In the cold precision machining workshop of the second phase new factory of Herui Mai Material Technology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd., there is no scorching furnace, but there is a precise "cold process" - the robotic arm rotates flexibly to cold roll, clean, and precision process special alloy pipes one by one at room temperature, ultimately becoming an industrial "blood vessel" that can withstand high temperature, high pressure, and strong corrosive environments. This 12500 square meter cold-rolled precision machining factory, which was put into operation on the 25th, is integrating "cold technology" into the "heat wave" of China's industrial development, becoming a vivid footnote to the European steel industry giant's continued optimism about the Chinese market. The story of Herui Mai in China began in 1985, when its predecessor, Swedish Sandvik Materials Technology Co., Ltd., was one of the earliest Swedish industrial enterprises to enter China. That year, it established a sales office in China, taking the first step in exploring the Chinese market. In 2007, the HeRuiMai Zhenjiang factory was officially registered, becoming its first factory in China. Since then, it has continued to expand its presence in China, with a revenue of 1.544 billion yuan in the Chinese market by 2024. In the early years, some foreign-funded enterprises invested in China with a focus on low-cost advantages, but now we value the market potential and technological leadership here more. ”Joran Bjorkman, CEO and President of Herui Mai, said that when China first came to China in the 1990s, it was still dominated by labor-intensive industries, but now it has become the forefront of global green technology innovation. The innovation speed of China is astonishing, especially in the fields of new energy vehicles, solar energy, etc. These pipe products that have emerged from cold precision machining workshops are widely used in petrochemical, oil and gas extraction, power energy, transportation, and other fields due to their excellent resistance to extreme environmental conditions. Nowadays, Herui Mai has expanded its products to emerging fields such as hydrogen energy and solar energy. From sales offices to manufacturing bases, and then to innovation hubs, we have witnessed China's transformation from a 'world factory' to an 'innovation highland'. ”Cai Yuanbo, General Manager of Herui Mai Material Technology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd., pointed out that in the past seven years, Herui Mai's pipe business has achieved a compound annual growth rate of over 20% in the Chinese market. "With the new factory put into operation, it is expected that the profit margin will achieve double-digit growth this year." Now, the Zhenjiang base not only serves the Chinese market, but also exports products to countries and regions such as South Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia, achieving a strategic layout of "based in China and radiating to Asia". Cai Yuanbo revealed that behind this strategic layout, there is a deep alignment between He Ruimai and China's development philosophy. The proportion of recycled steel in the production process of Herui Mai exceeds 80%, and greenhouse gas emissions have always remained at a relatively low level in the industry. The roof of the newly put into operation factory is covered with photovoltaic panels, and the proportion of green electricity used in the company's production process has been increasing year by year. He Ruimai proposed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 50% compared to 2019 before 2030. China is not only the world's largest chemical market, but also a testing ground for green technology innovation. We invest here because we believe in China's future. ”Joran Bjorkman said.
