Recently, on the 2022 green manufacturing list announced by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, 21 home furnishing enterprises were selected as nationally recognized green manufacturing enterprises. This is the most time in recent years that home furnishing enterprises have been included in the green manufacturing list, and it also means that the home furnishing industry is fully entering a new stage of green and low-carbon development.
It is understood that a healthy home environment has attracted the attention of the country, industry, and consumers. More and more brands are paying attention to the business philosophy of sustainable development and ecological health, accelerating the implementation of green actions. Industry insiders express the hope that through the polishing and sedimentation of the market, enterprises can continuously break through the decoration difficulties of consumers in the future, achieve a transition from a single home green environmental protection product to an overall home space, and provide true "whole house environmental protection" for consumption.
In the list of green manufacturing released this time, 21 home furnishing enterprises, including Sofia Home, Zhibang Home, Tiantan Furniture, Qumei Home, Henglin Home, Fujian Dushi Wood Industry, Furen Wood Industry, Libon Coatings, Jiabaoli Coatings, and Qisheng, are all among them, forming the important home furnishing sector in green manufacturing.
It is understood that in previous years, in the "Green Factory, Green Design Products, Green Supply Chain Management Enterprises and Other Green Manufacturing List" of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, although there were some home furnishing enterprises, due to the small number of selected companies, only a few industry leading enterprises were listed, so the home furnishing industry accounted for a small proportion in this list. In the "2022 Green Manufacturing List" released this time, there are as many as 21 home furnishing enterprises, and green and low-carbon have become a common consensus among home furnishing enterprises.
It is understood that in the past two years, a series of favorable policies have been introduced for the home furnishing industry. In August 2022, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Rural Development, the Ministry of Commerce, and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly issued the "Action Plan for Promoting the High Quality Development of the Home Industry", proposing to promote the improvement of the quality of home products and services and the upgrading of industrial clusters. Industry insiders believe that the 13 directions of the action plan set clear requirements and development paths for the core sectors of the home furnishings industry, which are of great significance for regulating the future development of the industry and clarifying the direction and standards of enterprise development.
Industry experts believe that green development is an inevitable trend in the field of home building materials. A series of activities and policies have pointed out the future market direction for home enterprises. Both the building materials and home industry should develop towards green and environmental protection, accelerate industrial transformation and upgrading, stimulate consumers' environmental awareness and green consumption concept, and be the vanguard of the "dual carbon" strategy.
Accelerate the implementation of green activities by enterprises
In addition to the continuous benefits of national policies, home furnishing enterprises are also increasingly emphasizing "green and low-carbon". Recently, multiple companies have released new low-carbon measures, and reducing carbon throughout the entire industry chain has become a consensus.
