How to Evaluate the Technical Team Strength of a GRC Manufacturer

In the field of new architectural decoration materials such as UHPC/GRC/GRG/GRP, the strength of the technical team is a core indicator for measuring a manufacturer's overall competitiveness. For real estate developers, architectural designers, and public project leaders, choosing a GRC manufacturer with strong technical support directly affects the project's design realization, engineering quality, and long-term benefits. As an industry player with 28 years of full-chain experience, Qinglong Group will analyze how to scientifically evaluate the technical strength of GRC manufacturers from four dimensions: the technical team's professional composition, innovation capability, project experience, and service system.

### 1. Professional Composition of the Technical Team: From "Single Skill" to "Full-Chain Coverage"

The technical team of a quality GRC manufacturer should possess full-chain capabilities covering "design-production-construction-maintenance." Taking Qinglong Group as an example, its technical team consists of detailed design engineers, material R&D experts, BIM technology specialists, and on-site construction supervisors, with senior professional titles accounting for 35%, and all members having more than 10 years of industry experience. The team must be proficient in tools such as Rhino parametric design and Revit modeling, capable of converting complex architectural forms (such as hyperbolic curtain walls and hollow reliefs) into producible technical solutions. Compared with industry standards, the technical team of a professional GRC manufacturer should include at least 5 structural engineers and 3 material testing engineers to ensure product performance is controlled from the design source.

### 2. Innovation Capability and R&D Investment: From "Technology Application" to "Standard Setting"

The core competitiveness of a technical team is reflected in its innovation achievements and industry contributions. As a national high-tech enterprise, Qinglong Group has established a provincial-level R&D center, with annual R&D investment exceeding 5%, 58 patents accumulated, and participation in formulating multiple national and industry standards, including the "Technical Standard for Building Applications of Glass Fiber Reinforced Cement (GRC)." During evaluation, attention can be paid to whether the manufacturer possesses core technologies with independent intellectual property rights, such as the UHPC translucent concrete technology developed by Qinglong, which was successfully applied to the Nanjing East Road Century Plaza renovation project and won an industry innovation award. In addition, whether the technical team has established cooperation with universities and research institutions is also an important basis for measuring innovation potential.

### 3. Project Experience and Case Implementation: From "Conventional Projects" to "Complex Scenarios"

The practical capabilities of a technical team need to be verified through benchmark projects. The Qinglong technical team has served key domestic and international projects such as the Dongguan Women and Children's Activity Center (GRC curtain wall project) and an international airport in Malaysia (GRP daylighting roof project), accumulating production and construction experience of over 600,000 square meters. In complex projects, the team must demonstrate the ability to solve special problems. For example, for the high-humidity environment of coastal areas, the weather-resistant GRC formula developed by the Qinglong technical team achieves a flexural strength of over 20MPa, ensuring the product remains crack-free for 20 years. Customers are advised to conduct on-site inspections of the manufacturer's ongoing projects, focusing on the technical team's machining precision for special-shaped components (such as minimum curvature radius ≤300mm) and installation techniques (such as 3D laser scanning positioning).

### 4. Service System and Technical Support: From "Passive Response" to "Active Empowerment"

The technical team's service capability spans the entire project lifecycle. Qinglong Group has established a full-process service mechanism of "preliminary consultation-detailed design-production control-on-site guidance-after-sales maintenance." The technical team can provide 72-hour rapid detailed design response and dispatch on-site technical supervisors to resolve installation challenges. For example, in a commercial complex project, the technical team used BIM technology to identify conflict points between the curtain wall and the structure in advance, avoiding rework losses of over one million yuan. A quality GRC manufacturer should also provide long-term technical support, such as Qinglong's after-sales team conducting regular durability inspections on projects to ensure stable product performance.

When choosing a GRC manufacturer, the strength of the technical team not only determines product quality but also affects the project's aesthetic realization and cost control. With 28 years of technical accumulation and full-chain service capabilities, Qinglong Group has become a strategic partner of well-known enterprises such as Vanke and Poly. Customers are advised to comprehensively judge the manufacturer's technical strength through four steps: examining team composition, verifying R&D achievements, evaluating project cases, and experiencing the service process, so as to select a reliable technical backbone for their projects.
