The reporter recently learned that in the first half of this year, the total sales of furniture in Guangdong Province was 109.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.3%. It is worth noting that although Guangdong still relies on nearly half of the proportion of China's furniture export leader, in the first half of the year, the sales volume of furniture industry in our province increased by 8% year-on-year, far exceeding exports, up 4.4% year-on-year.
In this regard, Wang Ke, president of the Guangdong Furniture Association, pointed out that the era of rapid development of the Chinese furniture industry has passed, and the transformation and upgrading of the industry is imminent.
Europe and the United States to raise the threshold of imports of wood products
It is understood that in the first half of this year, the furniture industry in Guangdong Province was affected by the economic downturn in Europe and the United States and China's real estate control policies. Domestic sales and exports are facing greater pressure.
Industry analysts pointed out that the recent export regulations in Europe and the United States and other export markets have introduced new regulations, which has brought shadow to the export situation of domestic furniture companies. Following the European Union's implementation of Forest (FSC) certification for wood and wood products in March this year, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed two proposed regulations to raise environmental standards. In the case of particleboard, the amount of formaldehyde released should not exceed 0.09. Mg/kg, which is 1000 times higher than our national standard. After preliminary evaluation, if the production according to the new US standards, the cost of wood-based panels is expected to increase by 30% to 50%, and the cost of wood-based furniture based on wood-based panels will increase by 15% to 20%.
Seize the domestic market into an industry trend
Export exports are heavily hampered, and it is imperative to seize domestic sales. Wang Ke said that the transformation and upgrading of the furniture industry is imminent. At the end of last year, the association has proposed that the development of the furniture industry in Guangdong will change from pursuing scale to pursuing economies of scale. On the one hand, it will steadily develop exports and actively explore new furniture export markets. We will also focus on strengthening domestic demand and actively increase the development of the third and fourth-tier markets. In June and July of this year, under the guidance of the Guangdong Provincial Economic and Information Technology Commission, the Provincial Furniture Association cooperated with the “Guangzhou National Bank†to hold the Guangdong Furniture Hefei (Property) Boutique Exhibition, Guangdong Home Yangzhou (Property) Boutique Exhibition, through the star. The bargaining promotion campaign has driven dozens of Guangdong furniture one or two brands to collectively explore the domestic market.
The insiders pointed out that in the long run, the future furniture exports will be mainly subject to the following major bottlenecks: First, the cost of furniture sheets, paints, glues and other materials rises, and the combination of production costs and certification costs leads to an increase in export costs, making export profits sharp. Second, the strict third-party certification requirements, so that companies have to work hard to obtain a "license" for other countries, will lead to a significant extension of the product certification cycle and import customs clearance time; third, the strict limits of formaldehyde standards, leading to foreign notifications Even the increased probability of return shipments and recalls greatly diminishes the company's profitability and access to export orders.
