Topic: why most products now are made in China? can we trust these products? - page 11. (Read 5437 times)

Does west even want to compete with China in manufacturing? Everybody is virtue signalling about Chinese doing this or that "wrongly", bad I cant see many western snowlakes standing in lines for factory jobs paying five dollars per hour.

Thats why your Iphones, computers and even shoes are so cheap.

Just my two cents. Criticism of China is legitimate, but I dont see the west retaking initiative this decade.

For their industrial development, China has paid ecology. The Western countries wanted, so they built a competitor. Now it is very difficult to change something. Yes, the West has the technology, but the production capacity there is no need many years to repair.

China is developed country in case of  technology .its manufacturing process is also good but their quality is not better than other.the chinies things are perform good performance no doubt but only for some time.

It is not very surprising. The American manufacturers have to deal with all sort of regulations, minimum wage requirements, union agitations, pollution control, employee healthcare, affirmative action.etc. In China they don't have any of this.

To begin with, the goal of any entrepreneurial activity is a high stable profit with minimal costs.

In the conditions of world overproduction of goods, growing huge rates of competition, entrepreneurs are looking for ways to reduce costs. In China, produce the lowest value goods, because in China, the world's cheapest labor.

Economic reforms contributed to the development of production technologies, as well as to improving the quality of products, which allows the Chinese, taking advantage of world experience and advanced technologies, to undertake the production of many world goods, not excluding the brand.

Gradually, step by step, China has turned into a country with a developed infrastructure, which includes factories, factories, enterprises that produce almost ANY goods.

China is the country with the largest number of OEM contractors in the world.

* OEM production is a service that allows any firm to produce goods under its brand that will exactly match its original quality characteristics, design without additional capital investments in production.

For example, such brands as Adidas, Moulinex, Panasonic and many others - enable faceless firms to establish their own business, with minimal costs.
Another of the attractive moments in cooperation with China are the terms of delivery of goods.

Among the weighty pluses in delivery can be identified affordability, the ability to deliver to individuals, not just large companies, as well as container transportation with goods from different categories.

Thus, having considered all the pros and cons of production in China, an ordinary buyer can make a conclusion for himself that he does not care who made his goods - Englishman, German or Chinese.

After all, the control system, the originality of the development, the quality, the engineer and the equipment on which the product was manufactured - remain European, and therefore the quality of the goods can not be worse than in Europe or the United States.

That's why almost everything is done in China!

Not good. Especially the toys from china it contains heavy metals containing excessive level of lead that is bad for the health of the children who would play that toys. I hope more people are aware with this.

It's definitely not a good thing.



This is a direct result of having so many imports not only from China, but a whole range of countries. As we all know, the USA is the biggest importer of goods in the world, and when it's importing it is getting itself into current account defecits and giving the Chinese control over the US economy. If the Chinese decided to dump their US dollars then the whole economy will just crash into pieces because they have so many US dollars through exporting goods.

US should really produce their own goods, at least to some degree. Though it is obviously not feasible right now since china is still rigorously trying to manipulate its currency to stay competitive - another reason to use the global cryptocurrency bitcoin.

In our marker mostly of most things is from China and quality is good if producer have a good product lines and quality department. If dont check it his product may will banned. Im buying from China directly via aliexpres but not something expensiv, only "onion samples", ofen quality is very good:)

Some of these factories are relocating to other countries such as Cambodia and the Philippines. Recently, the Chinese authorities have taken a tough stance against the slavery like conditions which exist inside these factories. The wages are also going up. So, many of the owners are packing up their belongings and shifting to countries where slave labor supply is still available.

Why not? Chances are even your keyboard, that you used to type the message, components if not the whole keyboard is made in China.

China has become the giant of the world and most Economic activities are moving there. In china you can easily get cheap labour and raw materials. Even most of the designers like Gucci, Prada, Versace e.t.c has factory now in china.

About the comparison with the original products with the Chinese replica, I disagree with you. The quality of these products is that they are impossible to compare. But many people are willing to sacrifice their safety for the sake of economy.

Basically, most of the electronic goods are made in china for the following reasons , cheap labour, favourable trade agreements with other countries, electronic goods are more in china. Also, goods which are made in china is not orginal they are the Chinese version which has the same features and in a cheaper price compared to orginal ones.

When you consider the products owned by reliable and reputable global brands, of course you can trust. When a company builds a factory it carries it's quality to that site too. Since it is their reputation anyway. As many others stated, there is cheap workforce there which will lower their capital expenses so their profit. Salaries in europe is way high to prevent them to keep their prices low because of the operational expenses. In order to be compatible they need to lower the expenses.

On the other hand, I would be very careful when buying a product owned by a Chinese brand. Make sure that the company is on production for decades. You would search the internet and see if the people bought that product are satisfied or not.

its both good and bad. Electronics are good but food made from there tend to have extra ingredient(chemical) to boost production and many other reason, that may harm ones health.

Most gadgets are made in China just because the labor force there is cheaper than most countries. It is also their way wherein investors are constantly going inside their economy as most ceo have more investments in China. I guess we can trust them in terms of their gadgets and other companies outsourcing them.

Majority of Electronics products, Gadgets, shoes. garments. are made in china. can we trust it? ofcourse because we dont have a choice. i check my Laptop its says assemble in china so we are living in the generation where everything is made in china

Of course with a low cost, China more freely to fix the selling price of their products. In fact they started trying to exploit upscale market to get higher value activity.Bank World noted that China was struggling since the mid 90's decade. China has an efficient and most accomplished supplier group in mimics.Very smart and always develop the infrastructure, one of the big projects is to make 10 airports that are planned to be completed in 2020. The third advantage of China's economy is the huge market demand. Factories in Asia are gaining huge share with higher margins and in customer service.At the same time, China's demand to strengthen the supply chain in various countries in Asia. Quality of quality is no doubt.

Thank you for saying that, because I am a Chinese, now we really have a great change in China.

It is about the brand. There are a lot of good brands in China, including Lennovo, Xiaomi, Gionee, Hisense.etc. These brands are quite famous all over the globe and they are very concerned about maintaining and improving the quality.
