Recently, the price of silver has continued to soar. As an indispensable key material in the printed circuit industry, the sharp fluctuations in silver prices have exerted a significant impact on the entire industrial chain. Rising costs and compressed profits have become common challenges facing the industry, posing a notable impact on the printed circuit sector. 

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has issued the mandatory national standard Safety Requirements for Traction Batteries of Electric Vehicles (GB 38031-2025), sparking widespread attention across the automotive and sensor industries. Hailed as the strictest-ever battery safety mandate, the standard is scheduled to take full effect on July 1, 2026. For the first time, it incorporates flexible pressure sensors as a core indicator for battery health monitoring, mandating real-time tracking of battery expansion and internal pressure fluctuations to provide critical data support for thermal runaway early warning systems.

With 23 years of experience in rubber and LSR products and flexible printed electronics manufacturing, Suzhou Menhow has completed the integration of the AOI online intelligent inspection system with the MES system, fully replacing traditional manual visual and dimensional inspection processes. The MES system realizes real-time connection between test data and the production execution system, establishing a full-process quality control closed loop of "intelligent inspection - data upload - precise traceability". This significantly improves inspection efficiency and quality stability, injecting digital momentum into the precision manufacturing of rubber and LSR products

Driven by the dual forces of the "dual carbon" goals and increasingly stringent environmental protection policies, China issued the National Food Safety Standard for Silicone Rubber Materials and Products in Contact with Food (GB 4806.16-2025) in September 2025. By tightening the limits on volatile substances and standardizing the raw material access list, this standard has indirectly paved a new path for the market penetration of bio-based silicone.

In January 2026, the 4th Member Congress of the 2nd Term of the Suzhou High-tech Zone Intelligent Manufacturing Industry Association was successfully convened. On this occasion, Suzhou Menhow, a company specializing in the R&D and production of Lsr silicone rubber

 products and printed circuits, officially became a member of the association. This milestone move marks a strategic step in Menhow’s layout in the intelligent manufacturing sector, enabling the company to deepen industrial collaboration, keep abreast of cutting-edge technological trends, and inject new impetus into its high-quality development. 

In high-end sectors like medical devices, smart wearables and automotive electronics, the precision and stability of PET printed circuits directly determine the competitiveness of end products. Faced with the stringent requirements for these circuits—line width accuracy of ±0.02mm and alignment accuracy of ±0.05mm—Suzhou Menhow, a manufacturer with over 20 years of experience in membrane switch, printed Ecg electrode and pressure sensor, has fully introduced advanced AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) intelligent testing equipment. Through an intelligent upgrade covering the entire production process, the company has achieved a leap-forward breakthrough in precision control, delivering reliable customized solutions to high-end customers worldwide

Suzhou Menhow is pleased to announce that it has successfully passed the ISO/TS16949:2009 surveillance audit conducted by NQA, a renowned UK-based certification body, and completed the certification renewal.
