Deepening Overseas Markets and Demonstrating Intelligent Manufacturing Strength | CITICIC Reaches Cooperation Intent for White Mud Rotary Kiln Project with Russian Clients

Recently, a delegation of high-quality Russian clients visited CITICIC for on-site inspections and specialized business negotiations. General Manager Mr. Johnson Ji and Foreign Trade Department Director Ms. Emily Xu, along with the core technical, production and foreign trade teams, accompanied the delegation throughout the visit. Both sides conducted comprehensive and in-depth technical and business exchanges regarding the white mud rotary kiln project, successfully reaching a clear cooperation intention. This marks a further step in CITICIC's deep cultivation of the Russian market for high-end energy-saving and environmentally friendly equipment, opening a new chapter of mutually beneficial cooperation between Chinese and Russian industries.

As a core global producer of softwood pulp, Russia has a large-scale pulp and paper industry, with an urgent need for the resource utilization of white mud solid waste generated during production. White mud, mainly composed of calcium carbonate, can be converted into recycled quicklime through high-temperature calcination in a rotary kiln, realizing the recycling of papermaking chemical raw materials. It can also be processed into high-value-added building materials and fillers, making it a key link in the green and circular development of the papermaking industry. As a core piece of equipment in alkali recovery systems, the rotary kiln for white mud is crucial for ensuring energy conservation, carbon reduction, and resource recycling in paper mills, with broad market application prospects.

At the business meeting, the CITICIC team comprehensively showcased the company's overall strength, encompassing its deep industry experience in equipment manufacturing, production capacity of large-scale precision machining equipment, a complete rotary kiln core product system, and mature technology R&D, comprehensive quality control and one-stop after-sales support system. This demonstrated the company's competitiveness and brand strength to the client.

During the technical exchange meeting, our technical team provided professional and customized solutions to address the client's core questions regarding equipment customization design, production processes, material standards, cross-border logistics and project implementation details. These solutions precisely matched the needs of the Russian project, earning high praise from the client.

Subsequently, the client delegation visited the CITICIC's production plant, touring the three major production plants for Heavy-Duty Complete Equipment, Hydraulics and Electrical Control. They meticulously examined core production processes such as large-scale welding, CNC machining, and precision casting and rigorously inspected the precision and craftsmanship of core components such as kiln shells, girth gears, kiln tires and support roller assemblies. The client fully affirmed CITICIC's stringent production standards, stable product quality and mature manufacturing processes, while also clearly outlining detailed requirements for subsequent production and delivery, laying a solid foundation for project implementation.

This on-site visit and in-depth discussions effectively solidified the foundation for cooperation between the two parties. The client clearly expressed a strong desire to expedite project implementation and pursue long-term, in-depth cooperation. Moving forward, CITICIC will continue to uphold its commitment to craftsmanship and quality, rigorously controlling every detail of the production process, empowering overseas clients with high-precision, highly reliable, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly equipment and superior technical services. Simultaneously, it will continue to cultivate the high-end markets in Russia and overseas, leveraging its technological and manufacturing advantages to deepen international economic and trade cooperation, expanding its global industrial layout with high-quality products and a reliable reputation, and writing a new chapter of mutually beneficial international development.
