2022 China Emergency Lighting Luminaire Market Report

Quality supervision of the emergency lighting luminaire industry is becoming stricter

According to the current National standard (mandatory / recommended) "GB51309-2018 Technical Standard for Fire Emergency Lighting and Evacuation Indication Systems", fire emergency lighting luminaire refers to a Luminaire that provides lighting for personnel evacuation and areas that must remain operational during a fire.

Since 2012, the "Provisions on the Supervision and Administration of Fire Protection Products" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 122, effective January 1, 2013) issued by the Ministry of Public Security and other authorities has fully incorporated the supervision and administration of fire protection products such as emergency lighting luminaires into a legal and standardized framework. This has improved the market access system for the fire protection industry and intensified efforts to crack down on counterfeit and substandard fire protection products. With the development of the national economy and increased public awareness of fire safety, regulatory oversight in China's fire safety industry has become increasingly stringent, while market access standards and product quality specifications for emergency lighting luminaires continue to rise.

In November 2020, the Certification and Accreditation Administration and other departments further optimized the catalog of compulsory product certification for the fire protection industry, listing refuge and escape products as one of the three major mandatory certification categories. This includes fire emergency lighting luminaires, leading to stricter industry regulation and higher market entry barriers.
