With the opportunity of the "2012 Automobile and Tire Industry Summit Forum and Global Business Summit" held in Beijing, Tire World Net recently conducted an interview with Ding Yuhua, chairman of the Triangular Group Co., Ltd., which hosted the forum.
Tyres become important carriers of energy-saving innovations in automobiles. Tire World Net: In recent years, the world is almost enveloped in the shadow of the economic crisis. In the face of a severe economic environment, major companies are striving to find a way out for sustainable development. The idea is also thinking more deeply. What's your opinion on this?
Ding Yuhua: In the past three years, the United Nations has held three global climate conferences in Copenhagen, Cancun, and Durban to discuss how to better handle the relationship between economic development and energy, the environment, society, and humanity, and gradually reached coordination in all fields. Development consensus.
We can see that all countries in the world are doing everything possible to find ways to deal with the economic crisis. At the same time, they are generally beginning to realize that protecting the human environment requires companies to attach great importance to and shoulder greater responsibilities. And this will increasingly become an urgent and significant issue.
Tire World Net: With the increasing economic development of society, what kind of relationship is there between energy, environment and economy?
Ding Yuhua: In October 2009, our Triangle Tire organized the “International Summit on Sustainable Development of the Tire Industry†in Weihai City, Shandong Province. It has been more than two years since. In the past two years or so, the world is changing, China is also changing in development, and the automobile and tire industries are also changing.
The contradictions between the economy, energy, and the environment that continue to emerge in the course of its development have become more prominent. Human society has also increasingly felt the urgency and severity of "protecting the global environment."
As the economy becomes more and more globalized, it is no exaggeration to say that at present, human society’s concerns about energy consumption and environmental crisis are even more prominent than those of the economic crisis.
As we have seen, for a long time, the energy crisis and the economic crisis have been intertwined. Every change in the relationship between them has brought about a certain degree of resistance to the development of the global economy and social civilization, and even stopped. And ignoring a series of problems brought about by energy conservation, environmental protection and ecological health has added to people’s greater responsibilities for future changes in economic and social development and even the survival of humankind.
Tire World Net: With the deepening of people's concerns about energy and environmental crisis, in the automobile industry, the demand for "energy saving and environmental protection" is getting higher and higher. What does this mean for the tire industry?
Ding Yuhua: The development of the automotive industry is an important symbol of industrialization, and it is also an important part of the human society’s large-scale production and progress in civilization. At present, China has more than 100 million vehicles and its annual output exceeds 18 million for two consecutive years. This indicates that China has entered the automobile society.
Many people may not know that tires, as an important high-speed running part of a car, consume more than 20% of the energy consumption of the entire vehicle during the driving of the car, second only to the engine. Therefore, energy-saving tire products can bring more than 5% fuel economy to the car. This makes tires an important vehicle for energy-saving and emission reduction technology innovation in automobiles.
Tire World Net: Since tires have such an important role in energy saving and consumption reduction of automobiles, will “green and environmental protection†also become the development trend of the tire industry?
Ding Yuhua: From November 1, 2012, the world’s developed countries and regions began to implement mandatory decrees, which require graded management of tires, and clearly define fuel economy, energy consumption efficiency, and noise to further improve tires. The use of access standards, and to promote the acceleration of business development of green products. China is also accelerating the research and development of standards for the integration of green manufacturing and consumption in order to promote the upgrading and upgrading of tire products.
We can see that efforts to promote and encourage consumers' green consumption have become mainstream, including not only automobiles and tires, but also other manufacturing industries. It should be said that in the context of economic globalization, energy conservation, safety, and environmental protection have increasingly become the core of the global automotive industry revolution.
To take the road of "low-carbon economy, green manufacturing" Tire World Net: Does this "green consumption" trend signify the progress of manufacturing producers?
Ding Yuhua: Fundamentally speaking, this is a new understanding and positioning of people's economic development and the relationship between human survival and the natural environment. As Premier Wen Jiabao put forward in this year’s “Government Work Reportâ€: Industrial development must not be traded in exchange for sacrificing the ecological environment and people’s health. We must step out of a road of civilized development with development in production, prosperity in life, and good ecology.
Tire World Net: In the face of this trend, as the leading brand of domestic tire companies, Triangle Tire has already done, or what kind of positive efforts it intends to make?
Ding Yuhua: The development of the automobile and tire industries should be based on the development of human society's material civilization, spiritual civilization, and ecological civilization. As a member of the global tire industry, I have been emphasizing that the Delta Group must be based on economic responsibility, social responsibility and environmental responsibility to complete the coordinated development of the "trinity" and take the path of "low-carbon economy, green manufacturing". Create a New Productivity Model for the Sustainable Development of the Tire Industry.
The basic environmental policy of the Triangle Group has always been to protect the global environment, build green homes, implement clean production, and conserve resources and energy. Moreover, for a long time, energy saving and emission reduction projects have been the "green light" projects invested by the company.
Tire World Net: Does this mean that your company must increase investment in "energy conservation and environmental protection"? What is the result of this?
Ding Yuhua: In the past five years, the company's investment in energy-saving technologies has reached a total of 1.5 billion yuan, and the energy utilization efficiency has maintained an annual growth rate of 4%.
In 2011, the company closed a production line with 34 years of production history. Although the products on the line have a certain market space and profitability at home and abroad, in order to save energy, reduce emissions, speed up technology upgrades, and replace products, the company did so at no cost.
At present, the new product line after the transformation can basically achieve an energy saving effect of more than 15%, and can also make full use of clean energy in the production process; at the same time, this line also adopts digital technology and robot operation technology on the manufacturing system. Bar code intelligent technology, etc., realized the centralized management and control of information in the whole process of production, inspection and logistics, and embarked on a new path of “green smart factory†operation.
Tire World Net: It can be seen that Delta Group does have enough emphasis on “energy saving and environmental protectionâ€. How can you ensure the final realization of the goals in your company's various plans and ideas?
Ding Yuhua: To achieve these goals, it mainly relies on two things: First, rely on technological innovation to promote industrial upgrading; second, use standards to lead the industry.
In recent years, the company has invested a large amount of funds, focusing on the construction of two major scientific research platforms of the National Technology Development Center and the National Tire Technology and Manufacturing Technology Engineering Laboratory, and has gone abroad to carry out technological research and development and strategic cooperation, strengthening international cooperation in science and technology and innovation platform for production, learning, research. .
In 2011, the company established the US Scientific Research Center, and conducted research cooperation with Akron University in the United States to research and develop advanced technologies. At the same time, in China, Harbin Institute of Technology, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Tianjin University, Beijing Rubber Industry Research and Design Institute, Sinopec and other strategic cooperation, research and development of new materials, new processes, new equipment and product basic theoretical research, key technology research.
Tire World Net: What efforts has your company made in the development of industry standards?
Ding Yuhua: As the chairman unit of the China Tire Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance, the chairman of the China Rubber Industry Association Tire Branch, and the chairman of the National Tire Rim Standardization Committee, Delta Group has always insisted that: in the process of industrial development, standardization should be the same as international Connected.
In recent years, the company has participated in the formulation of 35 national standards. In 2011, the company represented the industry and participated in the UN World Vehicle Regulatory Forum (WP29) held in Geneva to participate in the formulation of the "Global Tire Technical Regulations."
At present, the company is working with the relevant agencies of the state to initiate the "green tire industrialization" strategy and jointly research and formulate new tire technical performance standards, testing standards and environmental standards. Through the establishment of advanced technology thresholds and access thresholds, to promote the continuous improvement of product development and environmental protection level.
Building a New Green Economy Model Tire World Net: Facing the opportunities and challenges of economic globalization, and the increasingly high standards and requirements of the industrial environment for enterprises, the focus of the work of the Delta Group in the future will be to advance to the world standard. ?
Ding Yuhua: In the process of global economic development, we face both the challenges of economic crisis and environmental issues, and also the strategic opportunities for the development of science and technology. The Delta Group will always adhere to “provide better products and services to global consumers and build green "Homeland"'s mission, and we already have a concrete plan.
On the one hand, it is committed to building a new economic model of “green products + green manufacturing + green supply chain + green consumptionâ€. Through the construction of a green industrialization base, clean production will be implemented, and energy efficiency will be achieved on the basis of 2010, and will increase by more than 15%.
On the basis of the REACH decree that has passed the EU and other countries, we continue to study advanced science and technology in the field of materials, develop and apply new materials that are conducive to energy conservation and environmental protection, and establish and operate the company's "green" supply chain access system.
We will vigorously develop “green products†with low energy consumption, low noise, and high safety performance standards. We will establish the company’s internal control standards based on the laws and regulations of developed countries and regions, so that the proportion of the company’s green products will reach an advanced level. We will realize the large-scale development of circular economy and actively promote and practice the green chain of building product market services.
Tire World Net: This requires companies to further strengthen their ability to innovate in technology, right?
Ding Yuhua: Yes, we must speed up the establishment and use of the productivity of technological innovation to provide better products for the global market.
At present, the company has achieved more than 200 independent innovation achievements in the fields of product design, material mechanics, manufacturing process, and equipment level, and has successfully achieved industrialization.
On this basis, we will focus on research, development and use of key technologies such as composite materials applications, mechanical simulation technologies, high-tech products, product testing technologies, and integrated manufacturing systems through innovations in research and development platforms at home and abroad, as well as research and development forces. Constantly improve the gold content of technology in various fields, and increase the value of green products and brands in terms of design, manufacturing, and services.
Tire World Net: To achieve this goal, how can your company guarantee talent?
Ding Yuhua: We will firmly pursue an open global talent strategy and build an international talent team.
In recent years, we have faced the world, and we have introduced more than 50 experts and senior-level talents from different countries and regions. This has enabled our company's talent structure to be further improved, and the core technology and management team have been further strengthened.
In the coming period, the company will continue to promote the international development strategy of “going global†in technology, manufacturing, marketing, and services. Create a talented team with international vision, regional resources, and strong learning and execution skills. This is an important task for the development of the triangular cause at present and in the future.
