2009/02/25 | By Quincy Liang | ZHEJIANG ROADAGE MACHINERY CO., LTD.Founded in 1993, Zhejiang Roadage Machinery Co., Ltd. is an ISO 9001: 2000- and ISO/TS 16949: 2002-certified company that specializes in developing and manufacturing various kinds of truck and trailer parts. The firm's high-quality products are used mainly on European, American, Japanese, and South Korean trucks and trailers.
Roadage claims that its goal is to become an integrated, world-class supplier of a comprehensive range of trailer and truck parts. To accomplish the goal, the firm has been aggressively making every possible effort in product development and production-technique upgrading.
Currently, the firm supplies over 1,000 items in over one dozen series, including mainly manual slack adjusters, spring brake chambers, S-cam shafts and repair kits, brake shoes and repair kits, air brake valves, quick release valve assemblies, quick coupling assemblies, high-strength bolts and nuts, holders, nylon washer chains, etc.
As the world's largest manufacturer of slack adjusters, Roadage has an annual output of one million sets of trailer parts, of which about 80% are exported and 20% supplied to truck makers and tier-one truck parts suppliers in China.
The firm proudly claims that it is now the only Chinese slack adjuster manufacturer to have successfully penetrated the German market, demonstrating its superior quality and reliability. Most high-quality products made by Roadage come with a two-year guarantee. The firm's high-quality items are exported to several major markets in America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, etc.
Roadage currently has three bases in China, including a R&D and manufacturing base in Yuhuan of Zhejiang Province; an international business headquarters and logistics center in Hangzhou of Zhejiang Province; and the global truck/trailer parts and accessories manufacturing base in Quanjiao of Anhui Province. The three vital bases jointly form a golden triangle in the company's operation.
With the inauguration of the over-120,000-square-meter modern and integrated production plant at its Anhui base in 2007, Roadage claims that its revenue is expected to quadruple or quintuple by 2009. According to the company's ambitious development project worked out in 2006, Roadage aims to become a globally famous brand, or a leader of the pack by 2010.
Roadage's quality parts in over 10 categories are suitable for about 100 truck models of all major international nameplates, including BPW, Volvo, MAN, Scania, Mercedes-Benz, Universal, Meritor, Bendix, Hino, Nissan, Hyundai etc. The firm stresses that its core competitive advantage lies in the integrated development momentum achieved by constant investments in technical upgrading, constant innovation, know-how in self-development of products etc.
The highly internationalized parts/trailer parts maker has been developing more and more patented products and techniques worldwide, and its strength is also rapidly advancing to replace major counterparts, not only in quality but also in price competitiveness.
Roadage has set many records, including eight manual and two automatic slack adjusters produced per minute; five minutes for making an order become a production project; five minutes for a production project to translate into a procurement plan; only one minute for the warehouse to begin delivery of an item, etc.
