Challenges
- High compliance costs due to environmental regulations: Stringent environmental regulations in key markets, such as the U.S. and EU, have significantly increased compliance costs. In order to comply with these restrictions, equipment prices climbed by about 21% for small enterprises. A study by the U.S. Small Business Administration found that over 35% of small laser equipment suppliers in the U.S. were unable to satisfy the EPA conditions and hence stopped innovation. In 2023, Trumpf Group installed advanced filtration systems to meet EU eco-standards. The cost of producing the filtration system was expensive, leading to a price increase; however, the company recouped this increase by achieving a 16% growth in market share in the German market. It is a gain considered very valuable, given the total European ecological burden the company took upon itself.
- Pricing pressures from global competition: Laser marking machines have also ultimately become commoditized and have had a severe impact on pricing. Lower cost and government export subsidies enable Chinese manufacturers to reduce the price of laser markers for export by approximately 26–31% below Western manufacturers. The price model used to entrench competitive positioning proves difficult for U.S. and EU manufacturers to follow. According to the WTO 2024 Trade Report, disputes against importing additional anti-dumping duties on individual laser component imports have risen by 18%. In response to the realities discussed, Coherent Corp. moved part of its assembly line to India in 2023 to save approximately 19% on production costs and become more competitive globally.
