In the interview, the reporter learned that in recent years, Jiangsu Peixian dragon Guzhen hand cushion processing industry has developed rapidly, and is suffering from no sales channels, and has been doing product OEM for more famous enterprises in China for many years.

In order to investigate the production status and scale of the brand cushion foundries, reporters came to dragon Guzhen in April 5th.

Reporters saw that on the two sides of the 263 National Road across Guzhen, many workers in the face room were weaving cushions, and these door rooms did not hang signs or factory names.

The reporter walked into a door room and talked with shopkeepers in the name of buying a cushion.

"How do you sell your cushions?" the reporter asked.

"We do not retail, it is a substitute for Zhejiang enterprises."

The shopkeeper said.

Subsequently, the reporter learned that the workshop foundry is Zhejiang's more famous Wen Fung brand cushion.

According to shopkeepers, they are only responsible for weaving the positive part of the cushion, sending the semi-finished products to Zhejiang, and sewing the back and OEM sales by the Wen Feng brand enterprise.

When the reporter asked what the filler was in the round line, the shopkeeper was very vigilant and did not answer.

The reporter came to Zhang Wang Zhuang village in Guzhen.

In a farmyard, which also serves as a foundry for Wen Feng card, the reporter saw that a cottage machine was placed in the cabin of the hospital, and a white cotton yarn was made into a cotton core with thick and thin circular lines. The machine started and the dust dispersed from one strand. The workers stood outside the door with a mask to observe the production.

The farmer asked the reporter warily: "you are not coming down to check it? I heard that the news has exposed the" black heart cotton "cushion. We stopped working for some time ago, and we are just beginning to do it now.

They said they should pay attention to outsiders wearing glasses.

After leaving Zhang Wang Zhuang, the reporter came to a farmer's home in Yao Lou village, Guzhen, Henan Province. A huge Heng Yuan Xiang poster was posted in the center of the courtyard.

"We give Heng Yuan Xiang to do the job."

The owner said.

He brought reporters into a room, stacked with piles of cushions printed with Heng Yuan Xiang.

Lao Zhang said, because the output of each family is small, so we work together for Heng Yuan Xiang.

When the reporter asked Lao Zhang to help himself, he replied, "yes, the price is 550 yuan per set.

We can make the finished products for you, you can sell your brand directly.

Raw materials, like Heng Yuan Xiang, are also compiled by workers.

Under the guidance of Lao Zhang, the reporter came to a cushion factory in the new village of dragon Guzhen.

In the warehouse of the factory, the reporter saw a worker sewing the cushion.

Beside the sewing machine, a label was printed on the label "Heng Yuan Xiang", and a box of 10 fen coins was placed on the table.

The reporter asked, "what is the use of the magnet?" the worker said with a smile. "They want to stick on the cushion. They say they have the function of magnetic therapy. There are so many sticky sticky on a mat. I don't think it will work."

The factory owner of the cushion factory told reporters that they gave Heng Yuan Xiang and Cezanne an impression of the brand cushion foundry, because their brand was not well-known, and it was not easy to sell, so it had not been listed.

According to Liu Sihai, President of the Guzhen automobile cushion Processing Association, many years ago, longGuzhen mainly gave Heng Yuan Xiang, Wen Feng, Cezanne impression, Bai Xiang and other famous brand foundry production seats, and the raw materials used by all the houses were basically similar.

In April 10th, the reporter got the news that the Dragon Guzhen government convened part of the cushion enterprise to convene a meeting, ordered to temporarily close all the hand woven car cushion production enterprises in the jurisdiction area, and if unauthorized start production, it will be resolutely banned.

At present, the various brands of factories have also been closed down.

Enterprise outlet

Finding alternative materials becomes a top priority.

Many companies that use black heart cotton to make car cushions have stopped production or started looking for alternative raw cotton cores.

Lu manager of Harbin Yilong Shijia brand cushion told reporters that the product of the company moved from black grey cotton line to white cotton thread for cotton core. In view of environmental protection and safety considerations, the products in 2012 began to use non-woven fabrics as cushion cotton core.

"I have not seen the cotton mill manufacturer, but I heard others say that the cotton thread used for the cushion is broken by old clothes, medical waste, leftovers, and then made of chemical fiber, and this material is certainly not good for the human body, so we have been actively looking for alternative raw materials."

Said Lu manager.

"We are now experimentation with non-woven fabrics and hemp."

Yanggu Baifeng brand cushion LV manager told reporters in April 1st, "non-woven fabrics are soft and easy to deform after being made into cushions.

And the texture of the hemp is stiff, and it feels uncomfortable sitting there.

Therefore, how to match them to overcome their shortcomings is the main task we need to do in the near future.

Yanggu Tianlong brand cushion mat manager said, "black heart cotton" cushion has been exposed, manufacturers will choose environmentally friendly materials to produce cushion, once considered brown, but Brown will be divided into sections after the rope, the circular line is not smooth.

Now we can only slowly find out alternatives to environmental protection.

Peixian long Guzhen ALCA brand cushion manager Zhu also told reporters that non-woven fabrics and hemp are ideal alternative materials at present.

"Now we are trying to wrap the nonwoven fabric outside the hemp rope, which will make the non-woven fabric hard and not easy to deform.

If the experiment is successful, all enterprises in Guzhen will adopt this method. "

Zhu manager said.

Heng Yuan Xiang brand cushion Beijing sales center, South Korea manager said that they have been using materials in the industry, the cotton core health indicators have been tested, is qualified.

It is now known that cotton core raw materials are prohibited by the state and will be jointly established by factories to study new raw materials as soon as possible.

"The price of pure cotton is too high, and the enterprises that use it may not be for the time being."

Henan Nile brand cushion general manager, told reporters in April 6th, "big companies want to produce high quality products. As long as we have good raw materials, we are willing to try. In fact, the use of high price raw material cushion will increase the cost of dozens of yuan, which has little impact on us.

We have also realized that this kind of cotton core is not environmentally friendly, so this year we have replaced the new material to produce hand woven cushion.

Industry voice

Standards need to be published

Shandong Yanggu County, Jiangsu Peixian dragon Guzhen, Heilongjiang Bin County and Lanxi County, Zhejiang Tiantai county are the main producing areas of our country's hand woven cushion.

Recently, the reporter interviewed the leaders of the leading industry associations.

Ye Bofu, vice president of Taizhou automotive supplies industry association, told reporters that some of the cushion enterprises in Taizhou also used unqualified cotton cores. After the media exposure, some enterprises had already lost the cotton thread they used before.

"We all need to produce according to standards.

In this regard, Xing Yufen said, now the car seat cushion core material prices to reach 15 thousand yuan per ton or more, it is possible to qualify as raw materials for daily necessities.

Below 10 thousand yuan per ton, health indicators may exceed the standard.

She said frankly that the quality of the national standard of hand woven cushion has almost no core.

Take any manufacturer's cushion to the relevant department for testing, and may not be qualified.
