The industrial division of labor is becoming more and more detailed
With the more and more extensive use of vinyl flooring, a relatively standardized sales and installation system has been slowly established, with detailed division of labor. Suppliers are very familiar with materials and performance. They are the best construction organizers, and have become one of the most remarkable characteristics of this industry.
Resource integration promoted large-scale production and strengthened industrial concentration
The number of output enterprises of vinyl flooring is large, and the production technology level of each enterprise is different, resulting in different quality of floor products and poor large-scale production capacity. With the improvement of environmental protection index requirements and the diversity and personalized development of consumers’ needs, enterprises with scale effect, advanced technology and strong capital will occupy greater competitive advantages, and finally form large-scale enterprises with brand effect to realize resource integration.
Technology driven R & D and continuous technological innovation
