Chinese maker of stainless-steel process equipment and pressure vessels for pharmaceutical, biotech, food and chemical manufacturers.
Chinese maker of stainless-steel process equipment and pressure vessels for pharmaceutical, biotech, food and chemical manufacturers.
Takes orders for custom stainless-steel process systems built to a drug maker's design, then installs and validates them, with revenue booked as projects progress, so results follow customers' plant-building budgets rather than steady repeat purchases. Pharma and biotech plant builds are its biggest source of orders.
In one line: A smaller-scale Chinese answer to GEA or Alfa Laval.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, customer qualification). Engineering expertise and validated equipment for regulated pharma/biotech manufacturing create switching costs.
Headquarters: Shanghai, China · Founded: 2003 · Employees: 4,800
