Company Introduction

In an era of booming new material industries, one company started from Wuqing, Tianjin, and over the past fifteen years has consistently focused on fine chemicals. With technological innovation as the core driver and green development as a clear direction, it has gradually become a leading enterprise in the domestic waterborne additive field——Tianjin Hi-Perferal Advanced Materials Co., Ltd. (referred to as “Hi-Perferal“). Since its establishment in July 2010, Hi-Perferal has defined its core positioning as “focusing on R&D, production, and sales of fine chemicals“, dedicated to providing high-performance material technologies for industrial and daily applications. As a recognized high-tech enterprise, the company not only demonstrates strong credentials but has also achieved steady progress across various performance indicators. As of December 2024, total assets reached 2.24 hundred million RMB, with nearly 150 employees, forming an integrated “R&D + production + sales“ operational system. To further enhance production capacity and market influence, Hi-Perferal established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Panjin, Liaoning——Liaoning Saifei Chemical Co., Ltd. Through coordinated development across these two locations, the company effectively fills the production layout gap in the northern market, providing solid support for expanding into downstream sectors such as petroleum and mining.

In the competitive arena of fine chemicals, Hi-Perferal’s product portfolio precisely aligns with market demands, covering multiple high-value areas. Among these, the petroleum unit corrosion inhibitor series is considered a “guardian of industrial pipelines“, including corrosion inhibitors for oilfield wells and pipelines, water injection systems, acidizing treatments, as well as neutralization and high-temperature corrosion inhibitors for refining units. These products are designed to address equipment corrosion challenges in oil extraction and processing, helping ensure safe operations in the energy industry. Mining metal extraction aids focus on the new energy sector, with oxime extractants and lithium-ion extractants widely used in hydrometallurgical copper production and lithium extraction processes, providing key technical support for lithium battery raw material supply.

In the field of waterborne additives, Hi-Perferal has set an industry benchmark. The company’s developed acetylenic diol surfactants, dispersants, and defoamers offer reliable performance and meet environmental requirements, and are widely applicable in architectural coatings, photovoltaic materials, new energy batteries, and semiconductors. Thanks to solid product quality, these products have reached over 30 countries and regions, making Hi-Perferal a preferred partner for many international brands.

Notably, Hi-Perferal consistently integrates “green manufacturing“ throughout its development process, actively practicing sustainable development concepts through technological innovation. The production base in Panjin, Liaoning, is built according to Industry 4.0 standards and incorporates a full-process intelligent management system. Here, 5G technology is deeply integrated with industrial production, improving production efficiency by over 30%, maintaining a consistently high product pass rate, and reducing water, electricity, and gas consumption by 15% compared to conventional factories through precise resource control, thereby helping reduce environmental impact.

The company has obtained ISO 9001 quality management, ISO 14001 environmental management, and ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management certifications, laying a solid foundation for green development from a management perspective. In terms of market expansion, Hi-Perferal has built a sales system characterized by “comprehensive domestic coverage and extensive international reach“. Domestically, the company has set up sales offices in major cities such as Tianjin, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, forming a sales network covering North, East, and South China, enabling quick response to customer needs in downstream industries such as architectural coatings, automotive coatings, and photovoltaic chemicals. Internationally, through participation in global industry events like coatings exhibitions, the company continues to enhance brand awareness, with products exported to Europe, Southeast Asia, South America, and other regions.

Leveraging a deep understanding of customer needs, Hi-Perferal also provides customized application solutions. For example, to address specific requirements of photovoltaic enterprises, the company’s R&D team can quickly complete formulation adjustments and sample testing, supported by comprehensive after-sales service, earning long-term trust from key customers, with a repeat purchase rate maintained at above 85%.

Underpinning Hi-Perferal’s steady growth is its robust corporate culture. The company adheres to the mission “to provide high-performance material technologies for the development of human production and life“, with “working to advance human production and life“ as a core value, encouraging employees to actively explore advanced materials and drive industrial upgrades. In talent development, Hi-Perferal offers a dual-track approach of “technical training + career advancement“, regularly organizes technical exchange activities with universities and research institutes, and has established an innovation reward fund to recognize employees who propose technical improvement ideas. In a positive work atmosphere, an open and inclusive environment enables the R&D team to dare to experiment and innovate. In recent years, the company has filed multiple invention patents annually, with several technological achievements filling domestic gaps.

Conclusion

After fifteen years of journey, Hi-Perferal has grown from a startup in Tianjin into an innovative model in the fine chemicals field. Going forward, with the continued prosperity of new energy and semiconductor industries, the company will uphold the development philosophy of “innovation, green, and sustainability“, delve deeper into waterborne additives and solid electrolyte materials, further expand domestic and international markets, and steadily advance toward the vision of “becoming a world-class high-performance material technology enterprise, a respected organization, and a high-tech company of which employees are proud“, injecting more “Chinese strength“ into the global new materials industry.
