Enterprises Build State-Level Testing Centers To Reduce Costs

Recently,

The national testing and testing center of a water heating enterprise successfully passed the reappraisal of the China National Accreditation Committee for conformity assessment (CNAS), and approved it to be upgraded to the "national level" product testing center.

The enterprise is not a special case. In recent years, Quanzhou textile, footwear and other major enterprises have built their own "state-level" testing centers or laboratories.

However, the industry said that such centers are mainly used for early inspection of product development and production process in the enterprise. To export or sell in the domestic market, it still needs to be tested by third party testing agencies with market credibility.

Self inspection to shorten R & D cycle

"Since 2000, we have set up a testing and testing center. Up to now, we have invested about about 40000000 yuan, and the main testing equipment has 62 sets."

Ouyang Songjian, director of the inspection and testing center of brilliant plumbing group, told reporters that at present, there are 10 categories and 58 items of testing capability approved by CNAS, while about 200 items to be expanded.

It is not brilliant to win the title of "national inspection center", including the inspection center of Hongxing Erke, nine Mu Wang Group and Haitian Group, all of which are accredited by CNAS through the qualification of Quanzhou.

"Once the testing process is usually carried out by the sampling or testing organizations of the enterprise, the test is carried out in a fixed laboratory using a special instrument and equipment. This cycle usually takes about half a month.

If we can complete the same level of testing within the enterprise, it will only greatly shorten the R & D cycle in just a few days. "

Ouyang said that if we can control the raw materials in time, the unqualified will not be put into production, and we can also minimize the loss of enterprises.

In addition, internal testing can also reduce costs for enterprises. Taking tap as an example, in a third party detection platform, a project usually costs more than 30 thousand yuan.

Exports still need third party inspection.

Some analysts say that the laboratories or testing centers accredited by CNAS will have mutual recognition. That is to say, the products tested by the "national level" laboratory are equivalent to the international pass of several countries and regions.

However, Chen Cangsong, Secretary General of the Fujian textile and garment export base chamber, told reporters that this was only established in theory. At present, there are still great differences in product quality certification between Europe, America, Japan and China, and more and more testing standards are being made. Even brand enterprises can not do all the tests by themselves.

At present, the "national level" testing center set up in the enterprise is mainly responsible for testing tasks inside the company, or providing services for some enterprises in the industry, enhancing the R & D capability of enterprises, and not being a business public service platform. The main reason is that it has not been universally recognized by international buyers.

Chen Cangsong said, from the present point of view, enterprises still need to check through the authoritative third party inspection agencies when they are doing export.

It is understood that in Quanzhou, there are 3 national third party testing institutions established by the government. The national tea quality supervision and inspection center in Anxi is located in the national footwear inspection center in Jinjiang and the National Textile inspection center in Shishi.

Foreign capital agencies occupy half of the country

In textile

As far as textiles are concerned, how much is the inspection and testing market in Quanzhou, which is a developed manufacturing industry, such as shoemaking, food and beverage, building and building materials? In terms of textiles, the industry estimates that there are about more than 10 third party inspection organizations in Quanzhou, and the cost of testing is about 700 million yuan a year.

But the majority of foreign - funded testing institutions have divided most of the market.

In the textile inspection market, China's commodity inspection, quality inspection, and fiber inspection system accounted for 45%, while domestic private commercial tests accounted for only 5%, and half of them were occupied by foreign testing organizations.

"Most of the third party inspection organizations currently accepted by most of Quanzhou's exporters usually come from some famous international testing organizations in Europe and America, and only by testing the reports of these organizations can they gain the trust of foreign businessmen.

Apart from ITS, the international testing giant set up Fujian's first commercial textile testing base in Jinjiang, including INTERTEK and other giants usually only in Shanghai, Guangzhou,

Establishment of testing center.

Although Quanzhou is a strong manufacturing city, it must be delivered to the customer for inspection.

Chen Cangsong said that in terms of exports, it is possible to take into consideration the strength of the government and trade associations and consult with foreign businessmen in the future so that they can recognize as far as possible the testing reports of the third party testing institutions in the country, so that testing can be completed locally.
