subject: Restricted By Technical Barriers China Home Appliances Export Losing 50 Billion Yuan Every Year [print this page] When China is increasingly becoming the world major home appliances country, European technical barriers block its export, which has brought huge losses to the home appliances export. In China 60% of home appliance exporters had suffered foreign technical barriers, the direct and potential economic losses is about 50 billion U.S. dollars every year, which solar water heater has exceeded 25% of the annual export total sum.
At present, most Chinese home appliance products are mainly exported to IEC member countries, under the global UV lamp integration of purchase and production background, non-IEC members often test the home appliances safety performance according to IEC standards, and it has become the necessary basic requirements for enterprises to export home appliances products. For the moment, France, Germany, Britain and other countries have regarded the international Tattoo Machine standards as a trump card to enter into the international tattoo machine kits market, Nordic countries directly adopt the international standards as the rule to access to market almost without any modification, the U.S. also changes their cool attitude to active one on adopting international standard, even developed countries are becoming more and more interest in international standard.
With the age of knowledge-based economy coming, the worldwide standard competition is becoming more and more intense, who makes the standard that can be recognized by the world will seize huge market and gain great market and economic interests, also can ensure the countries and industries security.
According to incomplete statistics, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) have released almost 20,000 international standards, but Chinese enterprises only participate in the drawing up of 20 items. In addition, there are more than 900 institutions for drawing up the standards, but in which China participates are less than 10. Mr. Ma Dejun said that a patented technology only influences one or several companies, but a standard influences an industry or even a country's competitive power, so from this we can see that the standard war of an industry is not inferior to a battle.
Currently the international home appliances standards that China participates in the drawing up are only a few, but with home appliances enterprises active exploration, a group of technologies with independent intellectual property rights has been accepted and established as international home appliance standard by IEC. Haier anti-electric wall technology is China's first international solar panel standard with independent innovation and independent intellectual property rights; in addition, the dual power washer technology that Haier participates in has successfully applied and become an international home appliances standard. Hisense participates in drawing up the general specifications of the LED backlight technology, and it is the first time for Chinese enterprises to take charge of and make the international standards in this field.
