The eco-environment grid-based precision monitoring and decision support system developed by Sailhero Environmental Protection belongs to the leading equipment at home and abroad. Through the monitoring of the effectiveness of the whole sample, it accurately locks the source of pollution and provides strong decision support and effective science and technology for regional environmental pollution prevention and control. According to the person in charge of the company, the system has been applied in 14 provinces and 88 cities and counties (including 16 transmission channel cities) in the country. There are 16 in the “2+26” cities, and the number of installation points is tens of thousands. The market share is far ahead; in addition, the company has also led the preparation of three local standards for Hebei Province, including technical requirements, installation acceptance and allegations, filling the domestic gap.

In addition, Sailhero Environmental Protection's series of products,  the“Hechang Water System Intelligent Control System”based on the Internet of Things and water quality target management, relies on small, fast, flexible and portable water quality monitoring sensors to distribute sensitive points such as surface water, groundwater and water pollution sources and trace the discharge of water pollution sources, so as to implement the enterprise's "river system" development strategy.

According to Li Yuguo, chairman of the group, the company has established the industry’s first ecological environment big data application center and formed a team of more than 100 expert consultants to build a smart environment management system based on the Internet of Things and big data analysis to provide overall solutions for environmental management. It has put forward a plan to meet the standards, help the government to optimize and adjust the energy structure and industrial structure, and promote the sustainable development of the environment, economy, and society.

 At present, Sailhero Environmental Protection is fully advancing the transformation strategy, internationalization strategy and capital strategy, relying on the three strategies to realize the transformation from environmental monitoring equipment R&D and manufacturer to a comprehensive service provider for the entire industry chain of environmental management and regional environmental governance. Last year, Sailhero also had contact with the relevant persons in charge of Top Design and Bifoxs Design in the early stage, exchanged views on the transformation and upgrading of portable testing equipment, indoor workstation equipment and other products, and got a preliminary understanding of the relevant design schemes of Sailhero products. Looking forward to their futher cooperation.

▲Hao Lixiao, Deputy Director of Hebei Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology

Deputy Director Hao Lixiao said that in the early stage, Chairman Li Yuguo personally led a team to visit HIDC to conduct research, which is enough to show the importance of high-level enterprises on industrial design. As a leading company in the industry, Sailhero Environmental Protection has formed the second step of its internationalization strategy transformation. It has a huge market space at home and abroad. She hoped that through the sword of industrial design, it can break through its achievements in environmental protection and upgrade the scale of the company again. Director Shirley Feng is known as "the driving force of Shenzhen's design capital". Her opinions are more authoritative. Most enterprises in Hebei Province mainly focus on product design that solves the product function stage, but foreign customers pay more attention to the improvement of products by industrial design. Therefore, in addition to meeting the basic functional requirements, more attention should be paid to the upgrading of product performance and appearance, and the important role of industrial design in driving economic empowerment should be brought into play.

▲Shirley Feng, Director of Hebei Industrial Design Innovation Center

Director Shirley Feng used two sets of keywords to express her feelings during the exchange with Chairman Li Yuguo.

The first key word is "shocking". First, She agreed with the achievements of Sailhero Environmental Protection, and felt shocking. The display plan of the exhibition hall and the type and performance of the products can indeed represent the strength of Hebei Province as a benchmark enterprise.

The second keyword is "action". First we have to act quickly, starting with the product. A series of inspection cabinets mentioned in the interview just about to go abroad to participate in the UN-level professional exhibition. Facing the competition of foreign similar products, our products need to add more industrial design factors. Compared with the first-class brand of Siemens, we need to accelerate the pace to deepen the products of the previous matchmaking. Then about branding, the product design should be standard systemized and branded. If the effect presented is holistic, the brand value will be more effective. The third aspect is to respond to the requirements of the governor, realize the industrial Internet, and contact the industrial manufacturing Internet field. We hope to cooperate with Huawei, Tencent and other enterprises to realize the cloud computational ability and build Hebei regional brand. Starting with the Sailhero Environmental Protection, we will build it into a pilot demonstration unit. It also plays a leading role for other enterprises in Hebei. Through the model project of this model, Hebei's high quality development will be shown.

Transformation and upgrading is the only way for enterprises to survive, and industrial design is the just-needed need for enterprises' product and brand development. At the same time of adhering to the business philosophy of “Certifying the World and Caring for Everything”, Sailhero Enterprise has always maintained a revolutionary heart of reform and progress. In the next step, Sailhero will intensively contact with design institutes such as Top Design and Bifoxs to exchange ideas and develop product upgrade plans. In the future, the company will quickly enter the road of design transformation, move quickly, produce products, and take the lead in market leadership. In the great journey of making the company bigger and stronger, it will contribute to the "Sailhero power" for the ecological civilization construction of the new era!
