Expected to put the small end of the energy efficiency standards for home appliances small home appliances will further increase production costs. In this case, the product price increases to high-end business transformation has become the consensus of small household appliances.
Microwave ovens, electric fans, electric cookers these products energy efficiency standards, to show that the relevant authorities in China have begun to concern over a broad volume of small household electrical appliances, no-name small household appliances market is about to gather energy efficiency faced by the College Entrance Examination. At the same time, this year, raw material prices and labor costs and other factors have made small household electrical appliances continued high cost of the product profits are diluted, and the future introduction of energy efficiency standards will undoubtedly cost of production of small household appliances to upgrade the 5% ~ 10 %. In this case, the product price increases to high-end business transformation has become the consensus of small household appliances.
Small appliances is expected to introduce energy efficiency standards by the end of
Present, the state of small household electrical appliances more and more emphasis on energy conservation issues, the competent authorities hope that the new efficiency standards for home appliances can be implemented as soon as possible.
"Electric cookers and electric fans are now two energy efficiency standards for approval in May this year the Standardization Administration, is expected to be introduced before the end of this year." Standardization Institute of the Chinese Institute of Resource and Environment Standardization Senior Engineer Liu Wei accept the "China Electronics News" interview, said, "In addition to these two standards, the current energy efficiency standards for microwave ovens are also tight in the development, the year will be sent to the Standardization Administration approval."
As the lead authors of the above criteria, Liu Wei, said, fans of the revised energy efficiency standards, the majority of fan products for the energy efficiency three or two products to achieve a very few products; and revised metallic type rice cooker pot limit value of energy efficiency than GB12021.6-1989 version of the standard limited value of energy efficiency improved slightly, while non-metallic type of rice cooker inner pot limit value of energy efficiency GB12021.6-1989 version than the much lower .
According to Understanding, not in foreign countries, small household appliances for energy efficiency mandatory precedent, the standards of a certain leading. "Standard in the development process has been called to open a number of mainstream business seminars, and has been widely recognized by enterprises." Liu said.
China's small household electrical appliances out widely. Electric fans, rice cookers these two products are the major producer in China, and its production occupies more than 70% of the world. China's current fan market largely imported products, rice cookers in the Chinese market only Panasonic, Sanyo and so few Japanese brands, and its production to also mainly in China.
10% of small household electrical appliances or out
"Although small household electrical appliances is a small product, but the energy saving potential is very great. Small appliance energy efficiency standards for energy conservation in China will put a huge support." Liu believes that "electric fans and rice cookers in the market, the current are about 10% because the energy efficiency of products will not be out of compliance. for now, most enterprise-scale compliance problems do not exist. "
Now, the entire industry to implement energy efficiency standards is feasible. Chen Gang, deputy secretary general of China Household Electrical Appliances Association, said energy needs depend on technological breakthroughs, technology upgrades necessary to bring costs, energy efficiency standards for small household appliances enterprises, will be a threshold. Gang Chen believes that the future 1 / 3 will be very well-known companies across the past; 1 / 3 medium-sized enterprises can get by Knut force; while the other 1 / 3 is bound to make life difficult for the company.
The face of energy efficiency upgrades, enterprise more worried about is cost. Fan Electric Co., Ltd. Manufacturer Zhan Jiang Hongzhi, deputy chief engineer Wu Huarong "China Electronics News" reporter, said: "This year, raw material prices, labor costs and other factors have made small home appliances business profits are diluted, the future of new energy efficiency standards will also allow the cost to upgrade at least 5% -10%. "
It is understood that this year, the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta and other places in the small appliance business to the growing costs of production.
