Second Meeting of the Public Textile Washing Professional Committee Directors 
To fully implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's thoughts on strengthening ecological civilization construction, the Tianjin Laundry Industry Association organized the directors of the Public Textile Professional Committee to collectively study General Secretary Xi Jinping's speech at the National Ecological Environment Protection Conference. It guided everyone to deeply understand that "the ecological environment is a major political issue related to the Party's mission and purpose, as well as a major social issue related to people's livelihood." Further emancipate the mind and comprehensively do a good job in the city's public textile washing work.
After the study, President Chen Qijun of the City Laundry Industry Association spoke in combination with the current situation and requirements of public textile washing in our city.
First, we must be full of confidence in the development of the public textile washing industry. The laundry industry directly serves the citizens; as long as there is demand from the public, the market will exist, and enterprises can survive. The key is to choose the right location and position. For the Tianjin laundry industry, it means following the General Secretary's instructions: "In environmental protection, we must establish a big-picture view, a long-term view, and a holistic view, adhere to protection first, and adhere to the basic national policy of conserving resources and protecting the environment." We must resolutely update equipment and innovate washing processes to provide the public with high-quality and healthy services. Only in this way can enterprises survive and develop. 
Second, we must raise environmental awareness and operate in compliance with the law. The laundry industry is developing towards being technology-based and environmentally friendly. With the application of modern science and technology in the laundry industry and government policy encouragement, energy-saving and environmentally friendly laundry equipment will gradually replace high-energy-consuming and highly polluting outdated equipment. Fully enclosed dry cleaning machines will gradually replace open-type dry cleaning machines. The laundry industry will develop towards energy saving and consumption reduction, super-strong filtration and recovery of residual liquids, harmless treatment of wastewater, and health and environmental protection. First, when selecting and constructing new enterprises, the focus is on environmental impact assessment issues. Factors such as sewage, exhaust emissions, equipment noise, and disposal of waste chemicals must meet national environmental protection requirements. We have no autonomy in this regard and rely on environmental testing by national authoritative departments. Second, when enterprises update and purchase washing equipment, environmental protection issues must also be considered. When purchasing new equipment, the "Environmental Impact Assessment Report" must be reviewed; it is best not to buy without this report to avoid new losses or burdens. Third, according to the actual situation of Tianjin's laundry industry, establish a community of interests and take the path of joint development through various models such as alliances, mergers, and shareholding systems. Fully utilize existing funds, equipment, and technology, leverage professional expertise, and provide standardized, high-quality, and healthy services to the public.
Third, we must improve ideological understanding and consciously change business concepts. As a traditional service industry, reform and innovation are necessary. Operators must first raise their awareness of transformation in their minds and consciously change their business philosophy. First, fully understand yourself. Have a clear and definite understanding of your enterprise, clarify your own advantages and disadvantages, identify constraints restricting enterprise development, and seek breakthroughs. Second, expand thinking space, raise your standpoint, and look forward to enterprise development. Third, be brave in innovation, follow the path of scale, branding, and chain operation, leverage the advantages of different enterprises in modern laundry, and cultivate and build "intensive-standardized-intelligent-scaled" modern laundry enterprises. 
Fourth, make great efforts to solve and break through the prominent problems existing in the entire industry. Currently, the Tianjin laundry industry generally faces six prominent problems: first, the entire industry faces upgrades in equipment, technology, environmental protection, and management level; second, washing costs continue to increase; third, talent shortage; fourth, adjustment and innovation of business strategies are difficult; fifth, laundry quality complaints and standards for resolving laundry complaints need improvement; sixth, due to the impact of environmental air governance, enterprise operating costs have increased significantly, and some enterprises with non-compliant exhaust and wastewater emissions have been forced to shut down.
Facing the severe economic situation, we can only follow our own path, work hard on the "new" aspects, face the new situation, stand at a new starting point, rely on new thinking, master new technology, use new materials, and occupy new markets. Through our efforts, we will solve and break through the difficulties restricting the development of Tianjin's laundry industry and achieve new development.
