As we commemorate the 20th anniversary of thyssenkrupp nucera‘s® China office, let’s journey through two decades of remarkable achievements and pioneering innovations that have solidified our status as industry frontrunners. It all began in 2004 when we launched Chlorine Engineers Shanghai (CES), driven by a vision to infuse cutting-edge technology and superior service into China’s thriving market. From our inception, the path has been one of dynamic growth, transformational milestones, and relentless pursuit of excellence.

The office’s early days were marked by a rapid ascent. The year 2006 saw CES clinching its first monumental contract with Ruyuan, a significant milestone that laid down a robust foundation for our flourishing operations in China. This achievement paved the way for the expansion, and by 2009, CES had reached an extraordinary milestone, surpassing 1 million tons in contracts within the Chinese Chlor-Alkali (CA) market. This astonishing feat underscored the capability to handle large-scale projects and reinforced our reputation for dependability and superior quality.

 

CES made a bold leap onto the international stage by securing its first overseas project APP OKI. In 2015, the inauguration of the Befar NaCl-ODC plant showcased our technological prowess, aligning us with the industry’s evolving demands and setting the stage for future innovations.

 

Fast forward to 2015, and we entered a strategic joint venture that broadened our horizons and enhanced our service offerings. This collaboration was pivotal in boosting our growth trajectory and extending thyssenkrupp nucera China’s global footprint.

The wave of innovation continued with us being awarded three APP overseas EP projects in 2019. The next year, the unveiling of the Jiahua latest version of the BiTAC electrolysis technology further highlighted our adaptability and resilience in a fiercely competitive environment.

 

A significant turning point came in 2022 with the rebranding from thyssenkrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers to thyssenkrupp nucera. This transition was not merely a change of name but a reflection of our renewed dedication to excellence and innovation, coupled with an ambitious vision for the future. By synchronizing esteemed values and global reach, we positioned ourselves for sustained success and growth.

As we revel in this remarkable anniversary, we take immense pride in our recent accomplishments. In October 2024, the SEEC 4th project successfully started, amplifying our capacity and showcasing our adeptness at navigating complex client needs.

 

Throughout its vibrant history, thyssenkrupp nucera in China has been guided by an indomitable spirit of innovation and an unwavering pledge to offer solutions that exceed client expectations. As we look to the horizon, we remain steadfast in our mission to push technological and service boundaries, ensuring our continued leadership in the chemical engineering sector.

 

In conclusion, the past two decades have been an extraordinary journey of growth and transformation for thyssenkrupp nucera’s  China office. All of the above achievements stand as a testament to the hard work, innovation, and dedication of our team. As we celebrate this milestone, we eagerly anticipate building upon our successes and embracing new opportunities that will propel our growth and success in the years ahead. Here’s to many more decades of innovation, excellence, and collaboration!
