In recent days, *Rubber & Plastics News*, a U.S.-based weekly publication, unveiled the 2018 ranking of the Global Top 50 Non-Tire Rubber Product Manufacturers. Zhongding Group, which first secured a position within the top 20 in 2016, has further advanced its standing to rank 13th globally.
Zhongding is home to a nationally accredited enterprise technology center, an academician workstation, and a postdoctoral research station. It occupies a leading position in the industry in domains such as formulation technology and mold manufacturing. Notably, in recent years, the group has steadfastly pursued an internationalization strategy: through the introduction, digestion, and absorption of advanced technologies and processes from Europe and the United States, as well as the vigorous importation of cutting-edge industrial equipment, its competitive advantages in the industry have been further consolidated. For ten consecutive years, Zhongding has ranked first in the domestic industry across key metrics including sales revenue, foreign exchange earnings from exports, total profit, and market share of its core products. Looking ahead, Zhongding will continue to deepen its focus and drive
innovation in its core business of automotive components, adhere to the strategic direction of new energy vehicle development, and continuously expand into high-end product segments, with the goal of emerging as a first-class system integration service provider.
