The first quarter of Dongguan LED lighting exports grew rapidly

Dongguan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau announced yesterday that in the first quarter of 2012, a total of 1,321 LED lamps were exported from Dongguan, amounting to US$42.363 million, an increase of 74.3% and 79.2% compared with the same period last year. In the first quarter of this year, the bureau discovered many problems with export products and reminded relevant manufacturers that they still need to pay attention to product quality.

Dongguan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau analyzed that with the implementation of the national energy-saving emission reduction policy and the rapid development of LED technology, LED lighting has become a lighting market with its advantages of energy saving, safety, environmental protection, long life, and a wide range of application prospects. New favorite. The Dongguan area is a traditional export lamp production base. Facing the current low threshold, low prices, and strong competition in the traditional lighting industry, many companies have transformed into the ranks of LED lighting R&D and production, and the scale of LED lighting has continued to increase.

Under the circumstance that the export situation of LED lighting is gratifying, manufacturers still need to pay attention to product safety and quality. Dongguan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau in the first quarter of this year, the type test found that the main problems are focused on signs and instructions are not standardized, the temperature of the lamp body is too high, the structure is irrational, the components are not up to standard and so on. The reason for this is that some manufacturing companies are ambiguous about the standard concepts that LED lighting fixtures should implement, or that they are based on customer requirements. They have poor quality awareness, and even mistakenly believe that LED fixtures do not have relevant standards. As one of the lighting fixtures, LED lighting fixtures must first meet the safety requirements of the lighting fixtures, followed by the proprietary technical indicators of the LED lighting fixtures. The production company should correctly understand the requirements of the safety standards.

At the same time, foreign countries have also begun to introduce technical trade measures specifically for LED lighting. On July 1, 2011, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan issued the "Decree on Revising Part of the Enforcement Order of Electrical Appliance Safety Law." According to the latest regulations of the decree, LED light bulbs and LED light fixtures entering the Japanese market will be required to be affixed with the round PSE mark on July 1, 2012. This indicates that "LED lamps" and "LED lamps" have become the targets of the "Electrical Appliance Safety Law." At that time, LED lighting fixtures exported to Japan will be affected by this ordinance, and related production companies should respond in a timely manner. (Edit: LEDxume)
