Green building materials usher in new opportunities for the new year

Immediately after the Spring Festival, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the “Working Points for the Transformation and Development of Raw Materials Industry in 2015”. According to the key points of the work, in the green building materials industry, the organization shall do a good job in organizing the implementation of the general rules for the evaluation of green building products and the implementation of the rules and regulations for the implementation of evaluation marks, build a public service platform for green building materials, release information on green building materials, and prepare for the development of green building materials industry. Alliance, improve the downstream application industry chain, and promote the application of polymer materials in rail transportation and high-end equipment.

To promote the development of green building materials from the national level is not only a major test for the building materials industry, but also a rare opportunity. It can be foreseen that green building materials will become a huge market in the future, and foresighted building materials companies that have embarked on the road to green development earlier will seize the opportunity under this major government decision.

Corporate "green" vision

In fact, many cities are currently facing hazy weather and deteriorating environmental conditions, which have caused the traditional building materials industry to encounter development bottlenecks. In the future, where will the building materials industry go? Take the road of environmental protection and energy-saving modern green building materials industry. The development direction of the industry, therefore, many large-scale building materials companies, have been actively transforming, focusing on green building materials.

At the 10th International Conference on Green Building and Building Energy Conservation and New Technology and Product Expo, which was recently opened in Beijing, some large-scale building materials companies put forward targeted solutions and displayed and promoted their use of municipal construction waste and industrial waste residue. We have developed successful green building materials products for our main raw materials. Among them, the relevant person in charge of Zhong Cheng Jian Heng Yuan New Building Material Co., Ltd. introduced that through cooperation with a number of research institutions, the company has successfully developed concrete composite (EPS) thermal insulation blocks based on urban construction waste and industrial waste residue as the main raw materials. This product has applied for 13 patents. It uses industrial waste slag such as fly ash, heavy slag or granulated blast furnace slag as the main raw material, supplemented with a small amount of cementitious materials, and is manufactured using a full set of internationally advanced concrete block manufacturing equipment technologies. , fire prevention, and economic adaptability are excellent characteristics, and the performance indicators such as seepage prevention, sound insulation, and strength have all been significantly improved. In order to promote the industrialization of this new type of green building materials, Zhong Cheng Jian Heng Yuan New Building Materials Co., Ltd. will invest 2 billion yuan in the first project, and build an EPS thermal insulation block with an annual output of 4 million cubic meters in Anshun, Guizhou. It is expected that after the implementation of the project completed at the end of 2014, more than 3 million tons of urban construction waste and industrial waste residue will be consumed annually, and annual reductions in CO2 and CO2 emissions will be 0.5 million tons and 820,000 tons, respectively.

The key to seizing the "green" market

Not only Hengyuan building materials, many powerful building materials companies are exploring the path of green transformation. It is estimated that by the end of 2014, the market share of China's green building materials will reach 94%. In today's comprehensive realization of environmental protection in the building materials market, the realization of environmental protection of its own products has become the key for enterprises to seize market share and face the new situation. Many building materials companies started to get involved in green building materials. Among them, Xinrui Technology is one of the representative enterprises. It is reported that Xinrui Technology has ceased to operate the traditional building materials business for 15 years. The company has undergone a comprehensive transformation. In 2013, it basically completed the construction of a new type of recycled environmental protection plate. Work, this year, the company's official operation of environmental protection building materials fully put into production.

In addition, a number of green building materials industry bases are also under construction. Not long ago, at the signing ceremony of the Tianjin Expo and the PECC Expo, the Tianjin Beichen District Government and Yuanda Housing Industry Co., Ltd. formally signed the “Strategic Investment Framework Agreement”, and Yuanda Sumitomo invested 2 billion yuan in the construction of the Beichen District. World-class green building R&D and manufacturing base. The Beichen District Government stated that whether it is the general environment of national policies, the general trend in the development of building technologies, or the large consumer demand for green and environmental protection, it demonstrates an indisputable fact: the traditional coarse, high pollution, high consumption, and low efficiency. Low-quality building production models will be replaced by high-tech, high-efficiency, high-quality industrial manufacturing methods.

The future "green" industry is huge

China is the world’s second-largest consumer of wood, ranking second in the world in terms of consumption of man-made board, pulp, paper and paperboard, and ranking second in the world in log consumption. The limited resources and sustained growth in resource consumption and the need to protect the ecological environment are all plagued by numerous conflicts and crises. Under such circumstances, the industrialization of building materials and environmental protection is the key to realizing “true environmental protection”. Experts analyze that companies can only combine the 'green' and 'renewable' characteristics of their products to be 'real environmental', and companies can use ' "Environmentally Renewable Technology" allows one-time investment to be continuously recycled, thereby saving resources and achieving true green and environmental protection.

According to the reporter's understanding, the new type of green generally has excellent characteristics such as light weight, high strength, heat preservation, energy saving, and no pollution. The use of new building materials will not only greatly improve the function of houses, but also make the interior and exterior of buildings more modern and satisfy people's aesthetic requirements. Relevant statistics show that the country’s total energy consumption for building energy consumption is more than 28%. Of the existing 40 billion square meters of buildings, 99% are high energy-consuming buildings. According to international experience and China's current development forecast for building energy use, by 2020, China's building energy consumption will account for about 35% of the total energy consumption of the entire society, and it will surpass industrial energy to become the first field of energy use. According to experts, R&D and promotion of the new green building materials industry is of great significance in promoting China's economic recycling and building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.
