Technological backwardness is the root cause of homogenization of coating products

China Paint Network
News: After entering the 21st century, China's economy has always maintained high-speed development, rapid economic development has led to real estate and a large number of industries, of course, including
paint
industry. In all the industries in the country, the paint industry is only a small part, but it affects the living environment and health of each of us. According to statistics, the current domestic scale of more than
coating enterprises
there are nearly 4000, and to small and medium-sized paint enterprises, whether in product quality, business model, technology research and development are mixed, its investment in technology research and development is relatively small, weak technology research and development strength. The result of backward technology is that the homogenization of coating products is becoming more and more serious, which eventually leads to the whole coating industry into a vicious circle.
lack of technology, China's national paint enterprises can only squeeze in the middle and low-end market, competing for low-margin market share. As for the steel structure, petrochemical, aircraft, automobiles, ships, nuclear power and other fields of high value-added special coatings, almost the world of foreign brands, its price is usually very high, gross profit is also very high, but the national brand can only look forward to sighing. Although at present, some large-scale domestic paint enterprises in aerospace coatings, marine coatings,
ship coatings
,
automotive coatings
,
anti-corrosion coatings
, nuclear power coatings, wind coatings, etc. , although the development of phased results, but has not yet achieved large-scale industrial production, still need to import; Other high-end areas are still in the scientific research tracking stage. High-end raw materials in the hands of foreign paint giants, lack of independent innovation ability, affecting the development of high value-added coating products, and domestic paint enterprises lack of innovation capacity, technology backward reason is the lack of standard norms.
for the traditional coatings industry, only advanced production technology can produce high-quality coating products, and ultimately can win the market and obtain greater profits. In order to promote the research and development of coating enterprises and promote the healthy development of the entire coating industry, the Science and Technology Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has formulated 14 standards for the coatings and pigment industry, which are used to regulate the healthy development of the entire coating industry, including: industrial cobalt sulfate, industrial zinc phosphate, industrial alkaline copper chloride, zinc borate flame retardant, industrial aluminum phosphate , low zinc primer, cold coated zinc coating, water-based inorganic phosphate solvent-resistant anti-corrosion coating, water-based alkalic acid resin coating, coating aluminum pigment Part 3: polymer coated aluminum powder, coating aluminum pigment Part 4: vacuum aluminum suspension, sprayed rubber asphalt
waterproof coating
, water-based polyurethane flooring material.
the introduction of new standards will help to improve the overall level of domestic paint industry development, but also will certainly promote the healthy development of the domestic paint industry. However, the coating industry is composed of thousands of coating enterprises, in promoting the development of the entire coating industry in the process of coating enterprises will play a vital role. And 14 coatings and pigment industry related standards, we can see that its focus is
-industrial coatings
, although the current share of industrial coatings is less than
building coatings
, but in the process of China's industrial development plays an important role. Global
Coatings Network
understand that, especially in the aerospace and aviation fields, the introduction of new standards will increase the domestic paint enterprises in the high-end field of technology research and development efforts, but also to promote China's national paint enterprises into the field of high-end coatings nationalization of an important force.
rapid macroeconomic development in China has contributed to the rapid rise in the number of domestic paint enterprises. And when the domestic macro-economy into the normal situation, the downstream market demand for paint products slowed down, the quality of paint products and indicators are more and more demanding, which will make a number of coatings enterprises without core technology out of the paint industry. According to the Global Coatings Network in 2014 to count the number of
powder coatings
manufacturers, we found that compared with 2013, in some provinces in 2014 the number of powder coatings manufacturers have declined, and the city eliminated powder coatings are those without core technology enterprises.
the introduction of paint industry standards, can to a large extent guide and promote the healthy development of the paint industry, but more importantly, paint enterprises need to follow the rules. In the entire paint industry, fake paint enterprises are not in the minority, they are the root cause of disrupting the market, but we believe that in the domestic economy stable development today, with the introduction of new standards in the domestic paint industry and large-scale coatings enterprises continue to increase technology research and development efforts, in the case of increasing external pressure, those who do not have core production technology coatings enterprises will eventually be eliminated by the market. Therefore, paint enterprises in order not to be eliminated by the market, should increase the development of new technologies and new products, as well as the reserve of technical personnel.
