Financial Strength & Governance: Listed and Well Governed

Emdoor Information’s financial performance reflects the durability of its business model. Listed on China’s A-share main board in 2023, the company reported 2025 revenue of RMB 4.583 billion (approximately USD 640 million), up 44.15% year over year. This growth is driven by disciplined governance and sustained innovation: R&D staff account for over 40% of the workforce, and cumulative R&D investment over the past five years reached RMB 964 million, a compound annual growth rate of 15.9%. As a publicly listed company with transparent reporting, Emdoor Information offers industrial customers and channel partners the governance stability needed for long-term cooperation.

Beyond standard configurations, Emdoor provides rugged devices customization across hardware, software, and structural redesign for specialized operational needs.

Lifecycle Service Excellence: Worldwide Reach, Lasting Alliances

Recognizing that enterprise and industrial computing deployments often operate on lifecycles of five to ten years, Emdoor Information has built a service architecture for long term reliability. It provides repair services in Hong Kong. Technical support is available through a dedicated hotline, official social media, email, and an online support system with full lifecycle traceability from issue submission to resolution.

The company offers structured maintenance training to help customer engineering teams manage devices autonomously. It also operates a continuous feedback mechanism with after sales follow up and annual satisfaction surveys. Insights from frontline customers are integrated into product development, keeping device capabilities and service delivery aligned with field needs. For channel and distribution partners, Emdoor provides market development support including marketing collateral, agent training, industry salons, and trade show facilitation. Sales enablement includes project registration, territorial protection, and flexible inventory allocation, creating a full spectrum collaboration framework from pre sales consultation to long term after sales engagement.

Arrvel Expands Thermal Label Printer Portfolio for Businesses and Everyday Use

Published

on

By

SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Arrvel is expanding its label printing portfolio with thermal printing solutions designed to support e-commerce sellers, small businesses, and everyday labeling needs. Combining compact designs with practical functionality, Arrvel’s label printers provide convenient solutions for shipping, inventory management, product identification, and household organization.

As online retail and home-based businesses continue to develop, efficient labeling has become an important part of daily operations. Arrvel’s expanded portfolio addresses these needs with dedicated printing solutions that help users manage labeling tasks across business and personal environments without relying on traditional ink-based printers.

Arrvel A42BT: Wireless Thermal Printing for Modern Workflows

A key product in Arrvel’s portfolio is the A42BT, a 4×6 Bluetooth thermal shipping label printer designed for online sellers, small businesses, and home offices. Supporting both Bluetooth and USB connectivity, the printer enables users to print from compatible smartphones, tablets, and computers. The FlashLabel Pro app also supports mobile printing, offering greater flexibility for users managing orders and other labeling tasks.

The A42BT delivers print speeds of up to 150 mm/s at 203 DPI resolution. It supports both roll and fanfold labels and accommodates label widths from approximately 1.57 to 4.3 inches, with support for the widely used 4×6-inch shipping label format. These capabilities make the printer suitable for shipping labels, inventory identification, barcodes, and other labeling applications.

Designed for multi-channel sellers, the A42BT is compatible with major e-commerce and shipping platforms, including Amazon, eBay, Shopify, Etsy, and USPS. This compatibility helps users incorporate label printing into their existing order fulfillment workflows.

To learn more about our thermal label printers or make a purchase, explore our thermal label printers on Amazon.

Streamlining Shipping and E-Commerce Operations

Shipping label printing is a fundamental part of order fulfillment for online sellers. As businesses process orders across multiple sales channels, having a dedicated printing solution can help simplify daily workflows, particularly for those operating from home or managing limited workspace.

Arrvel’s shipping label printer solutions are designed to integrate into packing stations, home offices, retail counters, and small business environments. By providing a dedicated device for shipping labels, these printers help users organize packaging tasks and prepare orders for dispatch more efficiently.

Their applications extend beyond shipping. Businesses can also use label printers to identify products, track inventory, print barcodes, display pricing information, and organize supplies. These capabilities make label printing a practical part of routine business operations.

Direct Thermal Printing Without Ink Cartridges

Arrvel’s thermal printers use direct thermal technology, which produces printed content through heat rather than conventional ink or toner. This method is particularly suitable for labels containing shipping addresses, text, barcodes, and other frequently used information.

Because direct thermal printing does not require ink cartridges or ribbons, it can simplify printer maintenance and reduce the need to replenish traditional printing supplies. For users who regularly produce labels, this offers a straightforward approach to everyday printing.

Arrvel’s thermal printing solutions support a variety of applications, from e-commerce fulfillment and logistics to retail operations, office organization, and household labeling. By focusing on dedicated label printing, the company aims to provide practical options for users with different printing requirements.

Beyond Shipping: Supporting Everyday Labeling Needs

Although shipping is a major application for label printers, their functionality extends to many other business and personal tasks. Arrvel’s solutions can help users organize information, identify products, and maintain more structured work and living spaces.

Small businesses can use labels for inventory tracking, product identification, packaging, and storage management. At home, users can label boxes, folders, shelves, and containers to make everyday organization easier. Independent sellers and creators can also incorporate printed labels into product packaging and order preparation.

This versatility allows a single label printer to serve multiple purposes, making it a useful tool for businesses and individuals who need a convenient way to create clear, consistent labels for different applications.

Compact Solutions for Modern Workspaces

The growth of remote work, independent businesses, and home-based e-commerce has increased demand for equipment that fits into smaller, more flexible work environments. For many users, printing devices need to occupy minimal space while remaining accessible for routine tasks.

Arrvel develops compact, practical printing solutions that can be integrated into desks, packing stations, retail counters, and home offices. The A42BT reflects this approach, measuring approximately 7.2 × 3.15 × 2.56 inches and weighing about 0.86 lb. Its compact footprint makes it suitable for space-conscious workspaces, including home-based businesses and small-scale shipping operations.

Through its label printing portfolio, Arrvel continues to address everyday labeling requirements with solutions designed around practical functionality, flexible connectivity, and convenient use.

World’s doctors call for urgent solutions to harmful false health information

Published

on

By

ROTTERDAM, Netherlands, Oct. 10, 2026 /CNW/ — The World Medical Association (WMA), representing doctors worldwide, is prescribing necessary steps to curb false health information that harms patients and erodes trust in evidence-informed health care.

Today, the 77th General Assembly of the WMA, meeting in the Netherlands, adopted the first-ever global policy to combat false health information. Led by the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) and the Conseil National de l’Ordre des Médecins (CNOM), the policy provides recommendations for governments, technology companies, and medical professionals to strengthen trustworthy health communication worldwide and protect public health from the harmful effects of inaccurate and misleading health claims.

“Physicians have an ethical duty to provide accurate, evidence-based health information,” says Dr. Jung Yul Park, WMA President. “But that trusted voice is increasingly competing with a flood of false and misleading content online, particularly on social media. With AI now able to produce convincing medical deepfakes at scale, this is a global threat to patient safety and public trust that demands an urgent, coordinated international response.”

The policy calls on national health authorities and governments to develop strategies to reduce the spread of and risks associated with false health information, engage social media platforms to develop stronger accountability and transparency measures and remove harmful content, and explore appropriate disciplinary action against non-compliant offenders. It also offers guidance to the medical community on navigating false health information with patients.

“False health information affects us all, sometimes with dire consequences,” says Dr. Alika Lafontaine, CMA delegate. “When inaccurate claims spread, people may reject proven treatments, postpone necessary care, discontinue evidence-based treatment, or adopt harmful practices that damage their well-being. False information can also erode trust in the clinical relationship. Physicians can counter false information one patient at a time, but we also need a systemic response to slow its spread and stop it at its sources.”

“This statement highlights the serious impact of false health information and the need for a coordinated international response. It calls on all involved in producing, publishing and disseminating health-related information to develop a greater sense of responsibility and ensure that information provided to the public is evidence-based,” says Dr. Philippe Cathala, CNOM’s delegate.

About the CMA
The Canadian Medical Association leads a national movement with physicians who believe in a better future of health. Our ambition is a sustainable, accessible health system where patients are partners, a culture of medicine that elevates equity, diversity and wellbeing, and supportive communities where everyone has the chance to be healthy. We drive change through advocacy, giving and knowledge sharing – guided by values of collaboration and inclusion.

About the CNOM :

The Conseil National de l’Ordre des médecins brings together all physicians in France, regardless of their status, specialty, or practice setting. It safeguards the independence, ethical standards, and honor of the medical profession, and serves as the guardian of the doctor-patient relationship.

AI Made Music Fast. CITY JAM Founder Pat Villaceran Says the Real Asset Is the Artist’s Own Sound

Published

on

By

As AI music races on speed and volume, CITY JAM’s INDUSTRY.AIFF works on what no pipeline can force: drawing original sound out of human creators.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Generative AI has made music fast, and the race in AI music is now about speed and volume. Pat Villaceran, founder of CITY JAM, says that race leaves one input untouched: original sound from human creators. Drawing that sound out of artists is both an art and a science. It is the craft behind INDUSTRY.AIFF, which takes a label’s signed-but-unfinished artists to catalog-ready work and carries them through launch.

“When you stack up the progress around AI, it’s all about speed, and about getting human creators back on track. That is an art and a science of its own,” said Villaceran. “There are blueprints in it. Anyone can copy a blueprint: the roadmap, the pipeline, the scheduling and the workflows. But you cannot force the sound to come out if it has to be an original sound. The creativity is in how you bring out and evoke insights from musicians and creatives, and that is what CREATOR LABS and INDUSTRY.AIFF do. How you do that is the expertise we have at CITY JAM.”

In tech terms, the blueprint is the easy part. A release plan can be written down and handed to anyone. Software can run it. The sound, Villaceran says, cannot.

The figures show how fast supply has moved. Luminate’s 2025 Year-End Music Report counted 106,000 tracks a day reaching streaming services in 2025, up 7% on 99,000 a day in 2024. In 2025, 120.5 million of 253 million audio tracks had ten streams or fewer. That is almost half.

A growing share of that supply is not made by people. On Deezer, fully AI-generated tracks reached almost 75,000 a day in April 2026, roughly 44% of daily uploads, and passed 50% of new uploads at the June 2026 peak. Yet AI tracks are 1 to 3% of streams on Deezer, and up to 85% of those streams were fraudulent in 2025. On Deezer, the flood is in uploads, not listening.

The CISAC and PMP Strategy study projects that generative AI “could put 24% of Music creators’ revenues at risk in 2028.” That is a projection.

The US Copyright Office is now asking what that volume costs. Its inquiry into music streaming fraud names, in its Federal Register notice, “the dilution of the royalty revenue pool” as the primary harm, and asks which industry practices may be “inadvertently contributing to streaming fraud.” Initial comments are due November 23, 2026, and replies December 21, 2026.

Detection and enforcement sit with regulators and the streaming services. CITY JAM’s work sits earlier, in the stretch between signing an artist and a finished record. The royalty pool is diluted by volume without an audience. Fully finished, genuine releases are what the pool is for, and those still depend on an artist finding a sound of their own.

So if speed is no longer the hard part, what is music for? Villaceran’s answer is the artist’s own sound. It has to be drawn out of the musician. Then the speed AI brings can serve an original sound instead of replacing it.

INDUSTRY.AIFF does this for record labels and artist services companies. It works with their signed artists from unfinished work to catalog-ready releases, and stays with them through launch.

INDUSTRY.AIFF sits within the AI-era accelerator and incubator model for music that Villaceran launched on October 9, 2026, starting with record labels. Artists get the kind of support a startup accelerator gives founders. Education and professional development sit alongside community and live jam sessions. Collaborations and commercial opportunities come with it, and so does technology.

About CITY JAM

CITY JAM is holistic, end-to-end infrastructure for the music industry, built for everyone from independent musicians to record labels and artist services companies. It runs INDUSTRY.AIFF and CREATOR LABS with a global network of experts and producers, including CITY JAM New York. Pat Villaceran founded and leads CITY JAM. She also founded the innovation agency The MooVe, and has built innovation programs for companies and founders in Asia Pacific and the United States as well as in the United Kingdom and Europe. CITY JAM brings that record to music. INDUSTRY.AIFF is CITY JAM’s program for record labels and artist services companies, and the name of its weekday letter for music label CEOs. CREATOR LABS is a holistic support system for independent musicians. It is a separate offering and is not part of INDUSTRY.AIFF. CITY JAM is a brand of HINABI PRIVE, INC.
