my country’s hardware accessories industry, whether it is manufacturing or circulation, is developing from a big country to a powerful country. The number of enterprises will become smaller and smaller, and the scale and strength of enterprises will become larger and larger. They will inevitably follow a path of relying on brands and relying on brands. Technical content, relying on strong capital, implementing cross-regional, transnational, group and chain operations.
Recently, the Beijing Consumers Association conducted a product comparison test on some ceramic sealing faucets currently on the market. Yesterday, the Beijing Consumers Association announced the comparative test results. The results showed that among the 50 ceramic sealing faucet products tested, 34% did not meet the standards. The test results once again questioned the quality of plumbing hardware products.
According to the test, after 10 to 24 hours of filling water in 50 samples, only two faucets released lead-free elements. Experts point out that faucets made of substandard materials are very likely to contain lead elements in the “overnight water” that exceed the standard. If the volume exceeds a certain level in humans, it will cause lead poisoning.
The samples for this comparison test are all ceramic sheet sealed kitchen faucets, involving 50 samples produced by 50 companies in 8 provinces and cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, and Hebei. By entrusting the National Building Materials Industry Building Hardware Plumbing Product Quality Supervision, Inspection and Testing Center to test the faucet’s logo packaging, salt spray test, flow rate, sealing performance, water efficiency, lead precipitation concentration, etc., 17 faucet sample parts among the 50 samples Projects failed to meet standard requirements, accounting for 34%.
It is reported that the main reason why overnight water from substandard faucets is prone to excessive lead is that due to process limitations, most ceramic chip faucets are often cast with copper alloys. Although the lead element in copper alloys is in contact with the air, the surface will quickly Oxidation creates a protective film, but water can cause the protective film of lead to fall off, causing the precipitation of lead elements in the faucet.
my country’s plumbing and bathroom hardware industry has grown from scratch and has continued to flourish for decades. At present, China has become the world’s largest producer and consumer of plumbing and bathroom hardware facilities, and well-known domestic plumbing hardware brands have also appeared in the international market. As market competition intensifies, the property market slumps, and market demand declines, plumbing and bathroom hardware companies also need to improve themselves, change their development direction, focus on improving product quality, improve product functions, constantly explore and meet the various needs of target consumers, and create Brand awareness and reputation.
