Chairman of Cubic, Dr. Youhui Xiong, Chairman of LOPE, Mr. Chengjie Deng, Controlling shareholder of Jingding Electric, Mr. Rixin Lai, along with the management teams of the three companies, attended the event. Mr. Qi Wang, director of the Utilization Committee and Gas Heating Committee of China Gas Society of China Civil Engineering Society, was invited to witness the signing ceremony.

The signing ceremony was hosted by Mr. Zhiqiang Liu, the General Manager of Cubic. Prior to the signing, Mr. Xiangjun Kong, the Vice General Manager of Cubic, provided an insightful background on the strategic investment collaboration. Thereafter, Dr. Youhui Xiong, the Chairman of Cubic respectively signed strategic investment cooperation agreement with Mr. Chengjie Deng, Chairman of LOPE, and Mr. Rixin Lai, Controlling shareholder of Jingding Electric. According to the terms of the agreement, Cubic will acquire 57.14% equity of LOPE and 51% equity of Jingding Electric by both capital transfer and capital increase.

Director Qi Wang witnessed the signing ceremony and delivered a speech,

 "Currently, in the wall-mounted gas boiler industry, the trend of leveraging sensor technology for intelligent upgrades and applying full premixed condensing technology to improve thermal efficiency and reduce pollutant emissions is becoming increasingly evident. Cubic will fully utilize its advantages in gas sensor technology to rapidly expand its business landscape in the full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boiler industry. It is worth looking forward to its collaboration with LOPE and Jingding Electric, which will contribute significantly to development of the industry."

According to data released at the annual conference of the Chinese gas heating industry, the market inventory of wall-mounted gas boilers in China exceeds 34 million units, with over 10 million units aged over 8 years and approximately 5 million units aged between 10 and 15 years. As a result, there is a significant prospective market for replacement. Additionally, the majority of wall-mounted gas boilers in Chinese are of the direct gas-fired type, characterized by low combustion efficiency and high emissions. Condensing wall-mounted gas boilers, with inventory of around 2.3 million units in China, only account for 7% of the total, leading to an urgent need in China to transition to development of new high-end full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boilers.

Leveraging its gas sensor technology platform and the technical and industrial accumulation of its core management team in the field of combustion science and technology, Cubic has established a post-doctoral R&D team from 2022 and initiated the development of low-carbon thermal technology based on gas, aiming to build an industrial ecosystem for residential, commercial, and industrial gas boilers with sensors, actuators, and controllers as the core supply chain.

Currently, Cubic has made breakthroughs in the R&D of gas sensors for new types of full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boilers, as well as in direct current brushless fans and intelligent gas combustion controllers, earning recognition from the experts within the industry. Simultaneously, experimental facilities have been established for key components including gas proportional valves, gas burners, and heat exchangers for full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boilers, and Cubic have initiated business negotiations for cooperation with Chinese core component supply enterprises.

Through the strategic investment, Cubic aims to integrate resources related to stainless steel heat exchangers, burners, gas proportional valves, variable frequency direct current brushless fans, gas sensors, intelligent gas combustion controllers, and other components involved in full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boilers, establishing a "sensor-actuator-controller" one-stop supply chain solution in this field.

Dr. Youhui Xiong, Chairman of Cubic, stated during the signing ceremony,

“LOPE has become one of the few enterprises globally capable of mass-production of stainless-steel condensing heat exchangers after seven years of hard work, leveraging international scientific and technological resources. Jingding Electric, with nearly two decades of experience in the gas proportional valve field, is an important standard drafting or participating member in the China gas appliance industry. Cubic possesses significant technological and industrial advantages in gas sensors, gas metering, and intelligent gas controllers. By leveraging the significant industrial opportunities and the expansive, cohesive domestic market fostered by the 'low-carbon' goals, their tripartite collaboration and deep cooperation are set to powerfully accelerate the evolution of China's full premixed condensing wall-mounted gas boiler sector towards premium branding.”

Zhongshan LOPE Thermal Technology Ltd.

LOPE is currently the only Chinese stainless steel full premixed condensing heat exchanger manufacturer that has imported international advanced equipment and technology.
