Zoomlion Celebrates 34th Anniversary, Highlights Innovation and Global Growth

Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd. celebrated its 34th anniversary on September 28 with global events. The company has evolved over 34 years from its initial focus on construction machinery to a diversified machinery manufacturer with a worldwide presence.

The company's anniversary was themed "Youth in Bloom, Horizons Beyond." The main event took place at Zoomlion's Smart Industrial City in Changsha, gathering company executives and employees. Employees from 22 countries sent congratulations in their native languages, marking a global acknowledgment of the company's milestone.

Zoomlion's journey began in 1992 in Changsha, launching its first product, the HBT40A concrete pump, into a market dominated by imports. By 1994, the company expanded its product line to 78 models across concrete machinery, construction cranes, and municipal engineering equipment.

The company pursued capital markets, listing A-shares in Shenzhen in 2000 and H-shares in Hong Kong in 2010. Over the years, Zoomlion expanded its business through acquisitions and organic development into areas such as foundation construction machinery, aerial work platforms, and mining machinery. International expansion accelerated in 2008 with the acquisition of CIFA in Italy. Today, Zoomlion operates 11 R&D and manufacturing sites outside China, with products sold in over 170 countries and regions.

International sales now account for nearly 60% of total revenue. Looking ahead, Zoomlion plans to further advance diversification, globalization, and digitalization, focusing on high-end machinery, intelligent technologies, and greener development. Investments in AI, robotics, and new energy technologies are planned to drive product development and better serve global customers.
