Anhui Gurite and Anhui Ruibang Elastomers & Plastics simultaneously broke ground, jointly embarking on a new journey of high-quality development in the Year of the Horse.

As the spring tide surges, ushering in a new year, we spur our horses forward and set off on a fresh journey. At 9:10 a.m. on February 25, 2026, Anhui Gurite New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. and Anhui Ruibang Rubber & Plastic Additives Group Co., Ltd. simultaneously held groundbreaking ceremonies, sounding the rallying cry for a spirited new year of hard work in the Year of the Horse. This marks the start of a new journey dedicated to deepening our commitment to industry, pooling our strength in innovation, and enhancing quality and efficiency.

The atmosphere at the construction site was both enthusiastic and solemn. Employees from the two companies were full of energy and high spirits, standing in neat formation to jointly witness this momentous occasion.

At Anhui Gurite New Materials Technology Co., Ltd., Chairman Shao Jin led the employees in standing solemnly facing the national flag for a dignified flag-raising ceremony, during which everyone saluted respectfully. After the flag-raising ceremony concluded, Chairman Shao Jin delivered a speech marking the start of the new year, extending New Year greetings and best wishes to all employees, outlining the development goals for the coming year, and encouraging everyone to quickly refocus, unite their efforts, and wholeheartedly devote themselves with high enthusiasm and vigorous spirit to all tasks ahead.

At Anhui Ruibang Elastomer & Plastic Additives Group Co., Ltd., General Manager Xu Yumei also led the employees in a solemn flag-raising ceremony and delivered a speech, urging all staff to adopt the spirit of “starting with full throttle,” stay committed to their posts, strive boldly for excellence, and pursue practical and diligent actions, thereby jointly driving the company toward higher-quality development in the new year.

Anhui Ruibang Rubber & Plastic Additives Group Co., Ltd., a high-tech enterprise integrating production, R&D, and sales of rubber and plastic additives, has been steadily growing since its establishment in 1995. With over 30 years of experience in production management and solid technical expertise, the company has deeply specialized in fields such as anti-aging agents, composite zinc oxide, and adhesion antioxidants. It has become a strategic partner to numerous tire manufacturers. Both its testing center and technology center have successfully passed provincial-level acceptance inspections. Furthermore, the company has established long-term university-enterprise cooperation platforms with universities such as Beijing University of Chemical Technology, demonstrating its strong industry competitiveness and profound development foundation.

Anhui Gurite New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2019 through a joint investment by Ruibang Group and several other enterprises. It is a production- and R&D-integrated base built to the latest international standards. Relying on the technological expertise of Beijing University of Chemical Technology, the company and the university jointly established the “Joint Research and Development Center for Green Nanomaterials.” The company is deeply engaged in the field of green rubber and plastic new materials and is the first domestic technology enterprise whose primary R&D focus is on the production of recycled carbon black. Currently, the company has established core production capacities of 30,000 tons per year of granulated recycled carbon black, 10,000 tons of powdered recycled carbon black, as well as 5,000 tons of bio-based plasticizers, 5,000 tons of film release agents, and 5,000 tons of air barrier agents. Its products are widely used in various fields such as high-performance tires, coatings, and daily chemical products, and the company is committed to becoming a leading benchmark enterprise for green rubber and plastic new materials in China.

The simultaneous commencement of construction by these two companies is both a vivid demonstration of the Group’s collaborative development philosophy and an important step to seize development opportunities and pool synergies for growth. As the new journey of the Year of the Horse 2026 begins, these two companies will remain true to their original commitment to the real economy, focus on innovation and quality enhancement, and accelerate the implementation and realization of more high-end rubber and plastic新材料 products, thereby contributing their corporate strength to the local industrial and economic development.
