I. Overview of the New Plant
Recently, the Jiangmen new plant (Guangdong Tasu Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd.), under Dongguan Tasu Industrial Co., Ltd., officially commenced operations. As a critical step in the company’s strategic expansion, the plant was constructed on self-acquired land in 2022 and has undergone comprehensive upgrades. It is dedicated to becoming a globally leading intelligent rubber injection equipment manufacturing base. Located at No. 2-2A1-2, Putang Development Zone, Shuanghe Town, Heshan City, Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, the new plant covers an extensive area, with a planned total footprint of 50 acres. The first phase is already operational, while the second phase remains under planning. The first phase includes office spaces on the first and second floors, production workshops on the first floor, and a rest and negotiation area on the third floor, laying a solid foundation for high-efficiency production.
II. Full Production Plan for 2025
This year, the Jiangmen plant will achieve full-scale production. By then, the facility will focus on high-end, customized, and eco-friendly manufacturing, filling the gap in the Asia-Pacific market for advanced rubber molding equipment. This timeline not only demonstrates Formosa Plastics’ precise understanding of market trends but also reflects the company’s confidence and strategic vision for future growth.
III. Core Business Upgrades
(1) Fully Automatic Rubber Injection Machines
One of the core businesses of the Jiangmen plant is the production and sales of fully automatic rubber injection machines. These machines are widely used in shoe soles, automotive seals, small rubber products, and other fields, supporting multi-material (RB/TPR/TPU/EVA/rubber foam) composite injection. Through continuous technological innovation, Formosa Plastics’ rubber injection machines offer significant advantages in energy savings, time efficiency, and labor reduction. With doubled single-mold output, low energy consumption, and high stability, they greatly enhance production efficiency and product quality.
(2) Supporting Services
In addition to the equipment itself, the Jiangmen plant provides comprehensive supporting services, including process design, mold development, and smart factory transformation solutions. This one-stop service model aims to address customers’ end-to-end challenges from product design to production, further solidifying Formosa Plastics’ leading position in the industry.
IV. Production Capacity Planning and Future Development Goals
In 2024, Formosa Plastics’ annual production capacity exceeded 100 units, and by 2025, this number is expected to surpass 200 units. Through continuous technological investment and market expansion, the company has set a target of capturing over 30% of the global high-end rubber injection equipment market by 2028. Additionally, Tasu plans to aggressively expand into premium European markets, such as Germany and Italy, to realize its international ambitions.
V. Technological Breakthroughs and R&D Investment
Tasu has always regarded technological innovation as a key driver of corporate growth. Moving forward, the company will increase its R&D investment to 8% of total revenue, focusing on breakthroughs in critical technical challenges such as rubber critical foaming and multi-color rubber injection. Leveraging 17 patented technologies, including its self-developed cold runner system and dual-servo synchronous control, Tasu has already helped customers reduce energy consumption by 43%, driving the industry toward greener practices.
VI. Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development
While pursuing economic benefits, Tasu actively fulfills its social responsibilities. The company implements a “zero workplace injury” safety management standard to ensure employee health and safety. It has also invested in advanced pollution treatment facilities to minimize energy consumption and waste emissions, protecting the ecological environment. Through intelligent transformation initiatives, Tasu has assisted over 200 small and medium-sized footwear manufacturers in upgrading their operations, creating more than 1,000 jobs and boosting annual industry chain output by RMB 200 million.
VII. Conclusion
The launch of the Jiangmen plant marks a new phase of growth for Formosa Plastics. With cutting-edge technology and superior services, the company will continue to lead innovation in the rubber injection equipment industry, providing global customers with more efficient and sustainable solutions. We firmly believe that, through the collective efforts of all Tasu employees, the company will achieve new milestones and create even greater value for society.
