Tang Zengrong: The National Standard Of Printing Industry Should Be Published As Soon As Possible.

The printing industry has entered a new stage of "green development". The state has clearly put forward the requirement of cleaner production. "In 2010, all the printing and dyeing enterprises in China must adopt environmental protection raw materials." for printing enterprises, the standard will be the basis of environmental protection production. "The national standard of printing industry should be introduced as soon as possible," said Tang Zengrong, a senior engineer of Shanghai printing and dyeing technology research institute and an expert of China Textile Economic information network.

"Printing is the value-added link of textiles".

Reporter: what role does stamp play in the textile and apparel industry chain?

Tang Zengrong: clothing printing is on the top of the fabric, using dye or pigment to print some patterns with certain color fastness.

In recent years, non-woven fabric printing also belongs to garment printing.

Printing belongs to the post processing part of textiles. If the textile is not dyed and printed, the price will not go up. If someone else does not want it, it must be printed only. This is the link to increase the added value of textiles.

Before printing, it was a few dollars, and after printing and dyeing, it could be sold to tens or even hundreds of pieces.

Printing is not only a technology but also an art. Why is it an art? It must be well designed, and people will buy your clothes if they look good, but they won't see whether your material is good or not.

Reporter: what is the difference between printing and dyeing?

Tang Zengrong: dyeing is uniform and uneven. Printing is to see if it prints out.

Reporter: what are the important trends of domestic printing?

Tang Zengrong: due to the pursuit of individuation in modern textile and garment industry, printing industry is now showing a trend of multi variety and small batch. The convenient, environmentally friendly and flexible printing methods are well received by the market.

Now the textile and garment industry advocates "low carbon development". To achieve the goal of low carbon, the printing process is the key.

The development of environment-friendly printing materials has to rely on the adaptation of relevant foreign laws and regulations.

The industry should increase the technology level of printing products, on the one hand, increase the added value, and on the other hand, enhance the market competitiveness.

"Printing process is different, the quality standard is also different".

Reporter: would you like to talk about the quality of textile printing?

Tang Zengrong: textile printing is divided into two parts, one is cloth printing, the other is garment printing.

Knitted garments are usually printed on clothing, woven fabrics are cloth prints, two printing processes are completely different, and even two different industries, so the quality of printing on a piece of clothing has appeared, first of all, we need to make sure it is woven or knitted.

Different fibers have different equipment, processes and methods, which are very complicated.

It takes a look to analyze, but not to analyze.

In addition, the printing paste is the most important raw material of the garment printing business, and it directly determines the quality of the printing product.

Reporter: digital printing has great advantages.

It can greatly shorten the original process route, speed up the order, greatly reduce the cost of proofing, and make the product break the restrictions of traditional production color and flower back length, so that the printing effect of high-grade printing can be achieved.

In 2009, the market share of digital printing textiles was 114 million 600 thousand euros.

In the next five years, the global market share of digital printing textiles will reach 1 billion euros.

What do you think of the future of digital printing?

Tang Zengrong: now, digital printing technology has been quite mature. Many areas that originally belong to screen printing have been brought by digital printing, and many flat-panel machines and professional printing machines have appeared on the market.

Flat screen and rotary screen printing are not very suitable for market demand at present, because they all require plate making, which takes a lot of time and

What we need to do now is to enrich the color of printing and change the monotony of varieties. This will be an important issue facing China's printing industry.

With variety and variety, we can adapt to the market more.

Printing is no longer a exclusive thing for women. It also shows prominently in men's wear.

Reporter: if we enhance the design and color design ability of domestic enterprises?

Tang Zengrong: to enhance the design of China's printing industry

Reporter: we understand that you strongly advocate that the printing industry should formulate national standards as soon as possible. Why should we publish the national standard? Where is this urgency?

Tang Zengrong: the clothing printing industry is a new industry. In the past, because of the low level of culture and the relatively backward technology level, it has not been valued.

Now, we begin to attach importance to it, so there was no standard in our clothing printing industry before.

Printing did not belong to the category of textiles before. It did not belong to the original textile department, but to the Ministry of light industry.

Therefore, the textile industry's research on it is relatively small. It is only just beginning now, so we are now putting forward this standard.

It should be said that now is the time to make this standard, because the export of our country's textile and clothing every year is very huge. It used to be cloth export, and now it is basically clothing export.

Reporter: the entry threshold of printing industry is low, most of which are small enterprises, medium-sized enterprises are second, and large ones are few.

What do you think of the status quo of the printing industry?

Tang Zengrong: in the past twenty years, China's garment printing industry has gone through the manual processing from the family workshop format to the automatic industrial production process.

As time goes on, those traditional workshops will vanish, because intensive production is now intensive, so long as such production can use the market demand, and then continue to develop.

Nowadays, one of the most unfavorable characteristics of the printing industry is "emphasizing the outside and the inside". It attaches great importance to the foreign market, relies heavily on foreign trade, and has little interest in the domestic market.

Reporter: what do you think of the development prospect of printing industry?

Tang Zengrong: the printing industry is very active now. There are many private enterprises, especially in Zhejiang. There are many designers. It should be said that this industry is very promising. It has a lot to do with the trend of fashion.

We must grasp the market demand in time and do what the market needs.

With the development of new materials, the printing industry has also developed.

For example, according to the statistics of China's printing and dyeing industry association, from 2000 to 2008, only six years of textile printing and dyeing products, cotton printing fabrics showed an upward trend of nine consecutive years.
