家电生产过程的节能减排近年来也得到了高度重视，许多地方政府已经限制新上喷涂生产线，并要求对排放不达标的旧喷涂线进行环保改造，这将促使家电企业直接采用彩涂板，放弃原来的镀锌或者冷轧板磷化喷涂工艺，部分工作环境较好的室内家电外壳材料正在考虑用较低膜厚的彩色耐指纹钢板代替喷粉镀锌钢板或彩涂板。

In recent years, great attention has been paid to energy conservation and emission reduction in the production process of household appliances. Many local governments have restricted new spraying production lines and required environmental transformation of old spraying lines with substandard emissions, which will urge household appliance enterprises to directly adopt color coated plates and abandon the original phosphating spraying process of galvanized or cold-rolled plates, Some indoor home appliance shell materials with better working environment are considering using low film thickness color fingerprint resistant steel plate instead of powder coated galvanized steel plate or color coated steel plate.

目前，pcm彩涂板主要用于电冰箱门板和微波炉炉壳。近年，彩涂板应用领域范围也在不断扩大，如从电冰箱门板扩大到冰箱侧板、全自动洗衣机、微波炉以及电热水器等领域。家电彩预涂板(pcm)、彩色层压覆膜彩板(vcm)，在家电行业中的使用量明显上升。

At present, color coated panels are mainly used for refrigerator door panels and microwave oven shells. In recent years, the application scope of color coated board is also expanding, such as from refrigerator door panel to refrigerator side plate, automatic washing machine, microwave oven and electric water heater. The use of home appliance grade color precoated board (PCM) and color laminated film coated board (VCM) has increased significantly in the home appliance industry.

未来，彩涂家电板不仅在用量上会有所增长，更重要的是将承载高端家电所要求的各种特殊性能。如针对不同家电、不同使用部位，彩涂板需要有耐污性、耐蚀性、耐候性、耐化学药品性和柔韧性等高性能要求，一些高档家电还将对抗菌彩板、洁面热镀铝锌彩板等新产品有更广泛的需求。我国家电行业也将进一步提升产品档次、丰富产品品种，钢铁企业需要提升高强度薄板、大宽幅板、高牌号电工钢、抗菌、耐污、耐化学药品性等新型钢材品种的产能和性能，以应对家电产品结构升级对钢材性能需求提出的挑战。

In the future, color coated household appliance boards will not only increase in consumption, but also carry various special properties required by high-end household appliances. For example, for different household appliances and different parts of use, color coated plates need high-performance requirements such as stain resistance, corrosion resistance, weather resistance, chemical resistance and flexibility. Some high-end household appliances will also have a wider demand for new products such as antibacterial color plates and face cleaning hot-dip aluminum zinc color plates. China's home appliance industry will also further improve the product grade and enrich the product varieties. Iron and steel enterprises need to improve the production capacity and performance of new steel varieties such as high-strength thin plate, large width plate, high-grade electrical steel, antibacterial, pollution resistance and chemical resistance, so as to meet the challenge posed by the structural upgrading of home appliance products to the demand for steel performance.
