As winter comes, the demand for heating equipment has surged in European countries amid the intensifying energy shortage.
China's manufacturers of electric blankets, air conditioners and electric heaters are revving up production to meet the increasing foreign orders.

In Zhejiang province's Yiwu, China's small commodity hub, warming equipment exports rose 41.6 percent to 190 million yuan ($26.4 million), the city's customs showed.
