Xinji Takes Advantage Of Environmental Protection To Plan A New Round Of Leather Industry Development

"Pollution control level is a lifeline for the development of leather industry. Many enterprises are faced with the risk of being forced to close when they fail to meet environmental standards or are difficult to digest.

However, there is no such situation in Xinji, because Xinji's environmental protection work has been carried out relatively early, and now has formed a relatively perfect sewage pollution control system. Environmental protection has not only brought great pressure to Xinji's enterprises, but also brought new opportunities to the development of leather industry in Xinji.

Wang Tieren, deputy mayor in charge of leather industry development in Xinji, told reporters that before he accepted the interview, he had just returned from his investigation in the south. He also had a mysterious task: "South shoes north."

Wang Tieren said: "Xinji now has the largest and most environmentally-friendly leather tanning base in the country. With the deepening of the national environmental protection undertaking, Xinji's industrial advantages and environmental advantages will become a" trump card "of Xinji. On this basis, attracting the upstream and downstream enterprises to Xinji will become Xinji's new economic growth point.

One of the important tasks of my visit is to negotiate some brand shoemaking enterprises in the south to attract them to build factories in Xinji.

Xu Min, deputy director of Xinji Leather Industry Development Committee and Deputy Secretary General of Xinji Leather Association, told reporters that Xinji has attracted famous Taiwanese footwear enterprises to enter the industrial area. After the first phase of its construction and operation, the Japanese shoemaking capacity will reach 40 thousand pairs.

In addition, Xinji is also negotiating with several domestic and foreign shoe manufacturers to set up factories.

It is not because Xinji is lucky that we can seize the development opportunities under the severe market situation. It is the comparative advantage accumulated by Xinji people over the years in adhering to Scientific Outlook on Development, long-term planning, teamwork and sustainable development.

30 years development achievement "China skin capital"

According to Xu Min, the fur industry of Xinji began in Ming Dynasty and flourished in Qing Dynasty. It has a history of more than 300 years, and is known as "Xinji's fur is the best in the world".

The rapid development of Xinji's modern leather industry is after the reform and opening up.

Since the implementation of the household contract responsibility system in 1982, a large number of surplus labor force has been separated from rural areas. A group of farmers who used to engage in leather industry have resumed their old businesses, and private leather factories and leather companies have mushroomed mushrooming.

Since 1993, the Xinji municipal government has successively planned and constructed leather city and tannery area, and has built up intensive scale operation, injected vitality into the rapid development of the industry, and formed the development pattern of garment making and tannery industrial area being kept abreast of one another and promoting each other.

Over the years, Xinji has unswervingly clutched the leather industry to the park, expanded its scale, adjusted its structure, and created famous brand names. The overall strength, product quality and economic benefits of leather industry have been improved rapidly. In 2001, it was jointly awarded the "leather leather capital of China" by the China Light Industry Federation and the China Leather Association. In 2006, it passed the reappraisal.

Xinji has become the largest production base of sheepskin garments and the largest leather sheepskin base in Asia.

At present, the Xinji clothing area covers an area of 1942 mu, with a construction area of 1 million 700 thousand square meters, a fixed assets of 1 billion 600 million yuan, a tannery area of 1680 mu, a building area of 700 thousand square meters, and a fixed assets of 1 billion 460 million yuan. The leather enterprises in the city reach 1105, employing more than 60 thousand people, including 105 leather making enterprises, 565 garment enterprises, and 105 leather and leather enterprises.

In accordance with the train of thought of science and technology, quality and industry, Xinji has established a cooperative relationship with 11 famous scientific research institutions at home and abroad. The research institutes of the China Leather Research Institute and the Xinji leather Productivity Promotion Center have been set up, and successfully developed 4 new more than 100 categories of leather products, including Nei conquer, sheepskin reverse wear, fur clothing, new material fabrics, and other new leather products, including leather, leather, upholstery leather, sheepskin, leather, washed leather, shrink leather and wrestling.
