The weight of metal materials and products worldwide that cannot be used due to rust is approximately equivalent to 20% to 40% of the annual output of metal materials. According to the research team led by Academician Hou Baorong of the Chinese Academy of Engineering on "Research on the Corrosion Situation and Control Strategy in China", "Our corrosion cost accounts for 3% to 5% of GDP. The corrosion loss in 2014 was approximately over 2 trillion RMB." According to relevant statistics, the annual losses caused by rust and corrosion are far greater than the total losses from natural disasters and other types of accidents.
According to the data from the Bureau of Statistics, China's natural disasters (mainly floods, typhoons, droughts and earthquakes, and also include hailstorms, low-temperature freezing, snow disasters, collapses, landslides, mudslides, fires and forest fires, etc.) are as follows: In 2014, various natural disasters in China caused a total direct economic loss of 337.38 billion yuan. In 2016, the cumulative direct economic loss caused by natural disasters across the country was 503.29 billion yuan. In 2017, the direct economic loss caused by natural disasters across the country was 301.87 billion yuan.
It can be seen that the losses caused by rust and corrosion are far greater than those caused by natural disasters during the same period.
According to our on-site investigation, for a refrigeration equipment component manufacturing enterprise located in Hebei Province, the annual rework and scrapping losses caused by rust account for about 35% of its output value. Improper selection of anti-rust oil agents and rough protection processes are both important factors leading to economic losses and persistently high product costs. Therefore, the improvement of rust prevention and protection quality for mechanical processing and electromechanical products needs to be given due attention.
Toprangk has always prioritized customer satisfaction and, through years of unremitting efforts, has established a powerful R&D team, a complete quality monitoring system, and a professional after-sales service team. It can provide reliable protection for rust prevention of mechanical processing and electromechanical products.
