I. Company Milestones
Huada Chemical Group Co., Ltd. (“Huada Chem”), formerly known as Yantai Huada Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., traces its development as follows:
On February 8, 1993, Yantai Wanhua Synthetic Leather Group contributed assets from its original Polyurethane Resin Branch Factory and Polyester Polyol Workshop, and partnered with Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, Incorporated (DIC) to establish Yantai Huada Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.;
In early 2003, Yantai Wanhua Synthetic Leather Group acquired all shares held by DIC, transforming the Company into a wholly state-owned subsidiary under Yantai Wanhua Synthetic Leather Group;
On September 30, 2004, the Company was restructured into a privately-owned enterprise;
On July 22, 2013, the Company was renamed Huada Chemical Group Co., Ltd.
II. Company Profile
The Company is one of the earlier domestic chemical new material manufacturers to achieve large-scale production of polyurethane resins and among the first in the industry to pass ISO9001 quality system certification. Currently, the Company operates through 6 subsidiaries, and its business operations encompass the research & development, manufacturing, and sales of a diverse product portfolio, including polyester polyols, polyurethane resins for synthetic leather, polyurethane resins for shoe soles, polyurethane adhesives, water-based polyurethane resins, solvent-free polyurethane resins, and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) resins, with annual sales exceeding RMB 3 billion.
The Company initially imported its primary production technologies from Japan. Subsequently, while bolstering its commitment to independent research, development, and innovation, it forged strategic collaborations with prestigious academic and research institutions, including East China University of Science and Technology, Beijing Technology and Business University, and the Yantai Institute of Advanced Materials and Green Chemical Industry Technology (an affiliate of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences). Currently, it has also integrated and adopted advanced process technologies from South Korea. Through continuous digestion, absorption, improvement, development, and innovation, it has now possessed a relatively complete modern R&D theory and system, and mastered multiple proprietary R&D technologies and core independent intellectual property rights.
Since its restructuring in 2004, Huada Chemical has steadily implemented the "Produce Near Market" development strategy. While continuously upgrading the technological level of its Yantai headquarters plant, it has successively invested in building factories in areas where downstream customers are concentrated, such as Lishui in Zhejiang, Changshu in Jiangsu, and Xiao County in Anhui. Furthermore, It has also continuously built and improved an extensive and effective direct sales and distribution network nationwide. This has resulted in effective coverage of the key economic zones of the Bohai Rim and the Yangtze River Delta, and strong reach into the Pearl River Delta economic zone and inland regions.
