1、Regional competition pattern of global pharmaceutical equipment technology

——Global distribution of technology sources in the pharmaceutical equipment industry: China has the highest proportion

At present, China is the world's largest technology source country for pharmaceutical equipment, accounting for 83.66% of the total global pharmaceutical equipment patent applications; Next is the United States, where pharmaceutical equipment patent applications account for 9.11% of the total global pharmaceutical equipment patent applications. Although Japan and Europe rank third and fourth, there is a significant gap in patent application volume compared to the United States, which ranks first.

Statistical explanation: ① Conduct statistics based on the deduplication rule of displaying a public text for each application, and select the latest text on the public date for calculation. ② According to the country of patent priority, if there is no priority, it will be calculated according to the country of the receiving office. If there are multiple priority countries, the calculation shall be based on the earliest priority country.

2)Global patent application trend in the pharmaceutical equipment industry: Since surpassing the United States in 2011, China continues to lead the world in the number of pharmaceutical equipment technology patents

From a trend perspective, since 2011, the number of pharmaceutical equipment patent technologies in China has surpassed that of the United States, and has continued to lead the world in subsequent years. In 2020, the number of pharmaceutical equipment patent applications in China was 1566, reaching the highest value in recent years.

3)Distribution of regional patent applications in China's pharmaceutical equipment industry: fierce technological competition, with Jiangsu Province winning in the number of patent applications

On the Chinese side, Jiangsu is currently the province with the highest number of pharmaceutical equipment patent applications, with a cumulative total of 1194 pharmaceutical equipment patent applications. Secondly, there are currently 907 pharmaceutical equipment patents applied for in Shanghai. The top ten provinces in China in terms of the number of pharmaceutical equipment patents applied for by provinces (cities, autonomous regions) currently include Shandong, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Henan, Hebei, Sichuan, Tianjin, and Hubei.

Statistical caliber explanation: According to the address submitted by the patent applicant.

In terms of trends, since 2018, Jiangsu Province has led the country in the number of pharmaceutical equipment patents, followed by Shanghai. The competition for pharmaceutical equipment patent applications between provinces and cities is fierce.

Statistical caliber explanation: According to the address submitted by the patent applicant.

2、The competitive landscape of global pharmaceutical equipment technology applicants

——Global pharmaceutical equipment industry patent applicant concentration: market concentration is not high, CR10 hits bottom and rises

2010-2020，The global pharmaceutical equipment patent applicant CR10 shows a trend of first rising and then falling, with the highest point of 37.42% in 2012 fluctuating and decreasing to 13.21% in 2020. In 2021, the global pharmaceutical equipment CR10 showed a rise, rising to 19.14% as of December 20, 2020. Overall, the concentration of global pharmaceutical equipment patent applicants is not high, but after years of decline, there is a trend of bottoming out and rising.

Statistical caliber explanation: Market concentration - CR10 is the proportion of patent applications from the top 10 applicants in terms of total number of applications to the total number of patent applications in the field (among which, when there are joint applications, the number of patents will not be recalculated).

2)Analysis of Top 10 Patent Applicants in the Global Pharmaceutical Equipment Industry

(1)Global pharmaceutical equipment industry patent applicants' total number and trend: Sensun Pharmaceutical Machinery wins the championship, but Hanou Pharmaceutical Machinery should not be underestimated

The top 10 applicants for patent applications in the global pharmaceutical equipment industry are Shanghai Sensong Pharmaceutical Equipment Engineering Co., Ltd., Shanghai Hanou Pharmaceutical Equipment Co., Ltd., Shanghai Dongfulong Technology Co., Ltd., Aoxing Pharmaceutical Equipment (Shijiazhuang) Co., Ltd., Shandong Xinhua Medical Equipment Co., Ltd., Shanghai Dongfulong Pharmaceutical Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Shanghai Chengjie Pharmaceutical Equipment Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Xingke Pharmaceutical Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Huayan Pharmaceutical Equipment Co., Ltd., and Chutian Technology Co., Ltd.
