Abantu abaningi abathenga amatende okusiza ezinhlekeleleni baye babuza umbuzo ofanayo: La matende angasetshenziswa isikhathi esingakanani ngempela? Abantu abehlukene banikeza izimpendulo ezihlukene. Abanye, becaphuna izinga lemboni yoMnyango Wezindaba Zomphakathi, bathi zingasetshenziswa ngokuqhubekayo iminyaka engaphezu kwemi-2; abaphathi bendawo yokugcina impahla bazothi badinga ukushintshwa ngemva kweminyaka engu-6 yokugcina; abanye bathi amatende okuyala angagcinwa iminyaka eyi-10. Zontathu izibalo zilungile ngoba zibhekisela ezintweni ezihluke ngokuphelele.
Izinga lemboni ye-MZ/T 011 "Amatende Okusiza Ezinhlekeleleni" isho ngokucacile ukuthi itende elilodwa lingasetshenziswa ngokuqhubekayo iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-2 ngaphansi kwezimo ezivamile. Lokhu kubhekisela esikhathini sangempela esisetshenziswa. Nokho, iminyango efanele ezifundeni ezihlukahlukene ibhekisela "Kumazinga Anconyiwe Okuphila Kwesitoreji Sezinto Ezimaphakathi Eziphuthumayo Zosizo Lwezinhlekelele" ezigciniwe zabo. Ukuphila kokugcina amatende ohlobo olulodwa lwefreyimu kanye netende leminyaka engu-60 kanye ne-cotton-quare imitha engu-60 mesh-quare-frame Itende lomyalo, yiminyaka eyi-10. Lesi sikhathi sokuphila sisho isikhathi amatende ahlala ngaso ngaphandle kokuwohloka, okuhlukile kunesikhathi esenziwe ngaso amatende asetshenziswayo ukuqinisekisa ukuthi wonke amatende asetshenziswa enhlekeleleni asesimweni esihle, hhayi ukuthi ahloselwe ukuhlala iminyaka eyisithupha kuphela.
Amatende okusiza ezinhlekeleleniikakhulukazi ziwuhlobo lohlaka, nomzimba wetende owenziwe ngendwangu ye-Oxford engenamanzi ye-PVC noma indwangu eboshiwe, nohlaka olwakhiwe ngamapayipi ensimbi ashiselwe. Indwangu yetende inesikhathi esifushane kakhulu sokuphila; ngisho nendwangu eboshiwe ibhekwa isikhathi sokugcina iminyaka eyisithupha. Iyakwazi ukulimala kusuka elangeni eliqondile kanye nomswakama; ukuchayeka elangeni isikhathi eside kubangela ukuguga futhi kube brittle, kuyilapho ukuba manzi isikhathi eside kuholela ekukhuleni kwesikhunta. Uhlaka luhlala isikhathi eside, kodwa lusengozini yokugqwala kusukela ekuthintekeni kuya kumashisela nopende. Ngakho-ke, ezinye izifunda zibonisa ukuthi uma indwangu yetende idabukile, kungathengwa indwangu entsha yetende futhi kushintshwe, kuyilapho uhlaka lusengasetshenziswa, ngokuvamile okuholela ekuphileni kwangempela okude kunokulindelekile. Izimo zokugcina zibaluleke ngokufanayo. Indawo yokugcina impahla enomoya omuhle, ephakeme, nengenawo umswakama iqinisekisa ukuthi amatende angagcinwa ngokuzinza ngomjikelezo ogcwele wokugodla. Amatende asetshenziswa ngenkathi yemvula angomiswa ngaphambi kokuba agcinwe ayoba nephunga elinamandla lapho evulwa kabusha ngonyaka olandelayo.
Ngomhla ka-Novemba 1, 2024, izinga likazwelonke elithi "Izimfuneko Zobuchwepheshe Ezijwayelekile zeAmatende Okusiza Ezinhlekeleleni"(I-GB/T 44010-2024) iqale ukusebenza ngokusemthethweni, ihlanganisa i-waterproof, windproof, flame-retardant, kanye nemithetho yokuhlola ukusebenza komswakama kanye nokuhlola amatende okusiza ezinhlekeleleni ohlobo lohlaka. Lapho uthenga itende, abathengi kufanele baqale bahlole ukuthi lakhiwe ngokwaleli zinga futhi uma kunemibiko yokuhlola ehambisanayo; lokhu kuthembeke kakhulu kunesikhathi sokuphila.
I-Tangshan Pengcheng Outdoor Products Co., Ltd. (uphawu "Pengcheng") ngumkhiqizi wamatende e-Tangshan, esiFundazweni sase-Hebei, owasungulwa ngo-2014. Bakhiqiza amatende okusiza ezinhlekeleleni, amatende kakotini, namatende omyalo, bahlinzeka ngokuthenga kukahulumeni wasekhaya futhi bathumele emazweni aseNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia, e-Afrika, eMpumalanga Ephakathi, nakwezinye izifunda. Incazelo yefekthri ilula: ayikho impendulo engaguquki yokuthi itende lingahlala iminyaka emingaki. Isikhathi sokuphila sangempela sincike endwangu yetende, uhlaka, izimo zesitoreji, kanye nemikhuba yokulinakekela. Ngokugcinwa okufanele kanye nokushintshwa ngesikhathi kwendwangu yetende, iminyaka eyisithupha noma eyisikhombisa ivamile. Ukuthi uzoyishintsha noma cha kuncike ezintweni ezintathu: ukuthi indwangu yetende isangangeni manzi, ukuthi uhlaka lunezimbobo zokugqwala, nokuthi izintambo nezigxobo zonke azishintshile. Uma womathathu esesimweni esihle, itende lisengasetshenziswa.
