In the production workshop of Guangdong Shengshi Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd., located in Chendian Town, a fresh "factory wind" is coming. The 4000 square meter workshop is interspersed with potted plants, equipped with LED energy-saving lights, air conditioners, fans and other facilities. The whole plant area is spacious, clean and bright, changing the cold and solemn style of traditional factories to create a beautiful and pleasant working environment.

Zhang Jiaqin, the chairman of the company, told reporters that in addition to working hard on the environment, the company also extended from the end of finished product production to the end of weaving, and built an information-based, intelligent and high-end full chain production system. "At present, our workshop has realized digitalization. Every parking space and every employee has a fixed ID code, and every box and every product has a fixed QR code. Employees can do a good job in a box of goods, scan the ID code with their mobile phones, and the data can be transmitted to the big screen in real time. This not only improves efficiency, but also facilitates management. If all departments cooperate well, the efficiency can be improved by 30% to 40%. The purpose of our digitization is also to achieve quick return of small orders to deal with the future e-commerce market. In the past, as an entity, the turnover period was relatively long. Now, in order to adapt to the e-commerce market, it is necessary to achieve fast return. Workshop reconstruction is very helpful to achieve fast return. " Zhang Jiaqin said.

Shengshi Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. has more than 20 years of production experience. The modern plant is equipped with 13 production lines, nearly 500 employees and an annual production capacity of more than 5 million bra products. Through independent research, development and design, refined material management and efficient service system, Shengshi Intelligent Manufacturing has not only become the core supplier of domestic well-known brands, but also won the favor of international buyers by virtue of the high value-added cooperation mode, and has gained a firm foothold in the high-end market. In addition, the company also explored the collectivization development strategy, providing a demonstration path for Shantou textile industry supply chain optimization.

Different from the intelligent upgrading path of Shengshi Intelligent Manufacturing, Shantou Kuiyuan Kangtai Technology Co., Ltd. has broken new ground in cross-border e-commerce and become a benchmark for flexible supply chain enterprises. Kangtai Technology is mainly engaged in seamless knitted underwear and underpants. It relies on the advanced Italian Santoni electronic automatic knitting machine equipment, cutting-edge design software and professional sewing machines to build a high-quality product system and a quick response system.

Huang Weixin, the general manager of the company, said that the flexible supply chain means that the factory has rapid response capability in all production links. "For example, when a product becomes popular on the platform or market, it not only depends on our factory, but also needs the cooperation of the whole supply chain to control the online time of the product. I think we should develop in the direction of data in the future, so that we can reasonably allocate capacity, avoid inventory waste, and actively respond to market demand." Huang Weixin said.

Kangtai Technology bravely entered the cross-border e-commerce platform, adopted the small order quick reaction mode, accurately matched the diversified and personalized needs of the international market, and promoted to a four-star business on the platform in a short time. Its products not only sell well in European and American countries, but also expand to Guangzhou, Zhejiang, Taiwan and other provinces and cities in China through e-commerce channels. When undertaking ODM and OEM business, we can rely on the efficient supply chain response capability to meet the customized needs of different customers, and achieve the upgrading from traditional production enterprises to cross-border e-commerce driven flexible manufacturing enterprises.

Shantou Hongfaxing Textile Co., Ltd. has embarked on a unique development path of the whole industrial chain. Since its establishment in 2008, the company started from the production of accessories, and gradually extended the production line to garment production after 10 years. The 16000 square meter standardized production workshop of the company is equipped with adhesive bonded sewing underpants, seamless, girls' underwear production facilities, and also supporting the e-commerce sector to build a complete production and sales system. Zhang Kaitao, the general manager of the company, said that the company has constantly updated its equipment, which is now basically semi-automatic or automatic equipment. The domestic equipment is basically updated once a year, which is quite different from the situation that the imported equipment was not updated for three to five years. "Now the whole factory adopts the electronic work ticket and two-dimensional code eip system for management, scanning the code for warehousing and scanning the code for ex warehouse, and scanning the two-dimensional code for registration on the process line. The management mode is similar to that of a supermarket," said Zhang Kaitao.

With its own high-quality accessories, Hongfaxing has created "Hongfaxing" underwear accessories brand, as well as several well-known underwear brands such as "Lovell" and "Fimina". With a strong brand matrix and strong enterprise strength, it has successfully joined the ranks of many well-known brand cooperation suppliers, and completed the transformation from auxiliary material suppliers to comprehensive suppliers of the whole underwear industry chain. At the upstream of the industrial chain, Guangdong Chuangxin Fine Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., a leading enterprise in the printing and dyeing field, also showed confidence and drive to become bigger and stronger. The company has invested about 500 million yuan to build a new plant in the textile printing and dyeing environmental protection comprehensive treatment center in Chaonan District, and carried out the intelligent production project of new high-end energy-saving and environmental protection functional additives and new materials. At present, it has entered the stage of equipment installation and process pipeline installation, and is expected to be put into production in the second half of this year. Zhong Xiaoyang, the general manager of the company, said: "There will be a lot of automation equipment in the workshop. The warehouse will be a full-automatic three-dimensional warehouse, and a new 2-floor large laboratory of about 3000 square meters will be built. Many new testing and research equipment will be introduced to improve the research and development strength. We have also improved the overall dormitory environment, hoping to attract more outstanding talents."

The project covers an area of 75 mu, with a construction area of more than 80000 square meters, and the first phase capacity of 80000 tons. As a high-end environmental protection textile new material project, after being put into production, the company's self-developed series of textile chemicals will provide convenience and cost saving for the printing and dyeing enterprises in the park. Zhong Xiaoyang said: "Energy conservation and emission reduction is an eternal theme. Our development of new products will help the printing and dyeing plants in Chaoshan to save energy and emissions. In the future, there will be more and more demand for functional products such as UV resistant, antibacterial, non radiant and waterproof products. We are also committed to reducing costs, serving the industry, improving the R&D level of the entire industry and enhancing the competitiveness of the industry through research and development to replace some imported products.
