Chinese mining equipment manufacturer learns to innovate

As the international mining industry has hit increasingly hard times, domestic heavy-duty equipment manufacturers have worked harder to explore fresh opportunities in the global market.

Dalian Huarui Heavy Industry Group, a company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, is pushing to win more contracts in international projects with large-sized State-owned enterprises.

It is in talks with 38 SOEs, including China Power International Development Ltd and China Railway Construction Group, said Shao Changnan, vice-president of DHHI, the biggest domestic manufacturer and exporter in the bulk materials handling machinery.
