Who is the father of Chinese tiles?
- Published: 1 Jun 2009 07:52:40
- Study of China's ceramic tiles of the development process of the past two decades, according to its characteristics, can be roughly divided into several stages, under which industries are the major changes occurred in Foshan in Guangdong:
The first phase is about before and after 1979-1986, which is ceramic tiles in the early stages across the country.
In the mid 80 century to the late 80's is a great development of China Ceramic Industry of the first phase, it can be said that under the conditions of market economy of China Ceramic Industry embryonic development period. This stage, the wave of market economy under the impact of the trial, the Chinese building ceramics industry in the introduction of technology, production levels, independent innovation, product categories, export trade, there have been some turning point of change, and in a planned economy with market economy turn of the first stars emerged in business and man. In 1989, China imported from Italy, the first of an annual output of 900,000 square meters in the Foshanproduction lines in operation, after Fotao Group, represented by large-scale Foshan ceramic enterprises from Italy, Germany, Japan and other developed countries to introduce the whole Article ceramic tile production lines and automatic presses, roller kiln, spray-drying tower and other new equipment, new technologies. Foshan in China for the production of ceramic tiles leader laid a solid foundation. 1989 Fotao Tao of industrial plants and factories started to take the lead in the production of real tiles, including ceramic production of the 600 × 900 tiles in 1996, the then General Secretary Jiang Zemin also received praise for China's Wang tiles. Fotao Group is the cradle of Foshan ceramics industry. Foshan producing the first ceramic sanitary ware, tile first film, the first film, the first film wear-resistant bricks, tiles first film, the first piece of mosaic and mosaic GLAZE, the first film outside the wall, the first film square brick, etc., are all Fotao Group from the first produced by the development. Fotao Group, directly or indirectly also support a large number of township enterprises building ceramics, building ceramics in Foshan areas led to the proliferation of all-round prosperity and development pattern, and then run the rapid development of building ceramics enterprises from the provision of production, technology to management, marketing and other aspects of experience and favorable conditions.
About the second stage before and after 1986-1992, which is a major state-owned enterprises to the development of ceramic golden era, but also the beginning of the development of township enterprises period ceramics.
During this time, the state-owned enterprises to the rapid development of ceramics, the beginning of the rise of township enterprises, Foshan ceramic machine industry began to develop, Foshan ceramics industry in China began to recognize the leader, built in 1990 Beijing Asian Games Village, 80% of the ceramic products from Foshan. In the products, wear-resistant brick-scale production began, the successful development of polished areas for mass production of polished Foshan prepared conditions.
In January 1990, Foshan Shiwan industrial ceramics plant at the time to introduce the country's largest production line of tiles, polished production. Since then, one after another throughout the introduction of polishing machine, and actively follow-up to spring up all over the polished production line, an endless stream of new products. Initially called polished brick tiles, then really polished. Specifications for the first generation of tiles 300 × 300 (mm), then appeared one after another 400 × 400 (mm), 500 × 500 (mm), 600 × 600 (mm) and greater products. Due to the impact of production equipment, polished production costs relatively high, the market of high-end products, higher prices, so at this stage has not yet become the dominant product.
The early 90s, in the "from the stone, is better than Stone", driven by the slogan, ceramic industry set off a wave of popularity of tiles production. To high-grade stone tiles for the generic object, and the following major features: the standard is getting higher and higher, getting better and better performance, more and more low prices, specifications growing more and more widely applied. Ceramic tiles manufacturers dispute on an absolute mainstream at the time, even glazed tiles manufacturers also joined the army to the production.
The third phase is about 1993-1998. Township collective enterprises during this period remarkable pace of development, production began to build factories in east China.
Across the country between the ceramic tiles production lines, "to make a fortune, engaged in building materials" has become a very fashionable slogan; In addition to outside Guangdong, Shandong, Fujian, Sichuan, Jiangxi and other areas have been developed greatly. Before and after 1994, a number of foreign (Taiwanese capital) of the enterprises in the context of Shanghai, Zhejiang and other places to invest and set up factories to form the building ceramics industry in today's high-priced products than influential areas of eastern China. Foshan ceramics due to market demand in order to Shiwan, Nanzhuang ceramics represented by township enterprises unprecedented development.
The fourth stage after 1998, private enterprises have become the ceramics industry, the leading force in ceramics. During this period, private enterprises and ceramic machine ceramic industry was the rapid development of private capital has become a major force in the industry.
After 2000, the Ceramic Industry in Guangdong and gradually entered a mature stage. Large enterprise groups in order to reduce production costs, the beginning of a new production structure, one after another to carry out technical transformation of raw materials or to the advantage of fuel and set up regional investment, and a number of emerging enterprises have begun to expand the scale of investment follow-up. Thus began to take shape as the Business Center in Foshan to other advantages of the region (including raw materials, fuels, geographic location, investment policy, etc.) as a new form of production bases.
Because of this, China is the father of tiles should be deliberate, the first tiles imported from Italy, and later in Fotao industrial plants and factories to begin production of ceramic tiles genuine, not a business or a is the father of China's ceramic tiles. Tile World Forum 2001 in Guangdong and Shanghai, organized, this is a person worthy of the Chinese building ceramics industry event to remember forever. Ceramic production in Europe through the conference found that China has to catch up with the tiles and even more than its own. Thus, the Italian ceramic industry associations and other countries will be announced after the cessation of further expansion into tiles, only to maintain our production scale, while China and other countries to increase the amount of OEM and R & D towards the main area of antique brick . This indicates that China officially became the world's major powers of the tiles, a leading global production and sales of tiles. According to relevant statistics: the peak of Chinese products accounted for 70% of world output more than tiles.
