In the 1860s, the first industrial revolution opened the era of replacing manual labor with machines. However, as early as the beginning of the 15th century, mature third-party testing organizations had emerged and become their own businesses in order to ensure product quality Behavior.But in China, the third-party testing since the reform and opening up gradually began to develop.In 1989, "China Appoints the Republic of China Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law" promulgated to determine the legitimacy of a variety of test subjects, but also marks China Third-party testing career start.
For the third-party testing industry chain, the upstream is mainly for testing equipment, testing reagents and other industries; the downstream industry chain is mainly for the terminal of industrial products and consumer products manufacturers. The test report is used by the government, consumers or manufacturers Downstream manufacturers.
Global third-party testing industry
Before the Industrial Revolution, the third-party testing industry has gradually matured.After the industrial revolution in the eighteenth century, the third-party testing industry as an independent industry has entered a phase of rapid development.Since the development so far, European countries, Japan, the United States have formed A more standardized inspection and testing market, and formed a group of more prestigious in the international community, the authority of the inspection of non-governmental organizations.
According to the relevant report, the global testing industry market continues to expand, even in the global financial crisis in 2008, the testing industry is still maintaining good growth momentum.Industry Industry Institute predicts that the next few years, the global scale of the testing industry will maintain the growth rate At about 8%, and it is estimated that by 2022, the global testing industry scale will exceed 2 trillion yuan.
Since the 21st century, with the continuous changes in the world economic pattern, the transfer of manufacturing industries has also been gradually accelerated. However, as the testing industry and manufacturing industry are inseparable parts, along with the shift of manufacturing industries, the testing industry is also Gradually moving to developing countries.At present, the global large-scale comprehensive testing agencies basically come from Europe, the United States and Japan and other developed countries and regions, while the receiving area is concentrated in China and other Southeast Asian countries.
At this stage, the general testing can already be undertaken by third-party testing organizations such as foodstuffs, environmental protection and medical care. However, for the relevant functional departments, in addition to promoting the progress and development of the industry, at the same time, the regulatory functions should be strengthened , To ensure the compliance and reliability of third-party testing.
China's third-party testing up the road
In China, third-party testing started late. In 1989, with the promulgation of the "Inspection and Quarantine of Import and Export Commodities of the People's Republic of China," the third-party testing business in our country gradually evolved to formalization. In August 2013, China formally canceled most of its exports The commodity inspection, has taken the first step in the inspection and quarantine system reform.
According to statistics, in recent years, China's third-party testing industry has been steady and rapid growth in 2016 industry growth rate reached 21.68% .As China's third-party testing agencies, a wide range of customer base and a large number of testing to ensure that our country Third party testing organizations in the market share.At the same time, due to the third party testing agencies are quite dependent on the development of other industries and the introduction of relevant policies and regulations, comprehensive testing agencies in the anti-risk ability will be stronger than a single field testing agencies.But Professional laboratories as the basis for testing, equipment and technology updates more quickly.
The source of long-term development of testing organizations is credibility, strengthen internal control, establish multi-level review laboratories, and ensure the quality of testing so as to be in a good position to compete with other testing organizations.
Since the reform and opening up, China's third-party testing agencies more and more rapid development of the market economy more and more popular. However, for the third-party testing industry, state-owned third-party testing organizations accounted for half of the market is not conducive to the development of the entire industry In addition, foreign third-party testing organizations rely on the advantages of technology and worldwide reputation to further suppress the domestic private testing agencies in these two mountains, the domestic third-party private testing agencies struggling.
Third-party testing industry significantly accelerated the development of our country as the largest developing country in the future, there will be a large number of developed countries from Europe and the United States transferred from the third-party testing agencies.But this will further suppress the development of China's private testing agencies For the relevant functional departments, further strengthen the marketization, enhance the competitiveness of private testing institutions in the market, and promote the industrialization.
