Haifeng’s Founding Story: From Polyurethane Equipment Manufacturing to Global Projects

Founded on a manufacturing heritage dating back to 1986, Haifeng has grown from building individual polyurethane machines to delivering complete production lines and global projects.

Concept of equipment development from compact liquid dosing to automated polyurethane production

Zhejiang Haifeng Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. (Haifeng Polyurethane Machinery) is not simply an equipment trading company. It is a technology-driven manufacturer built on polyurethane equipment manufacturing. Starting with the technical roots of Dongfeng Plastic Machinery Factory, founded in 1986, Haifeng spent four decades growing from individual machines to complete-line solutions and from serving domestic customers to serving global markets.

It is a technology-driven manufacturer built on polyurethane equipment manufacturing. Over four decades, Haifeng has grown from individual machines to complete-line solutions and from serving domestic customers to serving global markets.

In 1987, Haifeng’s founder developed China’s first polyurethane continuous foaming machine and sole molding machine, filling a gap in the industry. In 1995, China’s first polyurethane foaming machine using combined inverter and microcontroller control was completed. The following year, Haifeng developed its first generation of needle-valve polyurethane dispensing heads and obtained a patent. In 1999, the company established an in-house CNC machining center and an ISO 9001 quality system. In 2000, the first polyurethane testing machine configured with a servo motor and microcontroller was delivered to Huafon Group. In 2002, the second generation of needle-valve polyurethane dispensing heads was developed and patented. In 2011, Haifeng developed China’s first servo- and PLC-controlled polyurethane casting and foaming machine. The company developed polyurethane external color chips in 2014 and introduced an IoT remote module in 2019, beginning the connected-equipment era.
