The construction is expected to take 36 months, with an annual production capacity of 2,000 tons of high-performance carbon fiber (including T700-grade and higher-strength carbon fiber) and related products. The project aims to expand the production scale of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor, carbon fiber, and carbon fiber fabrics.
The expansion is driven by the continuous growth of downstream applications and rapidly increasing market demand. The company's current carbon fiber production capacity can no longer meet customer needs, limiting its advantages in technological innovation, quality improvement, and application development. Therefore, Zhongjian Technology urgently needs to expand production to enhance market responsiveness and supply reliability.
Zhongjian Technology’s main products are the ZT7 (performance exceeding T700-grade) and ZT9 (comparable to T1000/T1100-grade) carbon fiber series. The combined production capacity of ZT7’s Phase I and II projects is 420 tons, while Phase III (three 200-ton ZT9 production lines) has commenced operations and is ramping up to full capacity. The newly announced project is part of the company’s Phase IV expansion, with the new capacity surpassing its existing total production scale.
The flagship ZT7 carbon fiber series is already being supplied in bulk for advanced military equipment such as fighter jets, missiles, and satellites. Additionally, the company is working on domesticating pre-impregnated materials (prepreg) for the C919/C929 aircraft, targeting technical specifications comparable to Toray’s TORAYCA® series. If successful, carbon fiber usage per aircraft could increase from less than 1 ton to over 10 tons. A newly established subsidiary, led by a top-tier team, may collaborate closely with COMAC’s materials research division to upgrade from "material supply" to "integrated solutions."
In 2024, Zhongjian Technology reported revenue of 812 million yuan, a significant year-on-year increase of 45.39%, with net profit attributable to shareholders reaching 356 million yuan (up 23.16%) and adjusted net profit at 328 million yuan (up 31.85%).
Carbon fiber remains its core business, generating 552 million yuan in revenue (67.88% of total revenue), up 19.81% year-on-year, maintaining steady growth. Meanwhile, carbon fiber fabrics have emerged as a new growth driver, contributing 260 million yuan (32.05% of revenue), surging 160.43% year-on-year. The company’s primary customers are major domestic aerospace enterprises, with all products being high-performance carbon fiber and fabrics, predominantly used in aerospace applications.
On May 14, Zhongjian Technology disclosed that Huatai Investment, a shareholder holding over 5% stake, transferred 5.0927% (22.393 million shares) to Sinopec Capital at 29.12 yuan per share, totaling 652 million yuan. This marks the official entry of Sinopec as a "super" shareholder of Zhongjian Technology.
