YONGZHOU, CHINA – August 29, 2026 – In the worlds of automotive design, aerospace engineering, wind energy, and shipbuilding, the prototypes, moulds, and inspection fixtures that bring ideas to life often rely on an unsung hero: high-performance polyurethane boards. Yongzhou Lihong New Material Co., Ltd. has spent nearly two decades perfecting these essential materials, evolving from a Guangzhou-based start-up into a national high-tech enterprise with products exported to more than 30 countries and regions.
Originally founded as Guangzhou Lihong Mold Material Co., Ltd. in August 2009, the company relocated to Yongzhou, Hunan Province in August 2022 and rebranded as Yongzhou Lihong New Material Co., Ltd. With a registered capital of 10 million RMB and a 6,000-square-metre facility in Ningyuan County's Circular Economy Industrial Park, the company has built a reputation for quality, innovation, and reliability that spans industries and continents.
A Track Record of Innovation
Lihong's journey is marked by significant milestones. In 2017, the company secured approval for 2 invention patents and 10 utility model patents, and was listed on the Guangzhou Equity Trading Centre (Equity Code: 891957). In 2022, it was recognised as an AAA credit enterprise, followed by national high-tech enterprise certification in 2023 and ISO 9001:2015 quality management certification in early 2024.
This consistent progression reflects a company that does not stand still. Lihong has continuously invested in R&D, developing a full range of polyurethane and epoxy resin boards that cover low, medium, and high densities, as well as varying hardness levels and physical properties.
Materials That Shape Industries
Lihong's product portfolio serves some of the most demanding applications across multiple industries:
-
Automotive Industry: Sheet metal fittings, prototype models, inspection fixtures, and tooling jigs.
-
Aerospace and High-Speed Rail: Lightweight, high-strength components for structural and interior applications.

-
Shipbuilding: Yacht and marine component moulds that demand superior water resistance and structural integrity.
The company's materials are designed to meet the exacting requirements of each application, offering consistent performance across temperature ranges, machining operations, and environmental conditions.
From Domestic Success to Global Reach
Lihong has successfully supplied its materials to major domestic projects in automotive sheet metal, FRP products, wind turbine blade moulds, and yacht manufacturing. The company has also established export business across Thailand, South Korea, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and South America, with export share steadily increasing.
This international footprint reflects Lihong's ability to meet global standards and compete with established suppliers in mature markets. The company's goal is clear: to exceed domestic competitors and meet international standards through patented technology and cost-effective products.
