According to voice of the economy world company, 60% of the child safety seats sold worldwide are "made in China". However, it is worrying that China, as the largest producer of child safety seats, has a utilization rate of only 1% in the market, and even in some large and medium-sized cities, the utilization rate is less than 5%. Parents have different views on whether it is necessary to equip their children with safety seats.
Woman: don't look at other people's houses. Look at your own house. The old man at home said, what's the use of buying this? It's a waste of money. It's OK for adults to hold it. I don't feel tired when the child is so small. I think holding is the safest.
Man: we basically hold the child. The child is very small. You fix him on the top and put him there. He is not very obedient
Woman: I bought it a few months before I was a year old. It's very good and practical
Woman: this must be prepared for children. We are five years old and have been using it all the time
Woman: there are too many road conditions problems. Sometimes when you brake, you directly buckle the child's head. On the highway, you can often see that the old man is sitting in the front row with a child in his arms, or there are children in the back row. He is very lively, just two or three years old. Maybe many parents don't think it's necessary to buy this. It depends on their personal ideas.
Some parents think that it is safest to take a car with their children. Some parents mistakenly believe that older children can sit in the back and fasten their seat belts. However, LV Hengxu, deputy director of simulated collision history of China Automotive Technology Research Center, said that these practices will pose a great threat to children's safety. There is a big gap between the use and use of safety seats.
LV Hengxu: this car impacts at a speed of 50 kilometers, which will produce an acceleration of 30 to 50 g. what's the concept? 30 to 50 times the weight of the object itself. If the child is 10 kg, the inertial force generated is equivalent to 300 kg force to 500 kg force. You think, an adult reported an object of 300 kg and couldn't hold it at all. The adult sits in the front row with the child in his arms, because the child is in front of the adult. When the airbag is deployed, the child will contact the airbag first than adults. At this time, the airbag will expand at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour. It can be imagined how much impact the airbag has on the child. Because you hold the child, the child has a height problem, which is a little lower than adults. It directly impacts the child's head.
In addition to the lack of concept, some parents also admitted that they were worried about the poor quality of domestic brand child safety seats and the high price abroad.
Bai Hongjun, marketing director of the child safety seat division of good children's products Co., Ltd., said in an interview with Tianxia company today that the product price is too low and the quality can not be guaranteed. As for the differences between domestic and foreign brands, don't tangle too much.
Bai Hongjun: the price of a product has something to do with the quality of the product. If the quality is better, the relative cost will be higher and the selling price will be higher, which is normal. As for the difference between imported and domestic products, at present, although China is not the largest consumer country, it is the largest production base of child safety seats. Many foreign products are produced in China and then exported abroad. If it is a product produced by a large brand formal enterprise, there is not much difference in essence. The gap may be in the details of product technology, which others have done more mature. There must be some problems with the quality of excessively cheap products. In terms of the retail price level in the market, I don't think it's acceptable below three or four hundred.
The entry threshold of child safety seat products is not high, and good and evil people are mixed. At the standard level, China has implemented compulsory product certification for child safety seats since September 1, 2014, that is, 3C certification. There is a one-year transition period. If it does not obtain compulsory certification on September 1 this year, it will not be allowed to sell, import or use. Liang Mei, President of China toys and Baby Products Association, said that the original phenomenon of "export quality depends on European standards and domestic quality depends on conscience" in the industry is expected to be changed.
Liang Mei: see if it has 3C logo. If so, it means that the product quality meets the national mandatory standards. On the basis of product safety, consumers choose safety seats suitable for babies and cars according to different functions. This standard refers to the standards of the European Union and the United States and should be close to the international level. It is hoped that the state can legislate to force the use of child safety seats for travel. On the other hand, all parents should realize that the baby's travel safety comes first.
It is understood that since this year, more and more manufacturers of child safety seats have begun to apply for 3C certification. Bai Hongjun, marketing director of the child safety seat division of good children's products Co., Ltd., said that the introduction of compulsory certification is conducive to the healthy development of the industry. At the same time, the industry also needs the joint efforts of automobile manufacturers.
Bai Hongjun: compulsory certification at least increases the operating costs of non formal manufacturers, including the requirements for products. If you fail to meet the requirements, you will be punished by relevant national laws and regulations. I believe the quality of products will be greatly improved. As a vehicle factory, there have been some actions. We know that the products of several major brands after 2012 have professional interfaces for child safety seats, so they can match the child safety seat system.
Bai Hongjun also believes that legislation should be made as soon as possible. At present, Shanghai, Shandong and Shenzhen have issued relevant regulations.
Bai Hongjun: at present, nearly 100 countries in the world should have legislation. Generally speaking, the regulations require children to use safety seats when riding in vehicles. Some are set to the age of 4, some to the age of 7, and the highest to the age of 12. Generally speaking, we believe that children under the age of 4 are more likely to be injured in traffic accidents if they do not have safety seats. In China, such as Shanghai, the law on the protection of minors required children under the age of four to use safety seats in vehicles last year. In Shandong, the highway safety regulations stipulate that children under the age of 4 should use safety seats when riding vehicles running at high-speed kilometers. In January this year, the Shenzhen safety regulations stipulated that children under the age of four must use child safety seats. And there are corresponding punishment provisions.
