environmentally friendly products boost competitiveness

More manufacturers are jumping on the "green" car in the middle strict export regulations, more and more alternatives and increased demand.

Walking the path "green" is on the rise among manufacturers in China, albeit at different levels of adoption. Whether in clothing, jewelry, stationery, paint or electronics general public, more companies are adopting environmentally safe materials, including recycled replacements.

Suppliers are motivated by two main factors. Most are forced to because of increasingly stringent regulation of products in their most important destination, namely EU and U.S.. RoHS, for example, curbing the use of elements and compounds that are hazardous to the environment. Among these are lead and cadmium. Although the EU directive only applies to electrical and electronic products, policy makers in other sectors such as jewelry are taken into account and distribution of these substances.

A few are exploiting the ecological trend as a marketing tool for help them move to the high-end manufacturing and detach themselves from the fierce competition in the low range. Because there is a premium attached to the model green companies may claim from 5 to 50 percent more for these items.

No more toxins

Most vendors of jewelry decreased the use of nickel, a former metal plating widely applied that can cause skin irritations and has been banned in some countries and regions, including the EU. Other types of heavy metals like lead and cadmium are also vanish regularly from two product composition and manufacturing processes.

Fashion accessories manufacturer temgo Group Co. Ltd uses resin beads and nickel-free plastic have no toxic content. "The metal plating does not contain lead and nickel. This is required by all our EU and U.S. buyers," Deputy Chief Stanley said Fan.

"We are also using low cadmium bags plastic packaging. It will be a tendency in the future. Some acrylic beads or stones should be low and cadmium. "

Neoglory Group, one Top 10 jewelry manufacturers in China, worked with the University of Kunming Science and Technology to develop a zinc-based alloy that is consistent standards more stringent abroad. Three patents were filed for the new metal, which took a year to perfect.

In addition to its environmentally friendly properties, metal jewelry newly developed Neoglory will save $ 0.044 per piece. The company aims to increase exports to North America and Europe once mass production begins.

Many products are now free phthalates, plasticizers that are endocrine disruptors and suspected carcinogens.

Even the paint is restored to ecological security. oil-based versions contain high levels of PAHs and volatile organic compounds, which are among the most polluting currents.

Much of the environmentally friendly alternative to China are waterborne. When water evaporates, paint film layer is formed without releasing xylene, formaldehyde and other harmful VOCs.

Currently, over 80 percent of providers paint in the country offer alternatives to water-based. Foshan Aoke Chemical Co. Ltd., Foshan Maydos Chemical Co. Ltd and SUNFO International Chemical Co. Ltd. have developed paint which is consistent with the national standard for China-VOC, which is less than 200 g / L.

For printing, oil-based water and soy ink are taken as a low VOC, HAP choices more versions based solvent.

Natural alternatives sustainable

Apart from providing components are free of toxins, many companies are incorporating materials that are grown with the least impact on the environment as possible.

Cotton farmers are the main users of the insecticide in the world, 16 percent of total consumption. Organic cotton is grown without pesticides and synthetic fertilizers toxic promotes healthier products, biodiversity conservation and reduction products harmful chemicals that seep into the environment.

Tencel, which is a trademark of regenerated cellulose fibers, wood pulp dissolved is another environmentally friendly material that is often used in coats and pants. It is usually blended with cotton at a rate up up to 1:3.

Rayon from bamboo is also integrated in the production of clothing. In addition to being biodegradable, it is one of the most effective among all types of natural fibers in terms of moisture absorption and breathability.

Other materials natural that policy makers are turning to silk, bamboo charcoal and soy and milk protein fiber.

Furthermore the application of textiles, Bamboo is used as an alternative to wood, which is currently in short supply. Some officials have even found a way to reshape the plant naturally hollow cylindrical turning it into high-pressure machines.

Bamboo short maturity cycle, high availability, and proven strength and durability make the material not only environmentally safer option to wood, but also more profitable.

Recycled Alternatives

Wood pulp, the most common material for making paper, has been linked to a number of environmental issues, including deforestation, and air and water pollution. This has prompted suppliers to turn to alternative earth-friendly, which are increasingly available. Among they are other than wood pulp paper, including cotton, bamboo and reed pulp variants, and bagasse and stone.

Recycled paper such as kraft is also an excellent environmental choice. In terms of quality, recycled paper has against classic versions. It has some limitations, however, including inability to print in color.

"Although paper products are environmentally more expensive, acceptance customers is high. Both old and new customers actively place our orders for these products, "said Wang Hao of Zhejiang Guangbo Group Co. Ltd., a manufacturer of stationery.

Toy makers cited recycled sawdust that has been ignored as a by-product of wood, like appropriate substitute material. Apart from yield environmental benefits, it improves the properties of crack and heat resistant to these toys role play. Be easier to handle than wood, this solution also has a production time shorter and easier molding processes.

In the line of beauty and cosmetics, the trend is reflected in the simplest packaging and recycled or recyclable to be adopted by many makers. Refills are also being promoted more slowly.

Green Economy

Trends show that Green manufacturing is correlated directly with the cost of adoption. Makers are more likely to use an alternative environmentally friendly if it does not inflate their cost structure, and substitutes that are considerably more expensive than conventional materials have fewer takers.

Organic cotton, for example, is at least 30 percent more expensive than the traditional because it has fewer growers and suppliers. Parallel to its popularity, However, the area of organic cotton in the U.S. increased 26 percent year on year in 2009 with estimated total area planted to 4,342 hectares the highest since 2001.

For cosmetics, biodegradable packaging costs 20 percent more than traditional plastic or equivalent glass.

On average, ecological security paper is 5 percent more expensive than the alternatives of wood pulp, while the waterborne paint is about 20 percent more expensive to manufacture than the standard oil-based.

Full River (Hong Kong) Ltd., estimates the total costs of production of consumer electronics are earth-friendly 4 to 8 percent more than conventional models.

With the use of soy ink, Wenzhou Success Group Paper Articles Co. Ltd has raised its estimate of 5 to 10 percent.

For some product lines, the transition Green is facilitated by the absence of additional expenditure. Multi-Link Apparel substituted azo dyes and heavy metal with entries greener but the hardware costs have remained the same.

Even more fortunate for some suppliers, switching to sustainable production proved to be more profitable than before. Some manufacturers of denim clothing, for example, are able to increase their margins ranging up to 50 percent per pair.

The cost of doing stationery bagasse, stone and reed is about 5 percent less than that of paper pulp, but cites the export could be 5 to 15 per cent more.

A plastic refill costs about 30 to 50 percent less than a plastic bottle retail in the same volume, the savings are passed on to consumers.

At Current, traditional packaging is lower overall costs than others because of the old and mature technology supply chain in place. In years to come, packaging materials are recyclable and biodegradable products will become cheaper and widely used.

Maximize the benefits of eco-labels

China's leaders expect to increase their competitiveness export markets is key to certify their products with labels environment-protection. Testing and certification costs are borne by the buyers directly or taken into account in the course.

Many major export destinations have announced releases for a wide range of items. Cosmetics, for example, the Certified Natural Cosmetics Seal BDIH Germany Cosmebio and Ecocert in France, Italy ICEA and Ecogarantie Belgium.

Clothing Night Apparel Co. Ltd. Qingdao FITEX bears the DSD to recycle Green Point and marks, which indicate that the garment is suitable for the collection and reuse, merchandiser manager Joy Liu said.

Foreign products without eco-labels may be the local equivalent, the China Environmental Label. Developed according to ISO 14024, the brand is recognized by various international organizations, eco-labeling and has concluded mutual recognition agreements with Germany, Japan, Australia and other countries.

Much green paint available locally is marked with the label of China on the environment. Multi-Link Apparel provides clothing eco-environment with China (Green) Label.
