In the market demand is difficult to obtain sufficient incremental space situation, the product structure in the operation of the quality of the upward move to become the unanimous choice of ice-washing enterprises.Even in the production and development environment is superior air-conditioning industry, the enterprise structure upgrade, efficiency The driving force of the demand is also higher and higher.From the existing data and the evolution of the market pattern, the ice-washing market in 2011 to consolidate the bottom, high air-conditioning market consolidation will be the main tone in the field of white goods.
