The recent epidemic situation began to develop in the direction of good, but in the face of the Spring Festival return, the return to work and other days of the arrival of masks, disinfectant and other protective materials have become the most sought-after commodities.
Some people say that there is no shortage of things, and people are going to grab them, so there is no shortage. Seemingly reasonable, but there is no way to help the need for a large number of protective materials to support the epidemic area, coupled with hundreds of millions of people in China need to travel with masks, the huge consumption has long exceeded the average daily output of manufacturers, supply does not meet demand.
But I recently received news that many traditional enterprises have shown their social responsibility, from the original industry to separate part of the production line, used to produce masks, including Sinopec, Foxconn, Daddy's Baby, etc., and part of the enterprise transition to do protective clothing, such as red bean shares and Mercury Home Textiles.
And we are more concerned about the automotive sector, there are also three car companies to do the production of masks "part-time", and some even directly transformed to do masks.
BYD: production of masks and disinfectant, the fastest shipments in the middle of the month
On February 8, BYD officially announced that it will deploy resources to produce masks and disinfectant, and other industry enterprises to change the type of transfer of production is different, BYD is located in Shantou, Guangdong Province, BYD Industrial Company directly into the disinfectant company, and masks are handed over to the ninth division of Shenzhen BYD for production. It is worth mentioning that the ninth division in addition to the traditional OEM automobile production business, and medical device system certification. About the transition, BYD not only come seriously, but also very hardcore.
Online circulated BYD disinfectant and mask production company manual, the current product is expected to ship as soon as possible around February 17, at the end of February can achieve an average daily production of 5 million masks, 50,000 bottles of disinfectant scale.
But on the latest news, this time BYD production of masks will not accept individual orders for pre-sale, only to the government, units and hospitals and other public accounts pre-sale. But it is believed that the shortage of masks will be alleviated with the support of BYD this time.
Shanghai Automotive General Motors (SAIC) Wuling: prepared, set up 14 production lines
Maybe many people do not know, as early as January 31, SAIC Wuling took the lead in the procurement of 20,000 medical masks from Indonesia for the front line of the fight against the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic in Liuzhou City. And among the car companies that have transformed to produce masks, Wuling's action is also the fastest.
With strong support from the Guangxi government, SAIC-GM-Wuling has teamed up with acoustic cotton supplier Guangxi DeFuTe to convert its original production workshop into a 2,000-square-meter dust-free workshop, and plans to build 14 mask production lines, including four for N95 masks and 10 for medical surgical masks, with an expected daily production capacity of 1.7 million.
Guangzhou Automobile Group: has appointed staff to visit the manufacturer
Compared with the first two car companies, Guangzhou Automobile's actions are relatively cautious. For traditional car companies, the transition is really much more difficult than donations and juan materials, so not many companies really take this step.
And the Guangzhou Automobile Group also as a state-owned enterprise, in the transformation of the production of masks in the speed of the natural than private enterprises, but at present the group's leadership team has rushed to Dongguan mask production equipment manufacturers to conduct research, research on the technical feasibility of a new production line of masks, and sent a number of employees to participate in the 15-day study, I believe the implementation of the production line is not long to come.
Writing in the end
An outbreak of an epidemic can not only show the strength of a country, but also reflect the unity of all sectors of society. As we reap the rewards of being touched, we will also witness the victory of the Chinese nation over this unsmoked war.
