In addition to providing domestic consumption, we also see a growth of 0.7% in the field of home appliance exports, which are all signs of the growth of home appliances industry in Iran. Examples of domestic products include washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, televisions, gas stoves, vacuum cleaners, etc. One of the most important features of home appliances produced in Iran is that they are sold in the market with the same quality or in some cases even higher than its foreign equivalent, but at the same time, at a more reasonable price than the foreign similar product.
The importance of the home appliance industry
Since an important part of polymer products is consumed in the field of home appliances industry, we can understand the importance of this large industry. Therefore, if we have a good growth in the field of home appliance production, then other manufacturing industries, including polymer industries, will also make significant progress. On average, more than sixty to seventy percent of raw materials needed in the production of household appliances are provided from domestic polymer products.
According to the statistics based on the International Monetary Fund in 2019, the share of Iran’s home appliance industry in the country’s gross production was only 1.3%, which will reach 13% in 2022. Also, according to the report of the International Monetary Fund, Iran’s GDP has grown by 161 billion dollars on the basis of purchasing power parity, and a number of 1616 billion dollars has been reported for it.
Application of polymer in home appliance industry
As mentioned above, polymer products are the most used in making household appliances. So that various polymers are used in making small to large household appliances. Polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, polyester, polymethyl methacrylate and polyamides are very useful and important polymers in this field.
One of the reasons why polymers are widely used in Iran’s home appliance industry is their affordability and high quality. Other characteristics of synthetic polymers include their high resistance to heat and heat, flexibility, anti-UV and their high strength.
summary
Considering the influence and importance of the home appliances industry in the economic growth of a country, it is necessary to apply new knowledge and great thoughts in this field. Continuity and chainability of polymer industries and household appliances must always be maintained so that these two industries can grow and develop in parallel. As it was said that the home appliance industry is the heart of our country’s economy, whenever there is a disruption or inconsistency in any of the industries related to this industry, the damages and injuries caused by them will also include the home appliance industry of Iran. In the end, it is hoped that With the grace of God and the efforts of all the officials and craftsmen of our country, this valuable industry will reach a good position in the world.
