The general problem in the domestic lighting market

A few years ago, the development of LED became faster and higher. But now the actual situation, the LED market has become chaotic, uneven quality. With the development of LED lighting industry in recent years, under the national macro-control, we have continued to support policies to promote new energy industries and promote the rapid development and penetration of LED lighting industry.

The following Xiaobian summarizes some common problems in the LED lighting industry:

Local protectionism in supporting policies

Some local governments have adopted policies to nurture local LED lighting companies, giving priority to local municipal landscape lighting and traffic lighting. This has led LED lighting downstream companies to focus their efforts on participating in bidding for government projects. In addition, the domestic LED lighting standards have not yet been formulated, there are differences in the application of standards across the country, resulting in companies across the region to open up the market encountered great resistance, but also limits the overall development of the LED lighting industry.

Lack of brand awareness

LED companies have a large number of companies, and they have mixed products. Products have different levels and there are no independent brands. As a result, some patents have been misappropriated and infringements have occurred frequently.

Civil function needs urgent policy support

Because the price of LED lighting is more expensive than that of traditional sodium lamps, one-time investment is relatively large, which makes local governments not bold enough to invest, which has led to the speed of LED lighting in the country lagging far behind that of Western countries. Currently lighting associations of all provinces and cities are responding to government policies, such as the Shanghai Lighting Association, the Guangzhou Lighting Association, and so on. Lamps of various provinces and cities are selling hot spots, such as Shanghai Lighting City, Zhongshan Lighting City and so on. At the same time, the vast majority of China's current LED lighting is still used in public facilities, and its daily functions need to be supported by relevant policies.

Numerous bottlenecks make the development of the LED industry still constrained, and cannot be as popular as energy-saving lamps. However, it is to be commended that more and more LED companies have focused on the market in the past few years, looking for channels suitable for their products, focusing on the differentiated advantages of market competition, gradually strengthening the promotion and cultivation of their own brands, and paying attention to the overall environment of the region. Regulate market competition order.

Technical and equipment bottlenecks

In the LED substrate material technology and epitaxial wafer production equipment, the domestic LED lighting industry has obvious bottlenecks. The independent innovation and patents in the LED field of Chinese enterprises are mainly concentrated in the encapsulation phase. In the most critical aspects of white light, high-power LED lamp thermal balance issues, and lasting high-efficiency phosphors, technology patents have been used by enterprises in Europe, the United States, Japan, and other countries. monopoly. The brightness, luminous efficiency, anti-static capability, anti-leakage capability and quality control level of domestic LED lighting fixtures still have a large gap compared with international products.

Lack of product pricing

Domestic LED companies are small in scale and industrial resources are scattered. Core chips, especially high-power LED chips, mainly rely on imports from abroad. Individual small and medium-sized companies can only import expensive chips from abroad, resulting in a situation of low bargaining power, which keeps the cost high.
