Visit of Pakistani Business Delegation to ANNEC

  On November 22, 2023, ANNEC welcomed Mr. Baloch and members of a Pakistani business delegation for a visit and inspection. Mr. Baloch's company has seven subsidiaries globally, holding significant market shares in the fields of steel metallurgy and equipment manufacturing in countries such as Pakistan, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The purpose of this visit is to leverage ANNEC's advanced hot blast stove technology and innovative capabilities to jointly expand into the fields of steel, non-ferrous smelting, and hydrogen metallurgy in Pakistan and neighboring countries.

  Accompanied by the General Manager of the Group's Marketing Company, Wang Panfeng, the delegation toured the company's headquarters, research and development center, and exhibition hall. Mr. Wang introduced the delegation to ANNEC's research and development platform, team, testing equipment, and the company's "Four Acceptances and Fifteen Points Inspection" product quality traceability management system. He emphasized ANNEC's twenty years of development and innovation, core technology, and product applications. ANNEC has been deeply involved in technological innovation and market promotion of hot blast stoves of blast furnace and high-temperature new materials, providing global steel companies with high-temperature, long-campaign, and low-energy consumption hot blast stove technology, products, and services, receiving recognition and appreciation from customers both domestically and internationally. Subsequently, the two parties engaged in in-depth discussions in the meeting room on topics such as green, energy-efficient, long-lasting refractory configurations, and intelligent refractory manufacturing in the global steel industry. The guests expressed strong agreement with ANNEC's technological innovation and development philosophy, offering best wishes for the upcoming launch of the ANNEC Industrial Park in Luoyang.

  The Pakistani guests expressed that the construction of infrastructure in any country relies on refractories. Their visit to China as a "pioneer" is to learn from experiences, seek opportunities, and anticipate collaboration. China's "Belt and Road" initiative has provided new impetus for global economic growth and brought new opportunities for economic and industrial development in various countries worldwide, with Pakistan being a beneficiary. ANNEC, actively practicing the "Belt and Road" initiative, provides advanced technology and professional services in high-temperature industries such as steel and non-ferrous metals to countries along the route. The hope is to strengthen cooperation for mutual benefit and win-win outcomes.

  As a pioneer leading the energy-saving, low-carbon emission, and green development of hot blast stoves of blast furnace, ANNEC never stops on the path of innovation. They consistently strive to drive the technological development of hot blast stoves of blast furnace and the advancement of high-temperature new materials, using technological innovation to serve the steel industry. ANNEC's goal is to contribute to global steel companies in achieving "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" with efficient, low-carbon emission, and environmentally friendly blast furnace hot blast stove technology. At the same time, ANNEC actively explores new areas in the high-temperature industry, researching new processes, and developing new materials, aiming to become a vigorous and unwavering service provider in the global high-temperature industry.
