"We have specially customized two environmentally-friendly art carpets with different themes, namely'Blue Peony' and'Misty Rain Jiangnan'. We hope that this Expo will integrate my country's beautiful Jiangnan scenery into the product design and present it to more foreign guests."
A few days ago, Yan Hongjun, the general manager of Ningbo Bohan Crafts Co., Ltd., the designated carpet supplier for the China Pavilion at the 2020 Dubai World Expo, proudly explained the design concept of environmentally friendly art carpets.
Ningbo Smart Manufacturing Stunning China Pavilion
In June of this year, Ningbo Bohan Arts & Crafts, with its stunning Chinese cultural theme design and green and low-carbon environmental protection concept, passed through layers of selection and became the designated carpet supplier for the China Pavilion at the Dubai World Expo in one fell swoop.
Ningbo Bohan Arts & Crafts Co., Ltd., located in the new district, is one of the domestic floor mat product enterprises integrating R&D, design, production and sales. Its products include outdoor art mats, indoor art mats, multifunctional anti-fatigue mats, and carpets. , Yoga mats, etc., with tens of thousands of designs, and has now developed into a global provider of home functional and craftsmanship integrated solutions. The products are exported to the United States, Europe, Japan and other places, and have entered many internationally renowned chain companies Super, with an average annual output value of tens of millions of dollars.
Behind the spotlight, there are several days and nights of precipitation. The year 2002 was the "sprouting year" of Bohan. Yan Weijun believes that people's pursuit of a healthy, environmentally friendly, low-carbon and beautiful life will be the new blue ocean of the future industry, so he "stubbornly" embarked on the long road of home art mat industry.
In those years, frequent visits to the United States, Europe and other places were Yan Hongjun's work routine. "Soaking" again and again in the major supermarkets in California, using a large suitcase full of samples, taking them back to the country and sending them to the research institute, and studying the more advanced floor mat materials and technology in the world at that time. .
With the beautiful vision of creating "the light of domestic products" and the persistent pursuit of industry ideals, Yan Hongjun has survived the five-year research and development cycle. During this period, the company has received no large orders. In her words, it means "a harvest of five years. lonely". It is in this five years of continuous testing, continuous failure, Bo Han ushered flowers blossoming moment of release.
In 2007, Bohan officially settled in Hangzhou Bay New District, Ningbo. It built a factory building of more than 20,000 square meters at No. 19 Puyuan Road, set up multiple workshop production lines, and quickly sold its products to more than ten Fortune 500 companies. Enterprises have established trade cooperation.
The reason for the rapid development is attributable to the massive investment and accumulation that Bohan has made in the construction of intellectual property rights such as technology research and development, patents, and design. In the eyes of everyone, lack of technical content has always been a common phenomenon in the floor mat industry, but Bohan’s floor mat products are full of "black technology".
As a household product that integrates functionality and artistry, Bohan's floor mat products can adapt to various application scenarios and functional requirements. The characteristics of wear resistance, non-slip, waterproof, oil resistance, and easy cleaning have now become the standard of Bohan products. On this basis, it has also developed an ergonomic digital health mat series with special functions such as anti-fatigue and protection of waist and leg joints, which can help white-collar workers, teachers, doctors, housewives and other people who need to stand for a long time to reduce fatigue, Reduce damage.
In addition, Bohan has incorporated the concepts of low-carbon health and green environmental protection into product manufacturing early on. The Expo environmentally friendly art carpet is made of plant fibers. This green and environmentally friendly material is deeply loved by domestic and foreign fashion buyers and environmentally friendly consumers. On the other hand, Bohan's outdoor art mat series products use raw materials reprocessed from waste tires at the bottom, which realizes the recycling of rubber resources.
China is a country with a large demand for rubber, but it lacks natural rubber resources and relies heavily on imports. Rubber tire recycling not only saves a lot of resources for the country, reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions, but also reduces the "black garbage" pollution caused by waste tires. . It is this combination of function and art, environmental protection and technology, and the unremitting spirit of innovation that promote the development of Bohan's brand. In 2015, Bohan established its own brand Puyuan Home Furnishing, focusing on the manufacturing of green, healthy and fashionable high-end home furnishing products.
Up to now, Bohan has obtained more than 60 intellectual property rights, including 6 national invention patents, 15 utility model patents, and 42 design patents. At the same time, there are still a number of patent projects under application and approval.
