The Corporation Income Tax Law enacted in March this year introduced preferential taxes for manufacturers of energy efficient products, but detailed regulations are still to come.

Cui Hua said more products would be added to the certification list, including industrial and architectural products.

The certification program had motivated manufacturers to produce more resource efficient products and help consumers to make informed purchase decisions, said sources with the CSC.

The certification falls into two categories -- energy and water efficiency -- covering 68 kinds of products, including home appliances, lighting, electrical machinery, construction products and office equipment.
