How to use 产品

产品 is the everyday word for a product made by a company or factory, and it is common in business, ads and tech talk. Example: 这家公司的新产品很受欢迎。(Zhè jiā gōngsī de xīn chǎnpǐn hěn shòu huānyíng.) This company's new product is very popular.

产 (chǎn) means to produce, and 品 (pǐn) means an item or article. 品 looks like three boxes stacked together, like a pile of goods, so 产品 is the item that comes out of production.

Common mistake: Learners often mix up 产品 (chǎnpǐn) with 商品 (shāngpǐn). 产品 focuses on something being made, while 商品 focuses on something being sold in a store. Also keep both syllables in the third tone. In speech the first one changes to second tone, so it sounds like chánpǐn.
