The sales of domestic mobile phones continue to grow in the global market, and the supply chain manufacturers behind them are gradually being known to more and more consumers. Recently, China's leading electromagnetic shielding film manufacturer GZFB Electronic Materials Technology Group released its financial report for the first half of this year. Statistics show that GZFB's half-year sales of more than 140 million have become China's first in this field and the world's second largest technology giant.
The main customers of GZFB are Samsung, Huawei, OPPO, vivo and other manufacturers. The electromagnetic shielding film provided by the company is mainly used to shield the electromagnetic disturbance generated by the internal components of the mobile phone, so as to avoid the problem of unclear sound when the mobile phone is talking. In fact, in addition to mobile devices, such as laptops and GPS, electromagnetic shielding films are also included in the products to prevent the communication quality of the devices from being affected.
GZFB did not establish a leading position in the market from the very beginning. Like most domestic technology manufacturers, GZFB can achieve today's results, and its past experience can be regarded as a history of counterattacks. At the beginning, only Japanese manufacturers were able to produce electromagnetic shielding films. Japan's TATSUTA monopolized the entire electromagnetic shielding film market from 1999 to 2008.
Even in 2008, the Japanese company Toyo broke the monopoly of TATSUTA on the product, but for domestic mobile phone manufacturers, there is no difference between one Japanese company and two Japanese companies. Domestic mobile phone companies want to obtain supply guarantee. Must have domestic electromagnetic shielding film. It is in this context that GZFB was established in 2010.
In just two years, GZFB became the first domestic manufacturer to develop electromagnetic shielding films, successfully breaking the monopoly of Japanese companies in this field. There are two reasons why GZFB can obtain research results so quickly:
On the one hand, it is the gathering of high-end talents, on the other hand, it is willing to invest. In order to study this technology, GZFB has formed a team with master's degree or above, and R&D personnel account for more than 20% of the company's total number. Moreover, GZFB's annual R&D investment accounts for more than 8% of the company's revenue. Such accumulation of talents regardless of cost, burning money for research and development, can quickly obtain results is also reasonable.
On the other hand, the wave of 5G replacement is coming, and domestic mobile phone sales are about to usher in a new round of growth, and the market demand for GZFB's electromagnetic shielding film products has increased significantly.
