Wooden doors and windows new national standard implementation soon

Since December 1st of this year, the first national standard for wood doors and windows in China, “Wooden Doors and Windows” GB/T 29498-2013, will fully implement the news in the industry caused no small response. This standard is the first national standard for the professional subdivision of wooden doors and windows in China. It is mainly aimed at industrialized production and wooden doors and windows used in modern buildings. The standard puts forward a series of requirements from the product classification and terminology of wooden doors and windows to the inspection, transportation and storage of products. It not only addresses the needs of people in modern society, but also the requirements for their use. After the implementation of the standard, it certainly has some role in promoting the development of the industry. However, how high the driving force is worth considering.

The new national standard will be used as a media person in the window and door industry, and is also very excited about the adoption of the new national standard and the imminent implementation of the news. However, the full text of the new national standard has not been available. For this reason, the author once called a number of wooden door companies and the Guangdong Provincial Door Association to find the full text of the new national standard, and ultimately failed to find it. However, the author also found a problem in this process, it seems that many companies do not attach importance to the new national standard, and even some companies do not know.

The degree of concern of the enterprise here is bleak, but the media attention is very high. In the news of the past half month, the new standard “Wooden Doors and Windows” is about to be implemented. Major portals and some well-known paper media have made reports. Among them, the media's manuscripts have been reprinted nearly 40 times by major media companies. Their main content is the flaws of the wooden door market after the introduction of the new national standard.

Why does the media stir up and the situation of the company is calm? The author analyzes that the media is more concerned about the development of the industry, as well as the protection of consumption and rights, and the enterprises pay more attention to their own development. The introduction of the new national standard definitely has a positive effect on the industry, consumption, and protection of rights and interests. Isn't this promotion of the company? Or does it not promote it?

"Wooden Doors and Windows" is a non-mandatory national standard for the recommended national standard. Speaking of the national standard, two concepts must be emphasized: GB denotes a national mandatory standard, and GB/T denotes a national standard recommended type. The mandatory standards must be implemented by the enterprise. The recommended standards can be implemented by reference or not. However, if the enterprise adopts the recommended standards, it must meet its standards.

GB is the national mandatory national standard and GB is the Chinese Pinyin abbreviation of "National Standard". The number consists of the code of the national standard, the serial number issued by the national standard, and the year number issued by the national standard. The mandatory national standard is a national standard that guarantees the safety of human health, personal and property, and is enforced by laws and administrative regulations.

GB/T refers to the recommended national standard (GB/T), and "T" means the recommendation. The recommended national standard refers to a type of standard voluntarily adopted for production, exchange, use, etc., adjusted through economic means, and is also called a voluntary standard. Any unit of such a standard has the right to decide whether to use it, violate such standards, and not assume economic or legal responsibilities. However, once it is accepted and adopted, or all parties agree to agree to be included in an economic contract, it becomes the technical basis that all parties must jointly abide by, and it is legally binding.

From the above materials, it can be seen that the forthcoming “Wooden Doors and Windows” new national standard is a recommended national standard. Such a standard has a lot of variables in its implementation. Whether or not the company adopts it is a problem in the implementation process. In addition, whether real estate developers and consumers accept the standard are also influencing factors. Therefore, it is normal for companies to have a calm attitude.
