In the golden autumn month of September, flowers bloom in vibrant clusters across both north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, filling the air with the festive spirit of the 70th anniversary of the autonomous region's establishment. It is a moment brimming with glory and promise, as Khorgos adds another vibrant chapter to its industrial landscape. On September 25, the production workshop of Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry Co., Ltd., located in the Southern Industrial Park, came alive with the steady hum of machinery as it officially began trial operations.

Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry Co., Ltd. Production Workshop

Walking into the production workshop, the intelligent assembly line operates smoothly and efficiently, as raw materials undergo multiple processes to gradually take shape. As a high-tech enterprise dedicated to the research and development and manufacturing of premium-grade pipelines, Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry specializes in developing and producing innovative, eco-friendly, flexible, and reinforced composite pipelines (RTP/TCP) tailored for applications in sectors such as oil, natural gas, and hydrogen energy. These next-generation pipeline products boast remarkable market potential. Featuring exceptional resistance to high temperatures, high pressures, and extreme corrosion, they also offer enhanced convenience in transportation, installation, maintenance, and replacement—while delivering superior safety and durability. With cutting-edge technology and products that are globally leading, the company primarily serves domestic markets, particularly the oil and gas fields in Xinjiang, while simultaneously targeting the Central Asian and Middle Eastern markets.

Chen Yuanhong, an engineer at Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry Co., Ltd., said: "We have now installed a multifunctional RTP pipeline production line, which is currently in the trial-production phase. Once fully operational, the annual output will reach 600 kilometers."

Last May, the company completed its registration and establishment; by July, it had successfully acquired the land. In September, all preliminary tasks—including planning, design, and approval—were finalized, officially kicking off the project's construction. From a barren plot of land to a bustling factory complex filled with towering structures and roaring machinery, it took just over a year. The 20,000-square-meter standard factory building is spacious and bright, featuring neatly arranged intelligent equipment. Meanwhile, the 6,000-square-meter office building is soon set for renovation, equipped with fully functional areas such as employee workspaces and cutting-edge R&D labs.

Zheng Zhiyong, Chairman of Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry Co., Ltd., said: "After officially commencing production, we expect the first-phase two production lines to achieve an annual output exceeding 1,000 kilometers, generating a value of approximately 350 million yuan and creating more than 50 jobs. We remain firmly committed to our investment strategy and scale in Horgos—it’s an excellent location for investing, starting a business, and fostering employment."

In recent years, Horgos has leveraged the institutional innovation advantages of Xinjiang's Free Trade Pilot Zone to continuously deepen its "delegation, regulation, and service" reform. It has introduced service initiatives such as "one-enterprise, one-policy" and "full-process assistance," providing enterprises with end-to-end support—from project approval and land supply to construction and production. During the advancement of the Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry Project, the Horgos Investment Promotion Service Center and relevant departments proactively reached out to the company, helping it tackle challenges ranging from land-use planning and construction permits to equipment importation. This seamless support allows businesses to focus entirely on construction and long-term growth.

Zheng Zhiyong said: "Our investment in Horgos benefits from the 'hardness and height' of our 'five exemptions and five reductions' policy, the 'width and breadth' of our access to Central Asian and Middle Eastern markets, the 'depth and strength' of government services and support for businesses, the 'brightness and speed' of local social development and infrastructure progress, as well as the 'warmth and enthusiasm' of the local people. Thanks to these favorable conditions, our company is on track to meet the expected project milestones, giving us even greater confidence. Moving forward, we will step up and accelerate our investment efforts, striving to make an even greater contribution to the region's socio-economic development!"

The successful trial production of Xinjiang Zhengliang Pipe Industry is not only a significant milestone for the company’s development, but also another fruitful achievement as Horgos vigorously promotes the real economy and actively integrates into the construction of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt. Moving forward, Horgos will further strengthen its industrial foundation, earnestly implement the "41633" business environment system, continuously enhance its level of opening up to the outside world, and demonstrate greater contributions in supporting the nation’s strategy of opening up toward the west.
