LED export faces the challenge of the standard

In recent years, the United States, Japan, the European Union and other developed economie formulate some relevant standards for LED products, such as security, performance, energy efficiency and so on,which is mainly used to regulate the LED market.On September 1, the latest requirements of LED energy efficiency will be formally implemented in Europe.Then, LED lighting products export to Europe must conform to the requirements of the new LED energy efficiency standards.

It is understood that the new rules will be implemented in three phases: the first stage of the start-up time is on September 1, 2014, the second phase is on September 1, 2015, the third stage is on September 1, 2016.

The EU is the place where has the highest requirements for LED products.If LED products come into the EU market,it must meet the safety requirements of the low voltage directive and electromagnetic compatibility requirements,restricting use certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) and scrapping instruction to electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and the ecological environment protection and energy dissipation products design instruction (ErP) in the energy efficiency requirements.In addition, the LED products shall conform to the relevant laws and regulations which was stipulated by the conformity assessment procedures.Only in this way, can they be CE mark and smoothly into the EU LED market.

In the face of new LED product challenges, inspection and quarantine departments remind LED suppliers and wholesalers that,first, LED suppliers should actively change LED design ideas, improve the energy efficiency indexes and ecological design LED product;Second, LED supplier should establish active consciousness on quality management, the LED material must be best, production workshop of LED products should be safety ,and checking LED product must be strict;In aspact of LED product development, LED sippliers should pay attention to the design requirements of energy efficiency, ensuring that LED products comply with the requirements of the ERP directive;Finally, testing LED product must complete the conformity so as to adapt to the changing of the allowable value of energy efficiency and test program requirements.I think through the continuous improvement of LED product performance,China LED suppliers must win the initiative of our country LED products in the international LED market.
