The foreign trade volume of Ningbo accounts for about a quarter of the province's total. At the beginning of the new year, "Made in Ningbo" took the initiative to accelerate the development and layout of emerging markets, actively integrating into the process of globalization.
In the factory of Ningbo Taiji Environmental Protection Equipment Co., Ltd., workers are working hard to produce a batch of DS multiphase reactors and DS combustion purification heat recovery equipment. This is the company's first overseas order of the new year, which will provide a customized overall solution and treatment of "factory exhaust" for an industrial zone in Thailand.
According to Rao Wenjun, the market leader of the company, their independently developed DS multiphase reactor can reduce the concentration of sulfur dioxide emitted by industry from tens of thousands of milligrams per cubic meter to below 35 milligrams, meeting ultra-low emission standards. He said, "This project in Thailand covers an area of over 200 acres and is a project for metal recycling and comprehensive utilization of hazardous waste. It has extremely strict environmental requirements. After more than four months of hard work, our team has developed a complete solution from design, procurement, installation, and commissioning. We not only solved the problem of single point exhaust gas treatment for our clients, but also established a systematic control system for the entire industrial park
As a national level specialized and innovative "little giant" enterprise, Taiji Environmental Protection has independently developed flue gas desulfurization equipment and technology, with one foreign and more than 30 domestic invention patents. The company has successfully implemented more than ten environmental protection projects in Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand and other places. Shi Yuezhan, the general manager, said: "Over the years, we have been actively responding to the call of the country to explore emerging markets such as the joint construction of the" the Belt and Road ". In the first month of the year, we have four projects in progress. In particular, Southeast Asia orders have recently landed in succession. At present, our entire production plan has been scheduled to August, achieving a 'good start'."
Coincidentally, Ningbo Shenma Group Co., Ltd. also set its sights on emerging markets at the beginning of the new year. At present, the company is conducting repeated tests on its newly developed conductive material - copper aluminum eutectic, to meet the needs of overseas customers. Zhai Pixian, the head of the company's development department laboratory, said, "By replacing copper with our material, the overall cost can be reduced by 40% compared to copper materials. It is mainly used in bus ducts, distribution cabinets, new energy, and energy storage
The chairman of the company, Xu Yinchang, said that based on the current order situation, the sales of this new material are expected to increase more than twice year-on-year this year. "More than ten countries (customers) have already been contacted, including India, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Italy, as well as Indonesia and Malaysia. We are definitely confident
In 2025, the total import and export volume of Ningbo City will reach 1.46 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.6%, and maintain growth for 10 consecutive years. Pan Jie, the deputy chief of the statistics and analysis section of Haishu Customs under Ningbo Customs, said that since last year, the external environment has become more complex and severe, and the emerging markets have significantly driven Ningbo's foreign trade
The confidence of "Made in Ningbo" in expanding the market comes from continuous research and development and precipitation. Cixi Universal Electronics Co., Ltd. is a power cord manufacturing enterprise. Last year, they developed a power line automation intelligent assembly line equipment that integrates 16 processes, and also promoted this equipment worth more than 4 million yuan overseas, winning the favor of customers. General Manager Yu Chongwei said, "Just at the beginning of 2026, we have reached an agreement with our Austrian customer and will soon send two units over. In addition, customers from countries such as South Africa and Brazil are in talks and contact, and there is hope to reach an order soon
In order to assist enterprises in accelerating the layout of diversified markets, Ningbo has launched the "Ningbo Trade Global" exhibition and expansion plan. In the first quarter, it plans to organize 1400 sub enterprises and more than 2600 enterprise representatives to participate in internationally renowned exhibitions and emerging market exhibitions, covering advantageous industries such as electronics, textiles, home furnishings, machinery, stationery, etc. In addition, Ningbo has also established an international legal service center to provide legal consultation and foreign-related arbitration services for enterprises in international business disputes, safeguarding their overseas rights and interests.
Zhang Yangsong, Director of the Foreign Trade Promotion Department of the Ningbo Municipal Bureau of Commerce, said, "Emerging markets may have significant differences from our domestic counterparts in terms of laws, foreign exchange collection, and access, so we provide trade guidelines for these emerging markets. On the other hand, we have also strengthened cooperation with the Ningbo Branch of China Export&Credit Insurance Corporation, providing certain preferential support for insurance premiums to prevent trade risks
