This summer is a relatively special summer for manufacturers in Guangdong, China. Although the weather is hot, it does feel like a long winter for our manufacturers. Why do you say that? First of all, the new coronavirus outbreak in Guangdong this summer has led to skyrocketing shipping costs and large-scale blockages in the port, so that the shipping cycle has been severely prolonged. The other is the hot weather this summer in Guangdong, China, and there is too little rain. As China`s electric power mainly uses hydroelectric power, the power supply is seriously insufficient. Especially for our Precision Casting, Metal Forging, die-casting, and CNC Machining manufacturers, their own electricity consumption is large. Guangdong's manufacturing industry is very rich, and there are so many manufacturers, which leads to the lack of overall power supply. In the end, the only way to ensure power supply is to limit the power supply. Sometimes there is a power outage for 2 days a week, and sometimes there is a power outage one day a week, which eventually leads to a longer production cycle. Especially precision castings, Forging Parts and die-casting products, because these products need to develop molds to produce, resulting in a serious delay in production time. The above two things are simply worse for our manufacturing companies.
For teh above-mentioned lack of power supply in the summer, we can only arrange workers to compensatory leave to ensure production; for the emergence of a covid-19 epidemic in Guangdong and the recurrence of epidemics around the world, we pray and hope that the global covid-19 epidemic will end an soon as possible and restore peace to the world.
