Coexistence of multiple factors leads to imbalance of coating and coating development system

Coating integration refers to the integration of paint products and coating lines. At present, despite the rapid development of the paint industry in China, the unbalanced development of the integration of paint and coating has gradually emerged, mainly as a relatively lagged coating. There is a saying in the industry called “seven-point construction of a three-point coating”. This sentence illustrates the importance of painting. Only when the coating can be practically applied can it demonstrate its colorful decorative properties, as well as anti-corrosion, anti-fouling, and anti-corrosion. Mold and other protective properties. Professors such as Professor Liu Dengliang, Chairman of the China Coatings Expert Committee, Dr. Wang Jian of COSCO Shipbuilding Coatings (Qingdao) Co., Ltd. and Li Rongjun, Senior Engineer of Heppel (China) Co., Ltd. all believe that coatings and painting must be closely integrated and integrated. It can be seen that the market for coating and coating integration is growing louder and louder. The coating industry also needs to pay attention to the matching and docking of paintings in order to achieve win-win cooperation and cooperation between upstream and downstream companies.

The coexistence of many factors caused the imbalance between coating and coating development systems. Although China's coating industry started late but developed rapidly, in the tide of low-carbon, environmentally-friendly economic development, the coating industry is developing toward water-based, and various innovative scientific products have been introduced. However, the existence of numerous factors has led to inconsistencies in the development of coatings and coating. The coating technology and level lag behind the development of coatings. This has greatly constrained the development of the coating industry. These factors mainly include the following aspects:

First of all, there is a lack of good communication and connection between coating manufacturers and downstream companies. In the past, paint manufacturers only unilaterally paid attention to the technical research and development of paint products to improve the performance of paint products, but they neglected their actual application effects. They did not understand the coating technology of paint products, let alone professional research. Downstream coating companies only pay attention to the improvement of coating technology, and they do not fully grasp the performance of coating products, resulting in the failure of coatings to be fully utilized in practical applications.

Second, the coating equipment and technology behind have limited the application and development of paint products. Technology has always been the soft underbelly of the development of China's paint industry, and it is also a bottleneck for downstream coatings industry development. Paint innovation products are continuously updated, but if manufacturers and users lack of communication, it will lead to the lag of the corresponding paint equipment and technology development, coupled with the relatively high cost of paint equipment replacement and R & D, these will lead to paint Faced with the "cold market in the industry," the situation hinders the development of both sides.

Again, the relevant skills of painters are missing. Painters want their own success in construction. When he is faced with something new and uncertain, unsure of insecurity will cause them psychological pressure. Therefore, they prefer to choose the traditional construction method. It caused the problem of "difficulties in construction" of new paints, which ultimately hampered the development of the paint industry.

The integration of paint and coating is an inevitable trend for upstream and downstream companies to become bigger and stronger. The imbalance between coatings and coating will not only limit the full play of coating product performance, but also make it difficult for downstream companies to produce high-quality products. unfavorable. Facts have proved that the integration of paint and coating is an inevitable trend for upstream and downstream companies to become bigger and stronger.

The integration of paint and coating not only allows paint companies to increase their knowledge and understanding of coating processes and equipment, but also promotes the understanding of coating performance by downstream companies, so that painters can “do their job” and paint products “ The material can be used as it can to achieve the perfect combination of paint and coating.

In the situation of rising raw material prices, logistics and increasing costs, the integration of paint and coating will help to effectively control costs and achieve win-win results for both parties: For paint companies, the integration of coating and painting contributes to coatings. Manufacturers timely find problems, improve production techniques, develop timely products that meet market needs, reduce R&D costs and promote resistance. For coatings downstream companies, paint coating integration can reduce the rate of product failure and reduce losses. product quality. In addition, the integration of paint and coating will help enterprises create distinctive, professional and personalized services and enhance their market competitiveness.

Upstream and downstream companies need to work together to promote the integration of paint coating development of paint and coating integration is a systematic project, the need for upstream and downstream enterprises to complete cooperation.

First, paint companies should "bundle" technology and applications. Paint production companies need to use actual applications as the precondition in the product R&D process. They must consider the downstream companies' factors in material selection, construction, environment, or equipment, and bundle product technologies with practical applications, and formulate research and development priorities according to customer needs.

Second, downstream coatings companies need to have good technology and equipment to ensure. Painting equipment is an important factor influencing the integration of paint and coating. Coating is a semi-finished product. Only through painting can it realize its full value. The integration of paint and coating is a long-term development process, and its promotion needs to be gradual. Therefore, at this stage, enterprises that do not need much improvement in painting equipment or are less difficult to improve should become the main promoters to achieve this goal. This part of the company should be based on the guarantee of good technology and equipment, and the coating manufacturer. Together, from point to point, we will gradually advance the development of an integrated coating and coating system.

Again, paints and downstream companies need to work together to create a professional paint team. Paint companies need to understand the product's corresponding construction techniques in order to better train and guide painters; downstream companies must also create a professional and well-qualified construction team to conduct paint knowledge training to help painters understand coatings. The basic performance, improve the basic skills of construction, in order to produce qualified, high-quality products.

The integration of paint and coating is the demand for market development, and it is also a powerful weapon for coating companies to be invincible in the market competition, which is of great significance to the development of the entire coating industry.
