What is the strength of Foshan LED industry? Which part of LED lighting is the most profitable? At the 3rd Guangdong Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection and New Energy Technology Exhibition “New Energy and Low Carbon Industry Forumâ€, many experts have expressed their opinions on LED industry and low carbon economy.
Strong package but "weak" at both ends
Foshan is a gathering place for the traditional lighting industry, but with the rise of LEDs, Foshan is surging with a wave of LED investment. "In 2000, we opened an industry forum in Xiamen. At that time, there were only 50 representatives of LED companies in the country. Now there is a meeting like this, at least 1,000 people. It is really unprecedented." Foshan Guoxing Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Yu Binhai, deputy general manager of the company, feels that the development of the LED industry is so fast and unstoppable.
But what is the overall strength of Foshan's LED industry? Yu Binhai said very convincingly that Foshan's LED industry is at a disadvantage compared with many foreign and even domestic places. In the upstream, Foshan just introduced a foreign chip maker Xu Rui, the upstream strength is still thin; the downstream LED display, traffic signals, landscape lighting can not be compared with the domestic Zhejiang or even the neighboring Zhongshan.
“The strong link of Foshan LED industry chain is packaging. At present, there are 10 large packaging companies in Foshan, with an annual output of 6 billion pieces per year.†Yu Binhai said that Foshan’s own lighting fixtures have accumulated for many years. One of the advantages. Therefore, he suggested that the Foshan Municipal Government should still vigorously introduce upstream chip manufacturing enterprises and strengthen the integration of resources in the entire industry, so that the LED industry can really become stronger and stronger in Foshan.
400,000 to dig a technical talent
In addition to strengthening the entire industrial chain, Foshan's LED industry needs to develop, and it is necessary to work hard on talent cultivation, layout, and industry-university-research cooperation.
"Although LED is very hot, but the real high-end talents in this industry are very lacking." Luo Xiaobing, a professor at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, said that some companies spare no expense to dig technical talents from Taiwanese companies, with an annual salary of 400,000, but "some talents are only in Taiwan." The factory has been working for a few years and has accumulated some experience. It is really rare to understand and master the core technology of LED."
Although there are many lighting companies in Foshan, they are scattered in the five districts, and there is no industrial agglomeration effect. There are too many small enterprises and the research and development capabilities are weak. "Some business owners are afraid of investment risks. I hope that I will give him mature technology to me when I have a meal. I don't know that mature technology requires the joint research and development of scientific research units and enterprises." Luo Xiaobing said that the current Foshan enterprise production, research and research cooperation still To be strengthened.
Luo Xiaobing does not agree with the idea of ​​making less money and thinning profits in the package or downstream applications. “At present, packaging accounts for nearly 35% of the total cost of LED lamps. The phosphors in the packaging process can also make money, and the application process is also.â€
