A Report from the Plastic Industry
At Kaifeng Jiuhong Chemical Co., Ltd, production workshops for products such as phthalic anhydride and specialty plasticizers stand tall. Technicians monitor real-time production dynamics via an intelligent central control system, while specialized tank trucks shuttle back and forth to transport the products. “The DCS control system enables fully automated management of the entire production process—effectively mitigating safety risks caused by human errors while automatically adjusting feed ratios and reaction temperatures, achieving a win-win scenario for both safety and efficiency” , explained a company official.
Kaifeng Jiuhong Chemical Co., Ltd. was established in July 2014, covering an area of over 1000 acres and employing more than 1000 people. After 10 years of development, 6 branch factories have been built, forming an industrial chain with industrial naphthalene, butyl octanol, and terephthalic acid as the source, and phthalic anhydride, 2-EH acid, resin, and series plasticizers as the core products.
After more than 10 years of development, the company has grown into a national high-tech enterprise and a national level specialized and new "little giant" enterprise, building a complete chemical new material industry chain with industrial naphthalene and phthalic anhydride as the source. The production of phthalic anhydride is the first in China, and the production of plasticizers is the second in China. The annual comprehensive production capacity exceeds 1.35 million tons, and the products are sold well both domestically and internationally. As the main enterprise in the chain, it has driven the rapid development of Kaifeng's fine chemical industry cluster.
While focusing on the quality of the industry, Kaifeng Jiuhong Chemical fully leverages its advantages in industrial chain synergy. By controlling subsidiaries such as Shanghai Chenghong, Kaifeng Yuhong, Kaifeng Ruihong, and Ningxia Jiuhong, it has achieved full chain control from raw materials to end products, forming a strong cost and technology synergy effect and becoming one of the few "integrated solution" providers in the industry.
