Ms Lifang Chen chairwoman and CEO of Sutor commented that “As a result of Ningbo Zhehua’s efforts to strengthen its capability of providing customized products and services for end customers, the company is able to gain access to more municipal projects related to water supply, waste water treatment and recycling of treated water. The recent series of bid wins of water transportation related projects demonstrated our success in product upgrading and in the company’s efforts to address heightened concerns on environmental issues in China.”

Accordingly, Sutor’s operating subsidiaries, covering fine finished steel and steel pipe businesses, are undergoing a transformation in order to take advantage of the fast growing green industry. In addition to providing products for water-related projects, Sutor is striving to expand its market share in the air filtration and purification industry by supplying qualified fine finished steel products to relevant equipment manufacturers. We believe the versatility of our products and our commitment to meet market demands will enable us to significantly increase our competitiveness in the long term.”
