2024-10-31
The 2024 Government work report proposed expanding new growth areas such as green trade. Developing green trade is a major measure to promote high-quality trade development and address climate change. Under the guidance of the "dual carbon" strategy, China's green technologies and industries have developed rapidly, and green products have become a new driving force for China's foreign trade growth.
At this year's Canton Fair, "green whirlwind" also swept through the entire pavilion, becoming the common development goal of exhibitors and buyers. According to statistics, the total exhibition area of this session of the Canton Fair is 1.55 million square meters, which will be held in three phases, focusing on "advanced manufacturing", "quality home" and "better life". A total of 1.04 million green products will be exhibited on site. On October 15, the first phase of the 136th Canton Fair opened in Guangzhou for a duration of 5 days, showcasing themes such as electronic appliances, industrial manufacturing, vehicles and motorcycles, lighting and electrical equipment, hardware tools, etc. Leading export enterprises from Yuecheng District, including Shengyang Technology, Yaofeng Power, and Haoda Electrical Appliances, have brought their newly developed green and low-carbon products to the exhibition, promoting the development of green trade.
'It's very interesting in shape and I believe it will become popular soon. ' On the first day of the exhibition, a crowd gathered in front of the booth of Zhejiang Haoda Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd. A Russian businessman showed great interest in the fourth generation electric heater on display.
This electric heater uses aluminum plate heating and after more than a year of R&D, it has been significantly upgraded in terms of safety standards and energy efficiency. Meng Fuxing, General Manager of Zhejiang Haoda Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd., told reporters that compared to previous years, more merchants visited the Canton Fair this year. On the first day of the exhibition, the company received over 70 business cards from merchants covering regions such as Spain, Italy, and Central Asia.
As a high-tech enterprise committed to the research and development and production of kitchen small appliances and cleaning appliances, Haoda Electric took the first step of industrial transformation in 2021, with an annual R&D investment of no less than 5% of sales, innovating and iterating new products, leading the country in the field of clean intelligent cleaning appliances. "Despite the diverse colors of the products, ‘Green’ remains the foundation of high-quality development and the direction of corporate efforts." Meng Fuxing stated that taking the new vacuum cleaner introduced this time as an example, it adopts advanced motor technology and filtration systems, not only providing strong suction but also effectively filtering out dust and bacteria from the air, creating a healthier living environment for users. "This is precisely the concrete manifestation of the company's commitment to environmental protection."
As an important bridge connecting China and the world, Canton Fair not only provides a broad stage for foreign trade enterprises to show new achievements to the world, but also promotes exchanges and cooperation among countries in environmental protection technology, green products and other fields, and promotes the formation and improvement of global green industrial chain. "Green trade is not only about the 'greening' of products but also the green transformation of the production process." A relevant official from the District Business Bureau stated that in recent years, Yuecheng District has been continuously promoting industrial transformation, focusing on the three pillar industries of integrated circuits, medical equipment, and modern services, continuously optimizing the industrial structure. Among the participating enterprises, 26 are high-tech enterprises, accounting for 20% of the total participating enterprises, showing the strong strength of "Yucheng manufacturing".
In the near future, Yuecheng District will focus on new paths, new vitality and new mechanisms, encourage and promote the export of emerging industries, cultivate new competitive advantages in export, and focus on stabilizing foreign trade and promoting development.
