GuangzhouApril 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On April 24, 2026, at the new product launch event of the 139th China Import and Export Fair (also known as the “Canton Fair”), SGS, an internationally recognized testing, inspection, and certification organization, awarded the EU SGS-TÜV SAAR and China CQC certificates to the photovoltaic stone curtain wall product eSolarFacade (eBIPV) of Guangdong Fumei Material Science and Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Fumei”). Obtaining these certificates demonstrates the exceptional quality of Fumei’s photovoltaic stone curtain wall products, further solidifying its influence in the global supply chain. Zheng Kai, Director of Renewable and Advanced Energy at SGS’s Connectivity, Technology, and Electrical and Electronic Services, Mai Xinjing, International Business Director of Fumei, along with representatives from both parties, attended the certificate awarding ceremony.

- Industry Upgrade Imperative: International Certification Becomes a Core Dimension for Evaluating Photovoltaic Module Quality
As one of the most important renewable energy sources, photovoltaic power generation is a key focus for future development across countries and regions worldwide. Photovoltaic modules, as core components of photovoltaic power generation, are experiencing rapid technological innovation, with various technical routes and product types emerging continuously, and conversion efficiency records being constantly broken, leading to intense industry competition. Consequently, the entire market increasingly values the role of certification certificates in verifying the quality of photovoltaic modules.
The IEC 61215 / IEC 61730 series of standards, issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), are the most widely recognized testing and certification standards for photovoltaic module products. As an internationally recognized testing, inspection, and certification organization, SGS is among the first institutions to obtain CB certification qualification for the new versions of IEC 61215:2021 and IEC 61730:2023.
- International Certificates: Helping Enterprises Expand into Global High-End New Energy Markets
Mai Xinjing, International Business Director of Fumei, stated at the certificate awarding ceremony:
“In practical applications, Fumei’s photovoltaic stone curtain wall allows light to penetrate the special structural surface material, where it is then absorbed by the internal high-efficiency photovoltaic material and converted into electrical energy. This process significantly enhances the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic material, avoids light pollution from building reflections, and can simultaneously integrate multiple functions such as imaging, insulation, and generating negative oxygen ions based on customer needs, thereby improving the overall performance and comfort of the building. This time, Fumei’s photovoltaic stone curtain wall product eSolarFacade (eBIPV) has received the EU SGS-TÜV SAAR and China CQC certificates from SGS, which will effectively enhance the international core competitiveness of Fumei’s photovoltaic products and help expand into global high-end new energy markets. In the future, both parties will continue to collaborate to jointly promote the evolution of building envelope systems toward an intelligent ecological interface of ‘energy hub – light environment carrier – information medium,’ reconstructing the value chain of the building industry.”
Zheng Kai, Director of Renewable and Advanced Energy at SGS’s Connectivity, Technology, and Electrical and Electronic Services, pointed out:
“SGS has been cooperating with Fumei for many years. Earlier, SGS had already issued CB, EU CE, and UK UKCA certificates for Fumei’s photovoltaic stone curtain wall products. This time, SGS conducted rigorous tests on this model product according to the IEC 61215:2021, IEC 61730:2023, and other series of standards, including dynamic/static mechanical load, DH1000, TC200, UV aging, PID, and other relevant standard tests. Ultimately, the product passed the tests and received the EU SGS-TÜV SAAR and China CQC certificates from SGS, further helping Chinese enterprises drive forward with a ‘compliance + quality’ dual-wheel approach, promoting more high-quality Chinese products and brands to the world.”
SGS has been deeply involved in the photovoltaic energy industry for over a decade, possessing extensive testing and certification experience. It can provide enterprises with one-stop solutions for products including photovoltaic modules and systems, as well as global market access certification services.
