How can printing and dyeing companies move forward under the background of carbon peak and carbon neutrality?
In the context of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals continuing to advance, how should upstream and downstream enterprises in the printing and dyeing industry respond? What is the future development path? At the recently concluded 2021 Global Textile Digital Inkjet Printing Keqiao Summit, reporters interviewed two industry representatives to discuss the future development paths of textile printing and dyeing enterprises.
Chen Zhihua, President of China Printing and Dyeing Industry Association:
“Technology + Management” two-wheel drive
Supporting the “double carbon” goal
Keqiao is the largest industrial cluster region in the country for our printing and dyeing industry. Although the printing and dyeing industry is currently not included in the eight major industries that are subject to carbon reduction, this is not This means that the pressure on our enterprises will become lighter. For the entire industry, in the next few years, “double carbon” will surely become the most important development content.
Specifically speaking, we still have to start from two aspects. On the one hand, we must rely closely on scientific and technological progress and try our best to apply some new scientific and technological achievements and feasible technologies in energy saving Emission reduction; on the other hand, we must also focus on management innovation, strengthen energy management, strengthen lean production management, and achieve this “double carbon” goal better through the two-wheel drive of “technology + management” .
Zheng Jing, deputy general manager of Hangzhou Honghua Digital Technology Co., Ltd.:
It’s time to introduce digital printing technology
For traditional printing and dyeing enterprises, the “double carbon” goal will inevitably challenge the company’s original business model. The output of a considerable number of enterprises has declined due to restrictions from external factors. At the same time, the increase in material, energy, and labor costs has greatly increased the operating costs and burdens of enterprises. In addition, because the original supply chain and supply rhythm of downstream fabric traders are disrupted, most of them are on the sidelines, and orders will be reduced, which will further affect the orders of printing and dyeing companies.
Based on these aspects, traditional printing and dyeing enterprises are facing huge challenges at this stage. Everyone must think about how to better transform and upgrade. At present, Look, digital printing can make up for the shortcomings of traditional printing in flexible supply of production capacity. That is to say, the output of digital printing and the gross profit margin of a single piece are increased, and it can carry out small batch and quick-response production according to market response. At the same time, it Large-scale production can also be carried out, so this is an inevitable trend for the transformation and upgrading of traditional printing and dyeing enterprises.
Of course, the transformation process may be fast or slow. Some companies may try it on a small scale first, such as using digital printing as a supplement to production and placing proofing and small batch orders in digitalPrinting machine is installed, which can further improve the efficiency of the large machine and reduce the labor cost of the large machine. This is also a method. Another way is to develop a new product line and develop a new customer group by adding a digital printing workshop. This is also a better way.
Digital printing technology has developed relatively rapidly in the past five years. As its cost of use has further dropped, it has become closer and closer to traditional printing. Its single-machine production capacity and all aspects of performance have become more stable. It is more efficient and will replace traditional printing in the industry at an increasing rate.
Overall, in the next five years, digital printing and traditional printing will complement each other. For traditional printing and dyeing companies, it is just the right time to introduce digital printing technology. Many of our customers are also concentrated in the Keqiao area, and customers in the entire Keqiao area account for more than 50% of our total domestic market customers.
