China National Grid understands that Beijing Raccoon Technology Co., Ltd. was established in March 2017, and its main business is shared laundry service. Mr. Hou Bo, founder and CEO of Mr. Qiong, was the general manager of the product technology center of Youxin Group. Baidu, where to go, Ctrip and other companies.
Mr. Raccoon wants to break the health problem with 'one person, one bucket'
Thanks to the Internet of Things technology and the sharing economy, the shared washing machine that has been born out of the coin-operated public washing machine has greatly improved its experience. It has been widely welcomed by the students, workers, apartment tenants and other mobile groups. It has also attracted many entrepreneurs and home appliances. The entry of the business.
Faced with broad market demand, Haier, Midea, Skyworth, TCL and other home appliance companies have already entered the frontier of shared laundry business through the original commercial washing machine business or incubating entrepreneurial team. For example, Haier Group's 'Mr. Beaver', the United States The group's 'Meimei Washing', Skyworth Group's 'light passenger shared laundry', TCL Group is very home.
Although the experience of shared washing machines has increased dramatically, the health problems caused by the public washing machines themselves have restricted the growth of the shared laundry market. Some college students say that in the school public washing machines, some people wash their shoes and wash their clothes. This mixed laundry method is very unsanitary. In some high-end apartments, health problems are also a major pain point for white-collar workers.
At present, the mainstream solution in the market is to add self-cleaning and sterilizing functions to the washing machine. The operator ensures the cleaning of the washing machine through regular disinfection and cleaning. Relevant data shows that the cost of regular disinfection and cleaning will account for the shared laundry business. About 15% of the income. And from the consumer's psychological point of view, after disinfection, disinfection is not necessarily clean. And having a washing machine alone is too expensive, so many people have to be between health and huge expenses. Repeated measurement.
In the interview with the media, Mr. Hou Bo, founder and CEO of Mr. Raccoon, said that in response to the above market pains, Mr. Raccoon launched a machine sharing, bucket-only solution, and independently developed core hardware and supporting systems to produce a washing machine. 50-60 washing buckets, the first batch of mass production and equipment laying has now begun.
China National Grid understands that Mr. Raccoon's washing machine adopts the 'barrel-separated' design, and through one-way water flow technology, each washing bucket has a separate laundry space, which realizes the interaction between the washing tub and the body 0, eliminates cross infection, and solves the sharing. Hygienic problems with laundry. Each user only needs to buy or rent a special laundry tub. When the laundry is put in, it can be used normally after simple installation. It is reported that the purchase price and rental price of the washing tub are both 60 yuan.
'One person, one bucket' is not original, enterprise standard operation can not be ignored
For the shared laundry model of 'one person, one bucket', many home appliance industry and consumers have shown in-depth recognition.
Wei Yonggang, the president of Shenzhen Very Home Service Technology Co., Ltd., told China National Grid that the 'one person, one barrel' washing machine can effectively solve the problems of germ breeding, cross infection and other problems in the shared laundry process, and also psychologically give consumers a 'reassuring heart'. The TCL shared laundry business plan will continue to increase the use of 'bucket-in-bucket' washing machines in the shared laundry field, based on the continued use of washing machines equipped with anti-fouling technology and sterilization technology.
In fact, the 'one person, one bucket' washing machine is not the original creation of Mr. Raccoon. As early as March 2017, TCL released the pollution-free 'barrel-bucket' washing machine, 'bulk-free pollution + small bucket-free special' pollution-free technology The solution is to design separate exclusive kegs in the vat of the washing machine, vats during washing, and exclusive washing operation of the barrels, without interfering with each other. Moreover, the kegs are easy to disassemble, and one washing machine solves the exclusive washing of more family members. demand.
Being able to promote the 'one person, one bucket' laundry model to the commercial sector, Mr. Raccoon is a discerning eye. However, this does not obscure the loopholes in its business operations.
Article 67 of the Regulations on Certification and Accreditation of the People's Republic of China stipulates that if the products listed in the catalogue are not certified, are manufactured, sold, imported or used in other business activities, they shall be ordered to make corrections, and shall be 50,000 yuan or more and 200,000 yuan. The following fines, illegal income, confiscation of illegal income.
China's 'Compulsory Product Certification System' is a product conformity assessment system implemented by the government to protect consumers' personal safety and national security, strengthen product quality management, and implement laws and regulations. Mr. Raccoon's product innovation and business model innovation are consumption. And social and economic development have created new value, but its use of washing machines without compulsory certification to participate in business operations, but also damages consumer rights and damage the fairness of enterprise development competition. Only standardized operations in accordance with laws and regulations, Really create value with the core of user needs, enterprises can go higher and farther.
