Car companies in this epidemic have what actions to support the prevention and control of the epidemic? Of course, donating money and materials is the most common, we can get this information from various channels. But there are also some car companies do contribute at the same time also play tricks.
Currently, masks and disinfectant water are in short supply, so some car companies have even played a cross-border. These materials can not be bought, we will build their own factories. The most typical is SAIC-GM-Wuling and BYD, let's say.
With the support of many forces, SAIC-GM-Wuling mobilized its own supplier, Guangxi DeFuTe Group, to produce masks. What does DeForte do? It operates in the production of automotive interior parts. Of course, it does not mean that immediately into the raw materials can be directly produced masks, Guangxi Construction Group is responsible for the original production workshop in Guangxi DeFuTe Group converted into 2000m2 dust-free workshop.
This is in line with the production conditions of the mask, the daily output of masks will reach 1.7 million, and the query of Guangxi DeFuTe Co., Ltd. in February 6 issued a new license shows that the company's scope of business added to the medical masks, medical protective clothing, medical equipment production and sales. This speed is indeed fast, just on February 8, the first batch of 200,000 masks off the line.
And BYD's production of masks for the outside world declared daily capacity is 5 million, is expected to start production on February 17th. In addition to the masks, the BYD Central Research Institute in Huizhou is also responsible for producing 50,000 pints of disinfectant water per day.
Of course not only SAIC-GM-Wuling, BYD, like Sinopec, Foxconn and other enterprises to switch to the production of masks, in addition to Shaanxi Automobile is 2 days to complete the production of goggles required for the preparation of the work, the successful assembly of samples of goggles to meet the requirements of the use of the epidemic, the daily assembly capacity of more than 3,000.
E company joint eye of the statistics, to the business registration change information as a standard, since January 1, 2020 to February 7, more than 3,000 companies nationwide business scope of the new "masks, protective clothing, disinfectant, thermometer, medical equipment" and other businesses.
There are 3,647 companies that have added medical devices to their scope of business. 1.4 billion people have a huge demand for masks, and masks are not like fried food in restaurants, fried and served on the table, masks need to result in the process of parsing, disinfection, and this time will take 7-15 days. Of course, the whole country is united, the mask problem will certainly gradually ease.
Also there are car companies that do not play cross-border, but also from the point of view of serving the owners to care. For example, Azalea issued anti-epidemic kits to each Azalea owner, with a total budget of 2 million yuan. For diagnosed car owners and families (including spouses, parents and children), the Azera User Trust will provide 50,000 yuan of care and condolences for each family, with a total budget of 500,000 yuan. The other is that the main car user or spouse is a health care worker and put into the fight against the epidemic in Hubei, each person will be given 10,000 yuan of condolences, with a total budget of 100,000 yuan.
Geely's choice, on the other hand, is from technology. Geely's official news said it will develop the IAPS intelligent air purification system to achieve an effective barrier and filtration of bacteria and viruses into the car. The system's filtration standard is N95, an analogy similar to putting an N95 mask on a car. Geely's own goal is to complete the research and development of the intelligent air purification system within 20 days to reach mass production standards, and will realize mass production within 30 days.
Geely had previously donated 150 Jiaji to the outbreak area, so the first batch of IAPS intelligent air purification systems will be installed on those 150 Jiaji. After this epidemic, the probability is that the demand for in-car air purification system functions will be pushed to a new height. In the future, people buying a car may not only ask for luxury configuration and large space, but also want to have an air purification system in case of emergencies.
Finally, I hope we can get through this as soon as possible, so we can all take care of ourselves and protect ourselves.
