Research notes

Says it was established in 1986 and has three manufacturing bases; the Zhengzhou plant makes machine-tufted, printed carpet and carpet tiles. Claims over 5,000 workers and 15 million m² a year, with machinery from Germany, Britain and Belgium. A Chinese brand-ranking site names it among the drafters of China's national standard for tufted carpet. Why it matters: a candidate for the large mainland Chinese tufters that appeared after China's first domestic tufting machine (see ner-cn-dht200). Dates: company pages give 1986 and also "since 1997"; Zhengzhou vs Guangzhou entities may be different companies. Sources are company pages, supplier directories and a ranking site; treat as weak.
