Sany Group: Chinese Technology Beyond Limits

It just started as a small welding shop in 1989. Now, Sany Group has grown to be a global company that produces heavy equipment and machineries such as wind turbines, port machineries, road construction equipment, pile driving machineries, cranes, excavators and other concrete machineries. Sany Group was founded by Yuan Jinhua, Mao Zhongwu, Tang Xiuguo and Liang Wengen.

Sany Group operates five industrial parks located in China, five manufacturing bases equipped with R&D facilities in Indonesia, Brazil, India, Germany and the US, and 21 sales distributors worldwide. The company employs close to 50,000 workers in over 150 countries worldwide.

The Group was listed by Financial Times among the world’s most valuable companies in its July 2011 list of FT Global 500. With a capitalization of $21.5 billion, the company was ranked 431^st. Sany became the first Chinese machineries and equipment company to make it to the FT Global 500 list.

Sany believes that the top priority for doing business is quality. Yearly, the Group spends about 5% to 7% of its revenues in R&D efforts. In fact, Sany attributes its expansion into wind energy machineries, excavators, pile drivers, port hoisting equipment and concrete road machineries to R&D.

In 2007, Sany made it to the Guinness Book of World Records twice when it developed concrete pump truck with the longest booms (66 meters and 72 meters). The record showed that China leads the technology of concrete pumping. Sany began mass-producing its concrete pump with the longest boom, so far, on September 19, 2011. It showed that the concrete pumping technology is limitless.

Aside from innovation, Sany is also committed to the best well-rounded and efficient service. This commitment is evidently shown by 15 logistics centers and warehouses of spare parts around the world.

Sany uses its advantages to advance and help build a better world.
