The project for the production of specialty PTMEG and furfural C5 bio-based fine chemicals by Shanghai Diyang Chemical was signed and established in Leshan. Recently, a signing ceremony for this project was held in Wutongqiao District by the local government and Shanghai Diyang Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. Chen Linqiang, Secretary of the District Party Committee, and Zhang Qiuming, General Manager of Shanghai Diyang Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., attended and delivered speeches. Tang Guochen, Deputy Secretary of the District Party Committee and Head of the District Government, and Wang Bao, Chairman of Beijing Hongkun Baoli International Hotel Investment Co., Ltd., were present. Wei Liang, Deputy Secretary of the District Party Committee, presided over the meeting. In his speech, Chen Linqiang extended warm congratulations on the successful signing of the project. He said that Shanghai Diyang Chemical is a leader in the field of fine chemicals, possessing numerous proprietary intellectual properties and key manufacturing techniques. The company’s strategy of combining research and development with production aligns well with Wutongqiao’s goal of developing new forms of productivity based on local conditions. As a well-known old industrial base in Sichuan, Wutongqiao has received approval for the establishment of a Class D chemical industrial park, and is making every effort to develop itself into a green chemical industry hub in the western region. The 2.5 billion yuan investment project will help create a complete green industrial chain, providing strong support for the development of industrial clusters worth hundreds of billions of yuan. Wutongqiao will continue to make good use of the \"elite team\" mechanism, act as diligent facilitators and service providers, create a first-class business environment, and ensure that projects are launched, completed, and put into operation as soon as possible. Zhang Qiuming expressed his gratitude to Leshan City and Wutongqiao District for their strong support of the project. He explained that the company has been focusing on the field of fine chemicals for nearly 20 years, possessing core technologies as well as comprehensive capabilities across the entire production chain. The choice to settle in Wutongqiao was driven by the area’s abundant resources, well-developed circular industry ecosystem, and high-quality government services. The project under this agreement will leverage the company’s technical strengths, combined with local support facilities, to establish a leading domestic production base for specialty PTMEG, thereby filling the gap in the high-end market. Once the project is launched, it will adhere to the principles of green and low-carbon development, accelerate construction progress, strengthen local cooperation, and contribute to the establishment of Leshan as a hub for innovation in green chemistry.
