Faucet "lead shadow" incident Supor bathroom was suspected behind the scenes

A few days ago, a report titled “Faucet Lead Shadow” made nine famous Chinese and foreign sanitary ware brands, such as Jiumu, Hengjie, Lejia, Moen, and GROHE, fall into the “toxic leader” scandal. These brands were qualified in the sampling inspection of the Shanghai Bureau of Quality Supervision recently. They said that they have not ruled out being framed by their opponents. The behind-the-scenes black men even pointed to the Supor sanitary ware that is promoting the “lead-free” stainless steel taps. For a time, whether the sanitary brand is truly "toxic" has become more confusing.

Many bathroom brands have been exposed to excessive levels of lead on taps. On July 14th of this year, the "One-seventh" section of Shanghai TV reported on the subject of "lead shadows". Through 32-hour experiments on 13 faucet samples, it was found that Among them, the lead water content of the faucets in 9 brands exceeds the national standard. Among them, American Standard, Shenluda, and Chaoyang Sanitary Ware have a small amount of lead exceeding the standard, Moen, Deta and other brand faucets exceed 2-6 times the lead level, Jiumu, GROHE lead exceeds the standard 18 times, Lejia lead precipitation 173 ug/L. Lead exceeds the standard by 34 times.

And the past quality supervision department checks spot lead exceeding the standard is different from the unnamed small card, the lead of the lead exceeds the standard is a big brand. Taking the domestic brand Jiumu as an example, it has such honors as "China Famous Brand", "China Top Brand" and "National Inspection-free Products", and claims to be fully laying out a "lead-free production line." Among the international brands, Roca Roca, a bathroom brand from Spain, is one of the largest sanitary ware manufacturers in the world. Its operations cover more than 100 countries and regions in the world, and is particularly famous for water conservation. Moen from the United States is the quality of high-end faucets. The symbol, the daily output of up to 80,000.

Experts said that excessive tapping of tap water will cause secondary pollution to drinking water. Long-term use of taps with excessive levels of lead may cause stones and even lead poisoning, which is as harmful as melamine. Nine animal husbandry, music and other large brand bathroom brand surprised the exposure of up to several to several dozen times the lead exceeded the time, one after another into the "drug leader" scandal.

The "poison" brands have declared "screaming"

The detection of faucet lead content is alarming, suspected of "toxic"! This matter is no small matter. A number of bathroom brands that had been exposed to excessive levels of lead all issued statements stating that they were “screaming” and questioned the test results, standards, and methods. The agency responsible for this experiment, East China University of Science and Technology, has become a target of public criticism.

Nine animal husbandry published a statement on the official website, saying that the leaded results announced this time belonged to unofficial organizations. They had different test results because of different testing standards and methods. Lejia pointed out that the information and test results in the report are false, and the so-called detection value and ranking are also ridiculous. Moen contacted East China University of Science and Technology, which is in charge of the test, and asked for a test report and method description.

The Beijing Business Daily reporter found that brands such as Jiumu, Lejia, and Moen who had been caught in the “toxic leading” scandal of lead exceeded the Shanghai Spout products announced in Shanghai on July 8th without exception. Quality supervision and spot check results in the qualified list. In just a few days before and after, the results of the tests announced by the two agencies were so different that whether or not the taps were really “toxic” became confusing.

Supor bathroom was suspected behind the scenes, "This time, the big brands were trapped in the whirlpool of excessive lead. We did not rule out malicious competition. A domestic stainless steel company did not sell well. It deliberately took some large companies to make hype. Stainless steel taps did not contain lead, but chromium may be exceeded. Pollomet is a typical example.” A person in charge of a company that does not want to be openly informed the Beijing Business Daily reporter that the incident of excessive lead may be deliberately framed by his opponent.

The so-called "a stainless steel company" mentioned by this person in charge actually points directly to Supor, who has just entered the bathroom industry. When the sanitary ware brands such as Jiumu and Lejia fell into the "toxic leader" scandal, Supor sanitary wares opened a first stainless steel faucet flagship store in Beijing on July 20th. The publicity slogan played was exactly "lead-free," so it was Acting as a black-handed man behind the lead over the standard event is very stunned. However, Su Zengfu, chairman of the Supor Group, who came to the press conference, categorically denied this statement. He answered hard to answer the Beijing Business Daily reporter: “This is because they are talking nonsense. We only do ourselves.”

It is not yet known whether this "drug leader" storm is a vicious competition speculation. People in the industry believe that "doing yourself well" also applies to sanitary ware brands such as Jiumu, Lejia, etc. that are deeply trapped in the "drug leader" scandal. If you are really impeccable in quality, then even if you want to frame it is not possible, what to say "black hands behind the scenes" is just to shirk its responsibility and divert attention.
