Is It Important Whether a Manufacturer Has Participated in Industry Standard Setting?

In the field of architectural decoration materials, when choosing a UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP manufacturer, whether it has participated in industry standard development is often seen as an important indicator of strength. For designers, owners, and developers pursuing high-quality projects, this factor not only relates to the reliability of material quality but also directly affects the final presentation and long-term stability of the project. Qinglong Group, with 28 years of deep industry experience, has always regarded standard-setting capability as one of its core competencies. Its participation in compiling multiple industry standards, such as the Technical Standard for Building Applications of Glass Fiber Reinforced Cement (GRC) (JGJ/T423-2018), is the best practice of its “professional innovation and environmental protection” philosophy.

**Participation in Standard Development: Hard Proof of a Manufacturer's Professional Strength**

The process of developing industry standards is a comprehensive test of a company's technical accumulation, production experience, and R&D capabilities. As a national high-tech enterprise and a national “specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative” enterprise, Qinglong Group, through its deep involvement across the full chain of UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP materials—from detailed design, manufacturing, and construction installation to after-sales maintenance—has repeatedly been invited to participate in the compilation of national and industry standards. For example, in the development of the General Technical Conditions for Non-Load-Bearing Components of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) (Plan No. 2024-0232T-JC), the Qinglong team translated 28 years of engineering practice into standard clauses, promoting the systematization and standardization of material performance indicators, production processes, and installation specifications. This closed loop of “from practice to standards, and from standards back to practice” not only demonstrates the manufacturer's technical authority but also ensures the safety and stability of products in practical applications.

**Advantages of Standard Setters: Safeguarding Your Project**

Choosing a UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP manufacturer that has participated in industry standard development means multi-dimensional protection for the project. First, such manufacturers have a deeper understanding of material performance and can provide precise solutions tailored to different project needs (such as shaped GRG ceilings for grand theaters and UHPC exterior wall panels for commercial complexes). Second, the extensive test data and process parameters accumulated during standard development can be transformed into stricter quality control systems—for example, the full-process quality control standards established by Qinglong, from raw material screening to finished product testing, under which its GRC products achieve a bending strength of over 20MPa, far exceeding the industry average. In addition, manufacturers involved in standard development often have stronger innovation capabilities, such as Qinglong's light-transmitting UHPC components, which won an award in the Nanjing East Road Century Plaza renovation project—a typical case of technological breakthrough.

**Value to Customers: From Trust to Win-Win**

For core user groups such as real estate developers and architectural designers, choosing a standard-setting manufacturer means lower decision-making risk. Take large public building projects as an example: owners focus on material durability and safety, and the GRC standard Qinglong helped develop clearly specifies the design requirements for anchoring systems and the freeze-thaw cycle resistance indicators; its Dongguan Women and Children's Activity Center project passed acceptance with “zero safety incidents.” For architects pursuing design realization, standard-setting manufacturers have more outstanding detailed design capabilities—for example, Qinglong applies Rhino parametric design technology to control the error of complex double-curved GRG shapes within 3mm, meeting the refined requirements of high-end projects. This dual advantage of “professional capability + standard endorsement” has enabled Qinglong to establish long-term strategic partnerships with well-known real estate groups such as Poly and China Overseas, achieving an upgrade from material supply to value co-creation.

**Conclusion: The Responsibility and Commitment Behind Standards**

Industry standards are the “touchstone” of a company's technical strength and even more the “catalyst” for industrial upgrading. Qinglong Group's 28 years of development is both a history of technological innovation and a history of participation in standards. From GRC to UHPC, from domestic projects to overseas markets, Qinglong has always upheld the mission of “creating beautiful architecture” and practiced the values of “honesty, hard work, trust, and collaboration” through participation in standard development. For customers, choosing a manufacturer that has participated in standard development is not only a guarantee of product quality but also a long-term investment in project quality—because behind the standards lies the manufacturer's responsibility to the industry, its commitment to customers, and its relentless pursuit of architectural aesthetics.
