Technical support and financing

We provide certain technical and management expertise to help our suppliers to increase the material quality, while decreasing their cost. When necessary we are also capable of providing our suppliers with certain financial help to improve their cash flow.

The quality control

We complete the control of the material quality in mainly two aspects:Firstly, we persuade the suppliers to organize their production, refining, inspection, packing and transportation according to our requirement;Secondly, we randomly test the material received.

Crushing
