According to a post on the official WeChat account of Taizhou High-Tech Zone, the Sanfu Heavy Industry high-end marine equipment manufacturing project officially broke ground on March 26 at the Taizhou Port Industrial Park.
The Sanfu Heavy Industry High-End Marine Equipment Manufacturing Project is designated as a major project in Jiangsu Province for 2026. With a total investment of 1.6 billion yuan, the project will occupy an additional 185 mu of land. Construction will focus on steel structure production facilities, auxiliary office buildings, and various supporting infrastructure, with a total floor area of approximately 60,000 square meters. The project targets core areas of green and intelligent marine equipment, introducing high-end equipment such as digital welding systems and large gantry cranes to establish a lean and intelligent production system.
Once the project is completed and put into operation, it will establish a core production capacity of 200,000 metric tons per year in the processing of high-end ship section modules and 1,000 sets of high-end marine auxiliary equipment. It is projected to generate annual invoiced sales of 2 billion yuan and generate 84 million yuan in new tax revenue, thereby injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the regional economy.
Taizhou Sanfu Heavy Industry Group was founded in 1985 and officially registered in May 2009 with a registered capital of 800 million yuan. The company specializes in 10,000-ton-class multi-purpose heavy-lift vessels.
It is worth noting that the high-end marine equipment manufacturing project that has now broken ground is funded by Sanfu Heavy Industry, with project implementation handled by Taizhou Sanfu Ship Engineering, a subsidiary of Sanfu Heavy Industry.
According to the official website, Taizhou Sanfu operates two state-of-the-art shipbuilding bases—the Yong’an and Kouan facilities—both equipped with 10,000-ton-class outfitting berths. The company has constructed a total of seven assembly slipways and is equipped with hundreds of lifting devices, with a maximum lifting capacity of 900 tons. It is capable of undertaking the construction of various types of vessels up to 120,000 deadweight tons, including container ships, multipurpose vessels, oil tankers, chemical tankers, bulk carriers, tugs, offshore engineering vessels, and various types of barges.
