In the global supply chain, CKD (Completely Knocked
Down) and SKD (Semi Knocked Down) solutions offer cost-effective and efficient
ways for manufacturers to expand their reach into new markets while keeping
expenses low. At Soundroad, we specialize in providing
comprehensive CKD and SKD services for medical equipment companies. We handle
everything from sourcing components to assembly management, ensuring your
products are ready for local production and distribution.
Why Need CKD & SKD
Cost Reduction
Both CKD and SKD are used to minimize shipping costs and import duties, as customs duties are often lower on parts than on fully assembled goods. These solutions can make entering new markets more affordable by reducing your overall production and distribution expenses
Local Manufacturing Benefits
Local assembly allows you to adapt products to regional specifications, quality standards, and customer preferences. It also supports local economies and often provides tax incentives in certain regions
Simplified Logistics
CKD and SKD shipments reduce the complexity of shipping large, bulky products by breaking them down into smaller parts. This can simplify customs clearance and reduce shipping and handling fees.
Market Expansion
By utilizing CKD or SKD, manufacturers can enter new markets and avoid the high costs of setting up full-scale factories in each region. It’s an effective strategy for expanding your market footprint in regions with high import tariffs or manufacturing costs
