Production notes: Focusing on quality in manufacturing definitely leads to slower growth compared to just chasing marketing. Sure, it’s said that good products don’t fear being hidden away, but not many can withstand the loneliness. In the competitive market, some have slowly abandoned their original principles; when others drop their prices, they follow suit. However, it’s clear that lowering prices on certain products can’t guarantee their quality, which ends up dragging the quality down with the price. We, who are making foam linings, are experiencing the same thing. Recently, we saw some competitors offering products at prices that, when calculated, wouldn’t even cover the electricity costs for the machines. If their companies still need to operate and make profits, they’ll have to find margins elsewhere. If everyone keeps this up, the entire foam lining industry is going to face a tough situation; we’d witness a classic case of bad money driving out good money. Our insistence on quality isn’t about being market-savvy; it’s simply because we can’t accept low-quality products for ourselves, and we don’t believe that everyone only cares about price and ignores quality. If one day we grow, that will be our reward for sticking to quality; but if we don’t make it one day, it won’t mean the market doesn’t care about quality—it’ll just mean we didn’t work hard enough to reach those who appreciate quality.
