The 2026 target for China's economic growth rate and a more proactive fiscal policy orientation clearly convey the positive expectation of policy continuity, stability, and economic resilience, "said Mark Mann, President of Grundfos Group China, in an interview with our reporter." China's sustained and stable development environment provides rare long-term opportunities for multinational enterprises. We not only regard China as a sales market, but also as a key pillar of global strategy related to industrial layout, supply chain system, and research and development innovation. "Walking into Grundfos Group's high-end manufacturing factory in Changshu, Jiangsu, the automated production line operates efficiently. This factory, which will be put into operation in 2024, is one of the most sustainable and energy-efficient production bases for this Danish pump manufacturer in the world. As early as the 1990s, Grundfos set its sights on China and established a factory in Suzhou, becoming one of the earliest European companies to settle in Suzhou Industrial Park. Afterwards, the company continued to expand its investment layout in China: in 2005, it established a research and development center, second only in scale to its headquarters in Denmark; In 2024, the Changshu high-end manufacturing project with a total investment of about 100 million US dollars will be put into operation, with an intelligent low-carbon factory area of nearly 35000 square meters. For over 30 years, we have not only achieved significant growth in China, but also actively participated in its development and construction, contributing to people's access to sustainable water resources. ”Macron stated that China's proposed "dual carbon" target has established an predictable development path and enhanced the confidence of enterprises in their development. "This is also the reason why we have made large-scale investments and built advanced green factories in Changshu. In Macron's view, China's comprehensive advantages in manufacturing capacity, innovation density, and market size constitute an unparalleled ecosystem, deeply influencing Grundfos' long-term development strategy. "The high-quality application scenarios nurtured by the Chinese market, such as data centers, zero carbon parks, smart buildings, industrial energy efficiency upgrades, etc., have strong traction and become the best testing ground for verifying, iterating, and leading the next generation of water and energy technologies." The continuous release of China's super large market potential brings new development opportunities for Grundfos. Macron stated that China's urbanization process and the construction of a unified national market have given rise to complex and standardized application demands; The wave of consumption upgrading is continuously driving the dual pursuit of comfort experience and energy efficiency in commercial and civil construction, medical and other fields. During the 15th Five Year Plan period, Grundfos will further seize the new growth opportunities brought by China's green transformation and technological innovation. "We firmly believe that China is not only the growth engine of Grundfos' business, but also an important driving force for promoting global technological innovation," said Mark Man. (New Society)
