This year, the commissioning of the air-conditioning plant has made Korean Electric one of the few brands in the country that can independently manufacture and sell research and development products on air-conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, freezers and other white goods.

"Shen Kaifeng said:" In 2017, the company's operating conditions are characterized by a serious polarization of several products, which are affected by raw material prices As a result of the wide-ranging growth and long-standing price war in the industry, the overall refrigerator sales have only increased by 5%. "In fact, there are not many brands in the domestic market that have achieved sales growth in refrigerator products in the past year.
In recent years, the refrigerator industry is particularly affected by the rising raw materials, and in more than a year, the price of black and white materials for foaming has risen by more than 3 times. Meanwhile, the cost of logistics, packaging, copper and aluminum, etc. Is only increasing.

Even so, the sales volume of Korean refrigerator in 2017 is also close to 3 million units .

Sales of air-conditioners are also in a turbulent pace. In 2015, Hanwha entered the air-conditioner market with OEMs and ODMs. Now it seems that the options at that time were forward-looking. Both the 2016 and 2017 high-season phases A blowout occurred, which also led to the explosive growth of Korean electric air conditioner.However, due to the lack of autonomous production capacity at that time, Korea Electricity lost a huge share of demand.
In addition, Hanwha washing machine sales growth this year is also particularly rapid, only fully automated product sales exceeded the scale of 120 million units. 'From 2018, we will pull from the previous refrigerator, washing machines, air-conditioning impulse, the air-conditioned pull , Washing machines and refrigerators impulse, 'Shen Kai Feng's remark, revealed the high expectations of domestic and international air conditioner market.

On the contrary, no matter whether it is a washing machine or an air conditioner, the formation of autonomous production capacity appears later, but this does not hinder the development of production capacity. Hanwha in these products can come to the forefront of similar brands.Perhaps this is the ability of South Korea.
