Shandong maker of high-performance NdFeB permanent magnets, mainly supplying electric-vehicle motor makers.
Sells made-to-order magnets directly to motor makers, with Chinese EV makers the largest buyers, and prices that follow the cost of the rare-earth metals inside. Each magnet grade is approved by the customer, which keeps supply relationships for years. It is setting up plants abroad so it can supply carmakers near their own factories.
