The global automotive industry is accelerating its low-carbon, intelligent transformation, while China's automotive industry is shifting from scale advantages to leadership in both technology and supply chains. In 2025, the NEV penetration rate in China exceeded 50%, driving upgrades in automotive materials such as aluminum, steel, and magnesium and triggering a surge in demand for lightweight new materials. Coupled with the implementation of the EU carbon tariff, low-carbon transformation across the industry chain is imminent. As the 15th Five-Year Plan begins and the dual-carbon drive deepens, the industry urgently needs a professional platform to resolve material technology challenges.
Against this backdrop, will be held on September 10-11, 2026 in Shanghai, SMM, together with co-title sponsor-Guangdong Hongjin New Materials Group Co., Ltd., cordially invites industry peers to attend and drive the in-depth evolution of the automotive supply chain toward green, lightweight, intelligent, and globalized development.
Click to attend; we look forward to meeting you at the event.
Focusing on Cast Aluminum Alloy for 30 Years
, Guangdong Hongjin New Materials Group has been deeply engaged in the cast aluminum alloy field for 30 years, takes "Casting the Future" as its development vision, is anchored to the core mission of "becoming a high-quality partner for the global automotive supply chain," and is a leading aluminum-based new materials enterprise at a 10-billion-yuan scale, integrating R&D, large-scale production, and one-stop support services.
1. Industrial Layout and Capacity Strengths
The group has established a complete industry chain in South China, Central China, and East China, with 10 modern production sites and 2 provincial-level new materials research institutes. As of 2025, the group's annual capacity for green and low-carbon aluminum alloys exceeded 1.5 million mt. Its proprietary direct molten aluminum supply service can cover clients within a 200-kilometer radius, providing all-inclusive turnkey support throughout the melting and casting process, significantly reducing energy consumption and production costs for downstream die-casting enterprises, and helping the industry chain cut carbon emissions and improve efficiency.
2. Robust R&D to Tackle Core Material Challenges in Integrated Die Casting
The company has established a dual research institute R&D system, with Huajin New Materials Research Institute and Nantong Hongjin New Materials Research Institute, and works closely with Central South University, Shandong University, Jilin University, Nantong University, Chalco Materials Research Institute, and top-tier automakers to jointly build an industry-academia-research cooperation platform. It has independently developed a series of new aluminum alloy materials with high thermal conductivity, high electrical conductivity, high strength and toughness, and high wear resistance, and many products have been commercialized. The heat-treatment-free aluminum alloy material for large-scale integrated die casting of NEVs has been successfully developed and certified by OEMs, and is fully ready for mass production, directly addressing the core pain point of NEV body lightweighting.
The company holds dozens of aluminum alloy material patents, offers a full range of general-purpose die-casting alloys under standard grades such as ADC12, A380, AC46000, A360, ADC10, AISi12, A356, B39H, ALSI10MNMG, and ALSI7CUMG, and has also launched dozens of proprietary patented high-end alloy grades, including HJ03, HJ05, HJ05A, HJ06, HJ08, HJAM-05, HJ-GD08, HCS09, HJ09A, HJ09B, HJ12, HJ13, HJ15, HJ16, and HS330, covering the needs of different lightweight parts.
3. Comprehensive Qualifications and Green Low-Carbon System
The enterprise has successively obtained a full set of automotive industry system certifications, including ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001, and ISO 50001, completed carbon footprint and greenhouse gas verification, and is advancing the development of ESG and ASI sustainable aluminum standards, aligning with global automakers' low-carbon procurement requirements and fully addressing EU carbon tariff trade barriers.
4. Global High-Quality Customer Matrix
Hongjin New Materials' aluminum alloy products are widely used in NEVs, 5G communications, 3C electronics, low-altitude aerospace, general machinery, and other fields. The company has been a long-term, stable supplier to leading domestic and overseas companies, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Tesla, BYD, NIO, XPeng, Xiaomi, Geely, CATL, and DJI, and is also a designated qualified material supplier for Google and Amazon, with a mature and complete global supply system.
