Guangdong's robotics industry is moving fast. Tax data shows province-wide sales revenue of robotics-related products exceeded 140.4 billion yuan in 2025, up 8.4 percent a year on average over three years, while industrial robot output ranked first nationwide for a sixth year and accounted for more than 45 percent of the national total. The number of companies has passed 12,400. The chain is fairly complete: component makers account for nearly 80 percent of firms, while complete-machine makers and system integrators make up about 20 percent, and the Pearl River Delta alone hosts 96 percent of them. Application scenes are shifting too, with service robot output exceeding 80 percent of the national total; one Zhuhai company has put AI care robots into hospitals and nursing homes, and a Shenzhen nursing home saw caregiver turnover fall from 30 percent to 5 percent. In April the Guangdong tax bureau issued a 2.0 package of measures for the modern industrial system, listing AI and intelligent robotics as key service targets, with R&D expense deductions delivering real savings.
