why do we call a porcelain dish a china work?

why do we call a porcelain dish a china work?
ceramics, pots, vases, and other things like that are called china. but why?

Because, for many, many years, the finest porcelain work came from China. China and porcelain were known synonomously.

A good analogy is the beverage called tea. Tea used to come, exclusively, from a variety of tea leaves. Now, herbs (that are not from the tea family) comprise many types of beverages called 'Tea', hence, herbal teas. There is no tea in the mix, but it's called tea to help the drinker understand that the herbs are consumed in the same way as tea leaves.

Porcelain is still called China, in part as recognition of the Chinese superiority in the manufacture of the product for such a very long time. And, in part in recognition of the process by which the porcelain is manufactured.

Industrial Ceramics: 70% market share of joy and worry

  Since the seventies and eighties of the last century developed the world's first quality of a man-made deep-chill a light-weight balls, and the world's first monolithic ceramic chemical packing after Xiangdong Qu's industrial ceramics industry development is out of control.

Wu Xiangdong Qu Technology, the Secretary-food-fan told reporters CCIN, Xiangdong Qu existing ceramic enterprise 318, the annual production capacity of 4.2 million tons, annual sales revenue reached 16.48 billion yuan, industrial ceramic products account for more than 70% market share of . To this end, China Ceramic Industry Association on January 10 this year, the "Ceramics Capital of China's industries," the title granted to eastern Hunan.

According to CCIN learned, eastern Hunan's industrial ceramic products, chemical and ceramics account for more than 98%. Chemical ceramic is mainly used for chemical equipment in the acid and alkali corrosion, high temperature resistance, organic solvents, wear-resistant parts, its unique performance can be greatly enhanced in response to chemical equipment, filtration, decontamination, catalyst protection, the efficiency of key links. The technical level of ceramic products chemicals and performance is directly related to chemical production cost efficiency and energy savings achieved.

More than 70% market share, "Chinese Industrial Ceramics Metropolis" reputation, which is for an industry is naturally proud of. However, CCIN interview with reporters in eastern Hunan found, whether it is government, business, or related professionals, proud of this show also expressed a strong sense of crisis.

"If we continue to develop according to the traditional model, where many enterprises will be eliminated." In the field of industrial ceramics fought for over 20 years of Pingxiang City, Kurumada Industrial Porcelain Factory General Manager Liu Hiroaki concerns, represents one of many companies kinds of sense of crisis.

70% of the market share of joy and worry

There is no doubt that industrial ceramics industry, the rapid development of more than 30 years formed 70% of the market share, to the eastern Hunan's economy has brought great benefits.

Pingxiang Ceramic Industry Base Management Committee, Senior Engineer CAO Nan-ping said that the development of industrial ceramics industry have the necessary raw materials eastern Hunan, and plentiful. For example, on the eastern Hunan clay reserves of 100 million tons, porcelain stone reserves of tens of millions of tons, while kaolin reserves of 40 million tons, quartz stone (powder) reserves have reached more than 2000 million tons. "This is not only rich in resources, but also the use of low cost. Such as clay, the lowest per ton as long as the hundred or so. These resources achievements of the eastern Hunan's industrial ceramics industry, ceramic industry, the industrial development of these resources for thousands of years dormant converted into products and profits. "In Pingxiang City, Xiangdong Qu is a remote area, the agricultural population accounts for about 70%. Industrial ceramics industries in rural areas not only provides a large number of local jobs, but also created a large number of farmer entrepreneurs, management talent and skilled technical workers. CCIN reporters come into contact with the entrepreneurs here, almost all of them peasant origins. It is understood that xiangdong regional industrial ceramics industry employees has reached more than 38,000 people, including more than 2,000 various types of technical staff. The development of ceramic industry in eastern Hunan in 2008 per capita net income of rural residents reached 6,000 yuan, not only higher than that in Jiangxi Province, but also higher than the national average.

"Fostered a large sales force is caused by the development of industrial ceramics industry, one of the outcomes." Pingxiang City, Long Industrial Co., Ltd. General Manager Wang Xiangshan said that the current xiangdong industrial ceramics industry, marketing more than 3,000 personnel, the peak period of nearly 5,000 people. These marketers have proven experience and strong market penetration, the product can be sold to all over the country with the industrial ceramics-related businesses.

High market share also allowed eastern Hunan's industrial ceramics industry has a brand. "Now we go out selling products people have heard that a company xiangdong will even say, 'know this place'." Ceramic membrane filter to produce products and equipment-based Jinhui Environmental Protection Equipment Co., Ltd. Pingxiang City, chairman of San-Der Chyou G such CCIN told reporters.

However, 70% of the market share to bring xiangdong industrial ceramics industry, not just hi.

Wu Liang Fan CCIN told reporters xiangdong existing industrial ceramic products, although there Gu Feng ceramic structured packing, ceramic membrane ultrafiltration machines, different saddle ring porous high-tech patent products, but most of the company's products are still belonging to low middle and low-tech products, competition, lack of stamina. "Enterprise small-scale production of low concentration; corporate division of labor is not clear, there is a serious disorder competition; entrepreneurial talents and enterprises lack of backward production technology, equipment and technology level is low; innovation capability weakened, lack of R & D investment, and backward management. These issues have seriously hampered the healthy development of the industry. "Wu-food fan, said.

CCIN reporter found that the homogenization of the product and the same structure leads to the disorderly competition, cut-throat competition to become a serious concern for all main issues.

"A product of more than a dozen companies do not unusual. This volume is up, the market share is also high, and can be price not go up. Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong's products in some places sell tens of thousands dollars per ton of very common, but we here, the product of only two or three thousand dollars less per ton, really not as good as cabbage price. "Hiroaki Liu said that in ordering the meeting, here, has signed contracts with customers, and there are also local enterprises in order to lower price pull this client. This situation he encountered more than once.

CCIN reporter also found that the current eastern Hunan's industrial ceramics business enterprises between husband and wife, brothers, business, nephew and uncle businesses everywhere, establish a modern enterprise management system, the number of firms is insignificant.

August 18 this year, a total investment of 1.5 billion in Pingxiang City Ceramics R & D Testing Center laid the foundation stone.

Industrial upgrading, changing the gas from the beginning

"For industrial ceramics industry, this situation, the eastern Hunan government departments has actually long been felt, and through macro-control to improve the technological level of industries, improve product mix to do a lot of effort." Grain Wu Fan said that early in beginning of this century, Xiangdong Qu Government's great efforts to force businesses to change the fuel species.

According to him, firing process is the key to industrial ceramics business processes, eastern Hunan regional industrial ceramics production enterprises previously used a traditional inverted coal as fuel furnaces are based on high energy consumption, low efficiency, pollution is serious. From the late 90s last century, the beginning of this century, the Government, through cash compensation, forced removal, etc., all business processes are replaced by firing a gas as fuel. To this end, the local removal of the inverted furnace 278, 201 chimneys, and turned off dozens of small businesses can not be modified. At the same time, the Government has invested 600 million yuan to establish the two matching ceramic enterprises coking enterprises for industrial gas, is now available for industrial use on gas 6 million cubic meters.

"Now, all enterprises are burning liquefied petroleum gas has. This change not only solve the pollution problems, more importantly, is that it can to promote enterprise product upgrades, and improving value-added products." CAO Nan-ping said that liquefied petroleum gas more expensive than coal , the enterprise's costs, and the reproduction of those road products even less competitive. And as Long's, car Tian factory, Jinhui companies producing high-tech products, enterprise development, the faster.

For industrial ceramics by small-scale scattered layout, industrial concentration is not high status, Xiangdong Qu Government from 2006 onwards the planning and construction of Pingxiang City, industrial ceramics industrial base, to create a modern, new industrial ceramics industry development platform. August 9, 2006, the base official start of construction. At present, Pingxiang ceramic industry base 46 companies signed up for admission, of which nine under construction enterprises, 16 enterprises have been put into production.

"Industrial Base serve as a guide and a model, by setting the technical threshold, environmental threshold, the introduction of a high level of business to guide the xiangdong industrial ceramics industry, the level, quantity and quality." CAO Nan-ping said that the current into the base of the enterprise or a product high level, or the advanced mode of production, or the modernization of production processes.

"We have always believed that raising the technological innovation capacity, enhance the technological content of products, change the growth mode is xiangdong industrial ceramics industry, the only way for future development." Grain Wu Fan said that, as xiangdong industrial ceramics industry, the technology department, Xiangdong Qu Technology Council has not only presided over the completion of the "Pingxiang in Jiangxi ceramic industry base of industrial development plan," formulated a series of industrial technology development programs, but also for business matchmaking, promotion of enterprise and universities, research institutes co-operation. "Last year alone, we have visited 17 provinces and cities in 62 institutions of higher learning, organized two technical docking Fair, 26 enterprises reached 18 cooperation projects. So far this year, another 12 Enterprises and institutions reached 16 cooperation projects. "

Wu Liang Fan CCIN told reporters that they are developing a region's industrial ceramics to promote scientific and technological innovation. Under this program, they will establish a development fund to arrange at least five million yuan every year to support the technological innovation of enterprises. At the same time, they will range from 100000-500000 yuan of special subsidies to encourage enterprises to declare the national, provincial-level high-tech enterprise qualification, encourage enterprises to high-tech products into the country related items. They also strive to add their own innovative projects each year more than 5, more than 15 patent applications.

For the first time to sit together over a hundred business March 28, 2008, a group suffering from disorderly competition, low-level competition, the enterprise suffered awakened. They volunteered together, set up a Pingxiang City Industrial Ceramics Chamber of Commerce. Over a hundred members of this Chamber of Commerce, enterprises, accounted for the vast majority of enterprises in eastern Hunan. Several decades of development history, eastern Hunan's industrial ceramics industry for the first time that so many companies sit together. Since then, Bao Tuan development, health development, harmony and win-win concept, replacing their own way to kill each other, low-cost competition, traditional practices, to become xiangdong industrial ceramics business development mindset of a significant transformation.

"I entered the industrial ceramics in this industry relatively late in 2001 began to build factories. At that time invested 3,000 million yuan, annual production capacity of 10 million tons. In eastern Hunan and even the country's industrial ceramics industry, this threshold is considered a high. From entering this industry started, I clearly felt the biggest drawbacks of scientific and technological content of products is too low, a serious lack of talent. It can be said for so many years I have been working to promote eastern Hunan's industrial ceramics industry to change this situation. "Pingxiang Industrial Ceramics Chamber of Commerce chairman, Long, chairman of the Corporation Law, said sending and receiving.

CCIN he told reporters, in addition to its own business interest and commitment to technology innovation is, they're xiangdong base construction ceramics industry R & D Testing Center industrial ceramics. The total investment of 1.5 billion yuan, a project investment of 6,000 million in R & D Center has laid the foundation stone on August 18. "This is not just Long, but the whole eastern Hunan industrial ceramics production enterprise R & D center. My aim is to through new product development, new technology and new process development, promote the transformation of eastern Hunan industrial ceramics industry, and upgrading of replacement. "Luo said sending and receiving.

Entered the industrial ceramics industrial base to become decentralized operation of many enterprises to focus on an important way to transition. At present, some competitive products, there is a certain scale enterprises, such as Straw-headed, Long Jin ceramic packing Co., Ltd., East Bridge porcelain factory in the industrial base and so has been established or are building new plant and production lines.

Away from general-purpose road products, research and development and production of patented high-tech products for many companies to pursue the transformation of fashion products.

"We have in recent years developed a variety of applied chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical fields of higher value-added proprietary chemical filler. For example, Gu Feng ceramic structured packing, streamlined ceramics structured packing and so on. With the traditional filler compared to these products enable users to reduce the cost of the project cost will be distillation efficiency increased by 30% ~ 50%.

"Liu Hiroaki that these products have a high technological content, are currently only they can produce, so are not afraid of competition.

At present, such as cars Tian plant through the production of patented products like the transformation of enterprises as well. Jinhui companies such as the main applied fertilizer, petrochemical, bio-pharmaceuticals and other areas of silicon carbide - silicon oxide ceramic membrane filter tubes and devices, the East Bridge porcelain factory is main attack hydroxy-Fe-coated filter, Dragon Capital Corporation to use "to roll Stick waste as raw material, alumina balls "hit the market, the company's market Huangguan weapon is a reactive alumina ball.

At the end of CCIN's interview, Jinhui the company's silicon carbide - silicon oxide ceramic membrane ultrafiltration ceramic membrane filter tubes and machines to apply the efforts of the National Innovation Fund, has reached the final push.
