2021 03/23

At present, China's new crown epidemic has been effectively controlled, but the foreign epidemic situation has not dispersed. Recently, the reporter came to a mask production workshop of Huaxi Eisai Co., Ltd. in Changyuan City, Henan Province, and saw that more than 20 production lines were still roaring and running at high speed. The masks went from raw materials to finished products in one go, and more than 20 on-site workers with strict protection People subcontract a production line, or inspect machines, or count and pack boxes. "This is an order for Carrefour in France, which is producing 26 million masks. Since the epidemic, this is the fifth time Carrefour has placed an order. The return of the order is our best affirmation." said Cui Wenbo, general manager of the company.

How to guarantee the quality of masks exported? "You must first obtain the professional certification of the exporting country, such as the EU CE certification, before you can sell it abroad." Cui Wenbo told reporters, don't look at just a small mask, from raw materials to finished products, whether it is non-woven or melt blown cloth. It requires multiple quality inspections and checks and screenings at all levels.

In the company's inspection room, reporters saw that all kinds of testing instruments were lined up, and several staff members were testing and recording data. In front of the ZR-1200 mask resistance tester, a staff member is testing different positions of a roll of meltblown cloth, repeating the operation many times, and recording the pressure difference data; in the ZR-1006 mask particle filtration efficiency and airflow resistance tester Earlier, the operator was passing a simulation test to test the particle filtration efficiency (PFE) of the meltblown cloth; the reporter could see through the transfer window, two staff wearing dust-proof and purification overalls, wearing sterile masks, sitting in ZR -1000 Medical Surgical Mask Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) test is carried out before the bacterial filtration efficiency tester, and the action is meticulous... "The European Union`s bacterial filtration efficiency standards are relatively finely divided, and some masks are the same as the domestic standard, which is more than 95%. Some masks require more than 98%. Our self-inspection standards are based on more than 98%, regardless of whether the masks are ultimately sold or exported." The company's quality department director Yun Yong said, "A mask is imported from the raw material for inspection and the intermediate process From the control inspection to the final product factory inspection, a total of more than a dozen item inspections and the use of nearly 20 kinds of testing equipment are required, such as the appearance of the mask, the smell, the size of the nose clip, the breaking strength of the mask band, the pressure difference, and the penetration of synthetic blood. , Particle filtration efficiency, bacterial filtration efficiency, flame retardant performance, sterility performance, detection of residual ethylene oxide, etc."

Quality is life, especially for professional brands of more than 20 years. It is understood that since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia in 2020, Huaxi Company has increased its investment by more than 30 million yuan to urgently purchase more than 400 sets of production equipment, increasing the daily production capacity of masks from the original hundreds of thousands to 12 million; protective clothing The daily production capacity increased from more than 700 sets to more than 15,000 sets. It not only successfully completed the national purchasing and storage tasks, and provided medical protective materials for the domestic anti-epidemic front line, but also exported to Thailand, Brazil, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, South Africa, etc. Countries. Up to now, more than 50 million disposable medical masks and more than 160 million medical surgical masks have been exported. Thanks to the calls from customers, no complaints or objections have been received.

Yu Jiaxuan, the head of the foreign trade department of Henan Yadu Industrial Co., Ltd., both in Changyuan and the industry`s leading enterprise, told reporters that since the epidemic, the company has exported hundreds of millions of masks and about 1 million protective clothing, and has not received any complaints or objections. . "Practice has proved that the so-called quality problems of Chinese export masks are mostly the result of middlemen or foreign customers greedy for cheap prices. If the purchasing company strictly controls all aspects of the supplier`s qualifications, there will be no quality problems; if the purchasing company wants to be cheaper and cheaper Choosing some unqualified companies or even small workshops is easy to be deceived. But after being deceived, it is too contrary to the fact that the quality of Chinese masks is not good. This is like asking a horse to run without giving it to the horse. Eating grass is definitely unscientific." Yu Jiaxuan said.
