On May 9, representing the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB), Shanghai Allmark Information Technology Service Co., Ltd. officially held the CSA W47.1 Certification Award Ceremony for Jiangsu Zhenguang Electric Power Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Jiangsu Zhenguang”) in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province. Liu Zongkun, Chairman of Jiangsu Zhenguang, Chen Zhihua, General Manager of Shanghai Allmark, and representatives from both teams attended the event to witness this important milestone.

Obtaining CWB certification marks that Jiangsu Zhenguang has possessed steel structure welding and manufacturing capabilities in compliance with Canadian national standards. It has met the threshold for participating in Canadian steel structure projects in terms of welding quality management, high-level staffing, and manufacturing process control. During the event, both sides held in-depth strategic exchanges on cooperation in Canadian steel structure projects, application of North American standards, and subsequent overseas expansion.

Zongkun Liu, Chairman of Jiangsu Zhenguang, Joshua, General Manager of Shanghai Allmark, and other representatives from both parties attended the CSA W47.1 Certification Award Ceremony.

Based on Jiangsu Zhenguang’s strategy of deeply developing the North American market, as well as Shanghai Allmark’s outstanding understanding of North American standards and rich project experience, the two parties formally reached an intention to establish a comprehensive strategic cooperation.

Going forward, Shanghai Allmark will rely on full-cycle one-stop services including project consultation, personnel training, project management, system assurance, and inspection & testing to provide professional technical compliance support and fully escort enterprises going global.

Sixty Years of Expertise in Power Steel Structures: Jiangsu Zhenguang Accelerates Layout in the North American Market

Founded in 1966, Jiangsu Zhenguang has long focused on the R&D and manufacturing of transmission line towers, steel pipe towers, substation structures, and large-scale industrial steel components. Over six decades, the company has deeply participated in numerous key domestic power engineering projects, accumulating extensive experience in production, project management, and quality control.

Leveraging its profound technical accumulation and manufacturing expertise in China, Jiangsu Zhenguang has kept pace with the global infrastructure wave and set its strategic sights on the broader international arena. In recent years, with the continuous growth of global energy and infrastructure construction demand, the construction of Canadian LNG projects, energy terminals, ports, and modular industrial facilities has been advancing steadily. The North American market has become a key overseas focus for more and more Chinese steel structure manufacturers. Seizing this opportunity, Jiangsu Zhenguang is fully accelerating the implementation of its overseas strategy and in-depth layout of the North American market.

After the certification ceremony, representatives of both sides posed for a group photo.

Focus on CWB Certification: The Entry Requirement for the North American Steel Structure Market

CWB certification is a mandatory requirement and threshold for Chinese steel and aluminum structure welding and manufacturing enterprises to enter the North American market, and is recognized as one of the world’s highest-level certification standards for general steel structure welding. Passing this certification fully indicates that a manufacturer has reached top international standards in personnel professionalism, welding manufacturing level, welding system, and other dimensions.

For Chinese steel structure enterprises planning to deeply participate in Canadian projects, obtaining CSA W47.1 Certification is not only a ticket to the North American market, but also means that the enterprise has the basic conditions to carry out high-quality steel structure manufacturing and cooperate with large international projects in accordance with Canadian standards.
