It is understood that this transaction Philips will sell a majority stake in Lumileds including LED components and automotive lighting business unit, which means that Philips lighting business will be officially "transferred" to China. And what impact will this have on the domestic automotive lighting market? How is the future of China's automotive lighting landscape? These issues have become the focus of the current automotive lighting industry.
Intensified competition in the domestic automotive lighting market In response to this, some industry experts believe that Philips' automotive lighting business is “transferred†to China, which is bound to further intensify the competitive situation in the domestic automotive lighting market. According to Wu Shenjun, the interim president of the new Lumileds company, the new company after the completion of the acquisition will first focus on the domestic market, increase investment in talents and capital, and hope to develop IPO in the international market through domestic development. A leading company in the industry. In addition, according to the contract, Lumileds will receive more than 600 patents on LED production and automotive lighting transferred by Philips. This means that Lumileds, which will be managed in China in the future, will continue to have core competitiveness in the field of lighting, and relevant research and development advantages will continue. These will bring more competitive pressure to the domestic automotive lighting market.
As we all know, the technology patents in the LED field have always been a "short board" for Chinese companies, especially the upstream core patents of LEDs, which have long been dominated by international giants, and this is the biggest bottleneck for most lighting companies in China. At present, only a few lighting companies such as Shell Wright have domestic technology patents for independent research and development. In this regard, Shelley said that with the shift of the business focus of the new Lumileds company controlled by China to China, the domestic automotive lighting market will be more competitive, but it will also help stimulate the R&D activity of the domestic automotive lighting industry. Promote healthy competition in the industry.
Snow Wright is expected to become an international first-line brand. In addition, for the impact of Philips “transfer†lighting business on China's automotive lighting pattern, relevant analysts believe that although Philips Lumileds' advantages in automotive lighting will continue, the acquisition will promote China. The automotive lighting industry is still of great significance. At present, China's automotive lighting industry is in the pattern of Philips, Osram and Shelley. The company is a Chinese local lighting company. Although some R&D fields are temporarily unable to compete with Philips and Osram, they are in the domestic automotive lighting field. The leading position is unquestionable. In the future, it will continue to lead the domestic automotive lighting industry with its proprietary technology advantages, and it is expected to rank among the top international brands.
As the only local lighting company in China that can compete with international brands such as Philips and Osram, Shell is not only one of the largest HID automotive lamp manufacturing bases in China, but also the founder of domestic HID automotive lamp production, with its own original ball. The bubble technology has outstanding performance in the field of domestic automotive lighting, especially in the field of HID automotive xenon lamps. The ownership of the world's independent intellectual property system is two unique patent knowledge systems in the world that coexist with the Philips Xenon lamp intellectual property system.
At the same time, as one of the drafting units of HID automobile xenon lamp national standard, Xuelaite is the only manufacturer in China that has the ability to cooperate with the automobile factory. The quality of ballasts and car lamps produced has reached the world advanced level. It has more than 40 domestic and foreign patents in the field of HID lamps and supporting electronic ballasts. It not only breaks the intellectual property monopoly of foreign lighting giants in the global lighting industry in some fields, but also enhances the lighting industry in China in this field. international status.
In addition to the outstanding advantages in the field of HID car xenon lamps, Shellett has also performed well in the field of automotive LED lighting in recent years. The latest LED car lights - the forerunner, whether in terms of lighting brightness, starting speed, or heat dissipation performance , the modification of portability and other aspects have shown the domestic leading level, is considered to be the most influential post-installation LED car lamp manufacturer in China.
For the future development of Shellett, the head of Shelley said that “In the future, Shellett will continue to increase investment in the field of automotive lighting, on the one hand to optimize the production line for improving the automotive lighting business, and on the other hand to increase investment in the formation of a strong management team and innovative research and development. The team aims to develop and introduce more high-quality automotive lighting products to make more contributions to the domestic automotive lighting industry."
