2010, "World Expo, Shanghai".

low-carbon economy

"Global warming has aroused global attention, and all walks of life face different levels of thinking and Reform in order to adapt to the new way of life.

Especially for those who have always stressed the importance of "green".

Down products

"Low carbon" will become a more important concern.

In the new situation, "low carbon" can not be avoided. "Low carbon economy" is a socioeconomic model characterized by low energy consumption, low emission and low pollution.

It provides a win-win option for solving the problem of climate warming, energy security crisis and sustained economic growth.

As a pillar industry of light industry, feather down products have been paid attention to.

On the one hand, conform to

Strategy of sustainable development

To build a healthier home, to protect the environment, to save energy and to reduce pollution, to build an environment-friendly society has become the general requirement of the society. On the other hand, because the low carbon down products are more natural and comfortable in terms of material and technology, they are deeply loved by consumers. "Buying low carbon" becomes a fashionable and healthy consumption slogan.

How to understand low carbon down products? In a broader sense, "low carbon" does not lie in the low carbon content, nor in the low carbon content of raw materials.

"Low carbon" is a summation of environmental awareness. It is a production principle that emphasizes both environment and product economy.

That is to say, low carbon can achieve "low carbon economy" from raw materials, production technology innovation, product design, multi-function development and so on.

"Low carbon" is facing the test of "EU environmental standards". "EU environmental standards" is one of the environmental barriers to enter the EU market. However, the European Union recently revised the new standard of environmental labels for imported textiles and mattresses: requiring textiles including down products to restrict the use of harmful substances in fibers, reduce the risk of allergic reactions, improve the ability to prevent shrinkage and prevent decolorization, and put forward stricter restrictions on the use of mattress materials, the level of toxic residues, especially the mattress and indoor air pollution.

This shows that "low carbon" down products not only need "low carbon economy" but also need to integrate with the international environment, so that low carbon can go further.

"Low carbon" down down clothing is the most important part of down down clothing, and its "low carbon" is mainly focused on the environmental management standards such as "credit guarantee sign for feather products", ISO14001 certification, "PAS2060 - carbon neutralization new standard".

Among them, the "feather product credit guarantee logo" indicates that the raw material quality and processing quality inspection of down products conform to the national and industrial standards; the ISO14001 certification is the ISO14001 environmental management system certification, which proves that the organization has reached the international level in environmental management, and can ensure that all kinds of pollutants control in various processes, products and activities of the enterprise can meet the relevant requirements. "PAS2060 - carbon neutral commitment new standard" was established in May 19, 2010 by the British Standards Association and officially released in the UK.

Based on existing environmental standards such as ISO14000 series and PAS2050, PAS2060 puts forward the regulations to achieve and implement carbon neutral organizations through quantification, reduction and compensation of greenhouse gas emissions.

Bosideng, Eral, Yalu Wenhua feather and other well-known domestic down garment enterprises have made unremitting efforts in this respect.

Take Wenhua down garment as an example. In the early years, it won the "feather and down product credit guarantee mark" and became the "exemption product". In 2002, after passing the "ISO9001:2000 certification" in 2002, it passed the "ISO14001:1996 certification" in 2005.

As a down product enterprise with an export rate of up to 70%, Wenhua down will take the "EU environmental standards" and "PAS2060" as a higher requirement, and continuously make technological innovations and raw materials and design improvements, so that Wenhua down garments will be integrated with international "low carbon" at an early date.
