Recently, Shandong Province Science and Technology Agency announced the list of 2011 Shandong engineering and technological research center building program. Hixih’s subsidiary Aneng’s “Shandong Rubber Hose Engineering Technology Research Center” is among them.

Shandong engineering and technological research center building program is put forward by Shandong Technology Agency to further strengthen the establishment of scientific and technological innovation platform and actively promote the development of strategic new industries, it sets higher demand toward the support unit’s technology research and development, management and other aspects. The selection of rubber hose engineering technology research center is a full recognition of Aneng’s technological level and comprehensive strength.

Now the rubber tube market is more and more competitive. In face of the enormous pressure and broad market prospects, Aneng vigorously implement technological innovation and takes independent innovation on the first priority of business’s development, establishes advanced R & D platform, equips with high-quality research team which including Yangtze Rive Scholars, Mountain Tai Scholars, PhD Supervisors and experts from U.S.A and Brail who have outstanding concepts, skills and innovative abilities. In addition to these unique advantages, Aneng also is Asia's largest manufacturer of rubber conveyor belt and is currently China's most advanced high-pressure hose manufacturer. Technology center will relies on the existed conditions to continuously strengthen communication in the industry and promote the production of rubber tube to develop in direction of innovative, high value-added and high export-oriented economic.

Shandong rubber tube engineering technology research center based in Shandong and even the country’s rubber hose industry, while inherits and optimizes the traditional rubber tube technology, it also introduces and makes innovation of new technologies and develops and promotes new products. Establishment of the research center is consistent with the demand of national "12th five year plan" and plays a positive role in promoting the high-tech industries, especially for projects in the field of rubber research and the continuous upgrading and replacement of products and industry technology. At the same time, it can further enhance the cooperation between businesses and universities, accelerate scientific and technological achievements transformation and industrialization, increase market-oriented role of common technology research and development and promote leading industry’s technological innovation ability.
Next, with the aid of the platform of rubber tube engineering technology research center, Aneng will increase research efforts, carry out technical innovation to develop more world-leading and market friendly high-tech products.
