The market competitiveness of SPC flooring has been verified, and the revenue has achieved rapid growth. In terms of products, the company’s SPC floor achieved a revenue of 1.33 billion yuan in 2021, with a year-on-year increase of 57.1%, accounting for 74% from 69.2% in 2020. With good dimensional stability and impact resistance, SPC floor is widely used in various types of floor decoration such as home decoration, commercial and public areas, and has gradually become the PVC floor product with the largest demand of the company in recent years; LVT flooring achieved a revenue of 240 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.6%; WPC flooring achieved a revenue of 210 million yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 18.9%. As some LVT flooring and WPC flooring have been gradually replaced by SPC flooring with similar specifications, the growth rate of LVT and WPC flooring is lower than that of SPC products. In 2021, the company will continue to carry out product, process and technological innovation to meet the needs of customers for high-quality and multi-functional products; At the same time, the company has strengthened the construction of its own brand and gradually expanded its product line on the basis of the existing flooring to enhance its core competitiveness. It is expected that in the future, with the increasing maturity of PVC flooring industry, the market will gradually focus on specialization. With strong brand influence and extensive market popularity, the company’s revenue scale is expected to continue to expand, and the scale effect will gradually appear.
The number of new customers continued to increase and the customer structure was further optimized. The company has established good cooperative relations with international well-known flooring brands and building materials retailers such as kingfisher, beaulieucanada, engineeredfloors and hornbach. In 2021, the sales of the company’s top five customers accounted for 34.5% (the former value was 37.1%), and the concentration of key customers decreased, mainly due to the rapid growth of new customer orders and the further optimization of customer structure. In terms of production capacity, the company’s 800 cabinet production capacity of China’s old factory and 650 cabinet production capacity of Vietnam’s first and second factories have basically reached full capacity, and the orders are relatively saturated. The production capacity infrastructure of Vietnam’s third factory and China’s raised investment project of 20 million square meters of PVC flooring is under normal progress, and the equipment installation and production are expected to be completed and put into operation within the year. The company’s new production capacity mainly supplies the demand for new customer orders. It is expected that the large volume of new customer orders will further promote the company’s revenue scale.
