manufacturers and drastic environmental changes, the journal details business transformation cases of three traditional Taiwanese manufacturers entering drone and semiconductor fields through cross-industry collaboration and new market entry. It also covers the strategy of CWP (Century Offshore Wind Power Equipment), which holds an 80% share in Taiwan for offshore wind power subsea foundations, to target the Japanese market by leveraging its new Indonesian factory, showcasing the latest trends in Taiwan's manufacturing industry as it seeks new growth amidst rapid supply chain reorganization. 【Topic 1】 Three Traditional Taiwanese Manufacturers Transform Businesses through Cross-Industry Collaboration and New Market Entry Amidst ongoing US tariff policies and fierce low-price competition, traditional Taiwanese manufacturers are accelerating their business transformation. Bo-Shin Tools, a major hand tool manufacturer, expanded its sales channels by joining a major golf club OEM. Tomita Electric reduced its reliance on EVs and developed small motors for drones and robots. Furthermore, Xinli Foundry shifted to contract manufacturing of components for semiconductor equipment, aiming to escape the red ocean and build new competitive advantages. 【Topic 2】 Taiwan Conveying Machinery and Equipment Industry: 14% Sales Increase in 2025 — Driven by AI Opportunities and Elevator Renewals The sales of Taiwan's conveying machinery and equipment manufacturing industry in 2025 increased by 14.03% year-on-year to 60.211 billion NTD. The growth was strongly driven by the demand for overhead hoist transfer (OHT) systems in the electronics and semiconductor industries, fueled by AI opportunities, and the demand for elevator renewals accompanying the reconstruction of aging buildings. Conversely, traditional conveyors and forklifts saw a decline due to the impact of US tariff policies and other factors. 【Topic 3】 CWP Offshore Wind Targets Japanese Demand with New Indonesian Factory Construction Century Offshore Wind Power Equipment (CWP), which holds an 80% share in Taiwan for offshore wind power subsea foundations, is constructing a new factory on Batam Island, Indonesia. Through a dual-engine strategy combining high production know-how accumulated at its Taipei Port factory in Taiwan with local low costs (labor costs are about one-fourth of Taiwan's), CWP aims to fully capture demand for offshore wind power projects in overseas markets, including Japan. 【Topic 4】 Overview and 2026 Outlook for Taiwan's Textile and Apparel Machinery Manufacturing Industry — Headwinds from Tariffs and Exchange Rates The sales of Taiwan's textile, apparel, and leather production machinery and equipment manufacturing industry in 2025 decreased by 8.94% year-on-year to 21.362 billion NTD. This decline was impacted by the conservative multinational investment driven by the promotion of US tariff policies and the decrease in export competitiveness due to the strong Taiwan dollar. Furthermore, the threat of high tariffs from the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) remains, and the industry is expected to continue facing severe conditions in 2026, unable to escape the quagmire of decline. https://www.ys-consulting.com.tw/research/128206.html https://www.ys-consulting.com.tw/research/l/86/213/ 1.
