United for Prosperity

Zhejiang Cowin Fastech Co., Ltd. was founded in 2011. Current total territory is 130 acres (about 86,700m2). The company is located at Jiashan Ganyao industrial park in Zhejiang province, which is the most prosperous core area of eastern China. S32 highway is just next to the plant as well as G60 highway and high-speed railway which all bring great delivery & transportation efficiency when serving all the tier-customers.

It is mainly aiming at R&D, manufacturing and sales of high-end fasteners, especially for automotive, industrial equipment and construction machine industries. Tens of brand-new facilities have been imported to produce high-precision fasteners. Cowin has started the mass production since April this year and is expected to have 500 tons/month of production until the end of this year. It also targets to reach 1,200 tons/month by next year. The aim of Cowin is to have products made in China to replace expensive foreign imported products in the future.

General Manager London Yang says that Cowin integrates all processes including raw material, forming, threading, machining, heat treatment, electroplating, optical sorting and auto-packing, and all the manufacturing processes are controlled in house which not only control the quality and lead time, but also provide customers with high quality products.

At the initiation of Cowin, Yang set 4 goals for company development in the future.

1. To develop a world-class, high-end fastener plant To cultivate the spirit of continuous improvement, self requirement, self innovation, and self upgrade based on 5 factors concerning competitiveness including quality, lead time, technology, cost ,and service to keep pace with the top manufacturers worldwide.

2. To realize a“happiness enterprise” To build up a constructive cycle consisting of the satisfaction of customers, suppliers, stockholders, and employees to fulfill the ideal of corporate sustainability. That is the happiness enterprise for Cowin.

3. To create an“eco-factory” With the newly built factory, we try to eliminate the stereotype that “factories are always dirty and gloomy” and re-think about linking the buildings and nature together so that we can create a “green” manufacturing environment.

4. To build a“low-carbon”green industry The designs of natural lighting, natural ventilation, solar power generation, and so on. all exhibit the spirit of Cowin to become a green industry with a sense of environmental protection, responsibility, energy saving, low carbon, and earth loving.

Considering the future, Yang plans to focus on the automotive fastener industry in the 1st phase, grip the core technology, introduce key processing, and train more talents. Then, in the 2nd phase, Cowin will gradually develop toward the sectors of aerospace and biomedical industry, expecting to achieve a win-win situation.
