On August 26, 2022, Cao Lubao, member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee, visited Suzhou Baolidi Material Technology Co., LTD. In the enterprise exhibition hall, Mr. Xu Yiming, chairman of Polaridi Company, made a detailed introduction of the enterprise for Secretary Cao Lubao.
After detailed understanding of the core technology, product application and development trend of the company, Secretary Cao Lubao hoped that the company would target the high-end application market, strengthen cooperation with universities and scientific research institutes, increase research and development efforts, and introduce more high-performance and high-quality products.
City leaders Pan Guoqiang, Cha Yingdong, Xiangcheng District and the relevant departments of the city are mainly responsible for comrades to participate in the research.
Suzhou Baolidi Material Technology Co., Ltd. is an enterprise focusing on the development, production and sales of fiber masterbatch. The company is located in Xiangcheng District, Suzhou City, founded in 2002, now has two production bases in Suzhou and Siyang. As a leading enterprise in the fiber masterbatch industry, the annual production capacity of Polaridi fiber masterbatch reaches 37,000 tons, and since 2011, the annual output of Polaridi fiber masterbatch has continued to rank first in the industry.
Fiber masterbatch, as the core raw material for the coloring of chemical fiber stock, has outstanding environmental characteristics. Compared with the traditional printing and dyeing methods of chemical fiber, the use of stock liquid coloring technology can omit most of the dyeing and finishing processes, thus saving a lot of labor and energy in production, and reducing waste gas and wastewater discharge. As a high-tech enterprise in Jiangsu Province, a functional masterbatch engineering technology research center in Jiangsu Province, and a Jiangsu enterprise technology center, Politi has industry-leading scientific and technological level and product formulation advantages in the fiber masterbatch industry. At the same time, as a postdoctoral innovation practice base in Jiangsu Province, Politi has made full use of the resource advantages of "industry-university-research" cooperation, reached a strategic cooperative relationship with Donghua University, and established an industry-university-research and development base. At present, Politi has accumulated a number of technical patents and successfully developed more than 100,000 product formulations, which can meet the diverse needs of different customers.
At present, with the gradual completion of the project and the gradual release of production capacity, the company's original production bottleneck will be eliminated, and the company's new round of production capacity will be released. With the power of the capital market, the development of Polaroid has entered a new track.
▲▲ New Polaroid factory
As a key project to continue to promote Xiangcheng Economic Development Zone, the new factory project has been completed and put into operation. The new factory covers an area of about 37 acres, and is committed to building a world-class chemical fiber masterbatch production base.
Polaroid has the following advantages:
First, intelligent, through the production process
In the intelligent central control room of the new factory, the screen can display various parameters in real time, such as daily output, shipment volume, order quantity and other data, and the status of each machine in the 32 production lines of the workshop is clear at a glance.
▲ Intelligent central control platform
The intelligent central control platform not only realizes real-time monitoring of equipment, but also sets parameters. After the parameters are set, the equipment in the workshop can automatically feed and produce.
The automation system of the production workshop can realize automatic batching, from raw material storage to sorting, and then to production and packaging, all can be automated. Hundreds of raw material varieties, hundreds of different raw material formulations can be produced every day with just a little manual mixing.
▲ Intelligent sorting robot in the warehouse
▲ Production workshop
▲ Some products
Second, research and development innovation, promote product iteration
The various chemical fiber masterbatches produced by Politi company have different effects, there are color masterbatches for chemical fiber coloring, and functional masterbatches that give chemical fiber various functions (such as antibacterial, heating, flame retardant, etc.), and the form is also solid and liquid two kinds.
In order to ensure that products can continue to meet customer needs, the new factory has set up a Polaridi Functional Materials Research Institute and built a special R & D laboratory, covering design, proofing, testing and other links.
▲ Research Institute
As the materials required by the market are constantly updated, Polaroid continues to develop and innovate. At present, the research institute of Polaroid Company has set up research groups for various market needs, among which: the research and development of waterproof masterbatch is already in progress.
▲ Some research and development equipment
Third, scale, to achieve cost reduction and efficiency
On the side of the new factory, the second phase of the project is under steady construction and is expected to be completed and put into use in 2023.
The second phase of the project is under construction
The new factory has been put into use by Polaroid Company is expected to increase the annual capacity of 40,000 tons, but with the continuous expansion of the enterprise market, the production workshop and warehouse area of the new factory is still small. The second phase of the project will supplement the production workshop and warehouse, and connect with the existing new factory through the corridor, scale, to achieve cost reduction and efficiency, automation system will also be fully applied to achieve digital management.
▲ Renderings after the completion of the two phases
In recent years, on the basis of consolidating the existing leading position in the industry, Polaroid has continued to make progress and focus on layout in terms of product depth and market breadth. In terms of product depth, through continuous research and development in the field of liquid masterbatch, the company has mastered the liquid dispersion technology of pigment auxiliaries, and successfully developed liquid masterbatch related customers such as Sateri (Jiujiang) Fiber Co., LTD. In addition, through the active exploration of different application fields of color masterbatches, the company is gradually expanding into the "non-fiber" field. At present, the company has made major breakthroughs in automotive injection molding, PET film, PE artificial turf and other fields, and has accumulated relevant customers.
In terms of market breadth, the company has stepped out of the comfort zone of industrial clusters in the traditional "Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions", and continues to expand and strengthen the service radius of the domestic market with Jiujiang, Jiangxi as its base. In addition, by setting up a Turkish subsidiary, the company actively goes abroad and faces the world, opening up a new chapter for the development pattern of enterprises. Polaroid will eventually strive to grow with the help and support of more and more investors and concerned people. Live up to the love of all parties, bigger and stronger!
