[Explanation] Under the circumstance of limited natural gas supply and soaring prices, in order to survive the winter, more and more Europeans are now seeking "solutions" from Chinese manufacturing.

In this context, China's exports of heating equipment such as electric blankets and electric heaters have shown explosive growth.

　　The reporter came to Zhejiang Yiwu International Trade City to find out. Many merchants in the small home appliance area told reporters that the overall foreign trade situation this year is much better than last year, especially in Europe, where a large number of hot handbags, electric blankets, electric heaters and other various Heating equipment has been welcomed by European customers.

　　We are quite busy in foreign trade during this period. We have foreign trade business throughout the year, but we have been very busy since July, and it seems to be very busy now.

(Hot-selling product) This is convenient for plugging in again. The pinhole on the circuit board inside has four heads, and the four heads are explosion-proof. Generally, there are three heads and three pins. We have four pins, so we say (product) to go. Very good.

(How about this export) The export seemed too expensive when it first came out, but after I told them about these functions, I was very satisfied.

(This year) the overall situation is definitely good, (compared with last year) compared with last year, the volume is definitely doubled, doubled up, (export) countries I came out this year several more countries.

　　In terms of heating, there are hot water bottles and something like this kind of rubber, and then for heaters, they may not have received the whole cabinet (orders) before, but now they may be receiving the whole cabinet like this.

Like in the past, there may not be any in Europe, but very few, mainly in the Middle East, and now the European side may also come to ask, the probability of placing an order is relatively high, we used to export a little more to the Middle East, India, and Nepal. This year the volume is also more than before.

(How many containers have been shipped from July and August to now, do you have this approximate figure?) We don't have much statistics on this specific case. Maybe one or two more containers are added every month.

　　[Explanation] According to customs data, from January to August this year, Yiwu City exported thermal products, including air conditioners, heat pumps, water heaters, electric blankets, etc., totaling 190 million yuan (RMB), a year-on-year increase of 41.6%; January-August, Zhejiang Province The export of electric blankets was 6.468 million, a year-on-year increase of 32.1%; among them, 648,000 were exported to the EU, an increase of 114.6%.

As the temperature drops, merchants also estimate that this year's orders will be 1-2 months longer than in previous years, and a large number of orders have caused them to work overtime to stock up, and it is estimated that they will be busy this year.

　　It may be relative to these, or it is like these, those in Israel, and European countries, but there are more this year, their demand is a little higher, and then the amount of purchases are relatively large orders.

(Goods) are still being shipped one after another. Like in our factory, in fact, they are all working overtime, and they are also rushing goods on the assembly line.

In previous years, in fact, it was almost all out until November (last order). This year, I may feel that I have to go on together, because in February and March (southern hemisphere) actually have to go together, I guess It will be busy this year.

　　[Explanation] During the interview, many merchants said that their supply factory was in Cixi, Ningbo, and the reporter went to Cixi to learn about the production situation.

Cixi City is one of China's heater production bases, and its export volume accounts for 30% of the country's total.

In previous years, the peak production season for exported heaters ended around mid-September.

Affected by the international situation, energy crisis and other factors this year, the demand for various heaters in Europe has continued to increase, and many importers have temporarily placed additional orders, which has brought a round of "replenishing orders".

　　(This year) From January to August, Cixi heaters exported 3.35 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.3%, of which 1.53 billion yuan was exported to the EU, a year-on-year increase of 55.2%. Compared with the same period in previous years, the sales season of heaters exported to the EU is expected to be extended by one month. about.
