A few days ago, Jinhua held the Thermos Cup Industry Development Conference and the Jinhua Thermos Cup Industry Alliance inauguration. It implemented the decision and deployment of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government on accelerating the cultivation of key sub-sectors in the manufacturing industry, and promoted the high-quality development of the insulated thermos bottle industry.

Jinhua is one of the world's largest production bases of thermos vacuum insulated bottle, and its export volume accounts for more than 80% of the country's total. Yongkang is the City of Cups in China, with 6 of the top ten domestic insulated flask bottle brands. The Jinhua Quality Association Vacuum Mug Industry Alliance was jointly initiated and established by the city's vacuum flask enterprises and institutions that are committed to enhancing the competitiveness of the Jinhua vacuum flask industry in the domestic and foreign markets. The alliance will give full play to the leading role of leading enterprises, promoting the improvement of industrial scale and quality, optimizing industrial structure, expanding brand influence, and enhancing industrial innovation capabilities significantly.

Jinhua vacuum insulated flask industry has five major advantages, including industrial scale, brand cluster, industry leader, complete industrial chain, and supporting services. It is necessary to clarify goals, implement precise policies, and strive to create a model of high-quality industrial development. Besides, it is necessary to strengthen guarantees, optimize services, and strive to create a good environment for industrial development. The first is to strengthen organizational guarantees, establish a city and county two-level stainless-steel vacuum flask industry development leading group, and formulate an evaluation index system, and earnestly implement the responsibilities of key regions and related departments. The second is to strengthen the linkage between cities and counties. The cities, counties and departments must strengthen linkage and cooperation, and work together to advance the implementation of the work. Yongkang, Wuyi and other key cultivating counties, cities and districts should build regional benchmarking demonstrations for the cultivation of the vacuum flask water bottle industry. The third is to strengthen policy guidance and provide special support in major project recruitment, key technology research and development services, corporate body cultivation, public service support, and industrial park construction. The fourth is to optimize the development environment and reform the municipal government’s corporate services.

At the meeting, relevant persons in charge of the Jinhua Vacuum Cup Industry Alliance Joint Meeting and other relevant persons made speeches. The conference also invited relevant experts from the Cup and Pot Branch of the China Japanese Miscellaneous Association to give an introduction on the construction of the standard system and made  a special report on the research and development of vacuum steel bottle products. In order to maintain the sustainable and healthy development of the industry, create a fair and orderly competitive environment, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, the Jinhua Thermos Cup Industry Alliance Self-Discipline Convention was formulated. It encourages and supports legal, fair, and orderly industry competition, and opposes the use of improper means to compete within the industry.

The Jinhua Municipal Government regarded the stainless thermos flask industry as one of the city’s eight key cultivation sub-industries. At the same time, it also formulated a three-year cultivation plan for the stainless-steel vacuum jug industry, and introduced targeted incentive and support policies for industry cultivation to ensure that the city’s stainless vacuum flask industry achieved quality and quantitative leapfrog development.
