The development trend of environmentally friendly cables is irreversible

Eco-friendly cables have the characteristics
of non-toxic (low toxicity), non-pollution, high safety and reliability, long service life, easy to disassemble and recycle the circular economy mode for people and the environment.

At the seminar on "Wire and Cable Environmental Protection Risks and Response Strategies" held in 2013, Du Jiabin, general manager of the consumer goods testing service department of SGS, the world's leading inspection, identification, testing and certification organization, pointed out that environmental protection issues have increasingly become the focus of people's attention, the importance of ecological environment has become increasingly prominent, and the manufacture of green products is of great
significance to enterprises.

Tan Bingwen, president of General Cable (China) Company, believes that only when more and more companies continue to try green practices and innovations in products and operations, the entire cable industry can achieve sustainable development and show a green and vigorous development trend
.

At the recently held 2nd China (Wuhu) Wire and Cable Expo and Product Quality Summit, Zhang Ronghan, director of the Reinstallation Division of the Equipment Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, pointed out that the average profit margin of the domestic cable industry is very low, hovering around 3%-4
%.
At the Wuwei County Wire and Cable Industry Association member meeting held in 2013, Gao Qingguo, honorary chairman of the wire and cable branch of China Electrical Equipment Industry Association, bluntly said that 80% to 90% of the products in the domestic cable manufacturing industry are homogeneous low-end products
.
It is understood that the homogeneous competition of low-end products and the relative lack of high-end products are an important factor
that leads to low profits in the cable industry.

At present, representative green environmental protection cables at home and abroad mainly include flame retardant cables, fireproof cables and so on
.
These cables have higher added value and therefore higher profits than conventional
cables.
Therefore, the research and development and production of environmentally friendly cables are likely to enable enterprises to move from the low-end product market to the high-end product market, and the efficiency of enterprises will also be improved
.

With the continuous improvement of environmental protection requirements in various countries in the world, international environmental protection laws and regulations are also increasing and becoming more stringent
.
Take the ROHS directive formulated by the European Union, if products such as wires and cables cannot pass the certification, it means that they cannot enter the European market
.
In order to obtain the opportunity to export products, foreign countries are constantly reducing the production of conventional cables, replacing them with environmentally friendly cables
.

In this regard, Liu Tao, secretary-general of Guangdong Wire and Cable Industry Association, called on domestic wire and cable enterprises to achieve green environmental protection control in the production process, so as to achieve green manufacturing
.
At present, environmental protection issues have received more and more attention around the world, which will greatly stimulate the growth of demand for environmentally friendly wires and
cables.
Compared with conventional cables, with higher profits, the development trend of environmentally friendly cables is irreversible
