Rubber enterprise development to be concerned about the six major changes

In the first half of the overall stability of the economy, production, sales growth continues to trend, China Rubber Industry Association, Ju Hong Zhen remind rubber enterprises, the industry should pay attention to the development of six major new changes in the environment, in particular, to prevent the recurrence of severe industry downturn.

First, the market situation changes. So far this year, has been running high but relatively stable prices of natural rubber, since the surge began in June; At the same time, petroleum-based Synthetic, carbon black, additives, tire cord, and so the price is still high. Rising prices of raw materials, rubber industry to the development of a number of uncertainties, but also the domestic market have a degree of economic volatility. So far, the rubber industry in 1999, 2000, represented by the tire industry still fresh in our memory loss. Past experience has proved that the development of the industry is often a good situation, it appears blind development of products to a surplus of crisis, and then modify its development. To tire, for example, from 2001 to abolish the national consumption tax to start radial tire, radial tire in China has been going on for 5 years, rapid and sound development of the meridian of the rapid rate of increase in the hard-won situation, we must guard against the recurrence of severe industry downturn. This requires the development of rational enterprise, not as a result of growth in demand for some products soon rushing into mass action, the blind development.

Second, the policy changes. The end of last year, the state has prepared a "tire industry industrial policy" (the draft) is still in consultations. The new industrial policy for the first time put forward the implementation of market access management products as soon as possible tire recall system will further standardize the development of tire industry environment. At the same time, adjustment of the RMB exchange rate of exports will also be gradually. In addition, there are two uncertainties: the tariff of natural rubber and tire consumption tax policy. At present, the Ministry of Finance to be on the bias and radial tires uniform charge of 3% consumption tax, the association believes that if the consumption tax to restore radial tire, radial tire products will be detrimental to the upgrading is not conducive to the domestic tire companies develop energy-saving, environmental protection, safety Green tire of new products. And far from enough to meet domestic demand for natural rubber, its current import tariff is still as high as 20%, while imports of rubber products have a much lower tariff, which is clearly unreasonable. In addition, international trade friction, the foreign anti-dumping efforts of the increase, the rubber industry will have a negative impact.

The third is the product of the situation. In the energy crisis, energy-saving society, security, environmental protection and the increasing demands of the situation, the development of energy conservation, safety, environmental protection and green products such as tires have been put on the agenda, including reducing noise and rolling resistance tires, the use of green materials, such as security, This business will have the capability of independent innovation and financial strength of the higher demands.

Fourth, multinational competition. So far this year, multinational companies have increased investment in China and competition in the market, and even some multinational companies in the Chinese side to invest and build factories to speed up and expand market share in China, while Chinese exports blocked. If some multinational companies in China has built more than tire factory and its branches in Turkey has put forward, together with local enterprises on the Chinese anti-dumping tires. At the same time, these companies also increased the protection of intellectual property rights, even threatening to domestic enterprises. All this reflects the change in the mentality of multinational competition, we must rise to great importance to the industry.

Fifth, sustainable development required by the connotation has changed. Enterprises in the past is a single model of development, stressed that the expansion of the size of the current requirements of the Sustainable Development of rubber-effective business enterprise must take the road. Rubber industry must pay attention to the development of circular economy, focus on increasing revenue and reducing expenditure cut, that is, pay attention to the production process of saving energy, using new energy-saving technology and so on, the circular economy to benefit.

Sixth, the pattern of production. At present, the tire industry has been basically formed a brand-name Chinese brands with international competitiveness of the new pattern, but there is still more difficult in other industries. Has developed a number of domestic production base, although the overall output of large, in fact still can not form a fist. Production base for a lot of brands does not, nor has the size, and even some families still-business workshops. Tires, plastic, rubber and other industries have such a situation. In addition, if the tire industry has developed despite the existing situation, some companies have formed a product of natural division of labor, but this pattern will not be changed, the business will be based on changes in the market for technology products. Such as domestic-funded enterprises to the development of semi-steel tire, and some foreign-funded enterprises to the child, such as steel, as we do not transform, by rushing headlong into mass action. Tire business development must be based on their own core technology and their own marketing system on the basis of.
