Its core portfolio spans hydraulic torque wrenches (square-drive, low-profile, and hollow-piston variants), hydraulic and electric/pneumatic torque wrench pumps, bolt tensioners including subsea models, hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic pullers, and calibration/test equipment. The company integrates digital and connected features — servo motor electronic torque control with ±3% accuracy, Bluetooth-enabled smart sockets, explosion-proof intelligent pumps (EXDⅡBT4 / IP55) with MES connectivity, and 7-inch industrial LCD interfaces — and holds 39 patents and 15 intelligent manufacturing certifications, with annual R&D investment exceeding 5M yuan.
The company serves primarily heavy-industry B2B customers in wind energy (including offshore), steel/metallurgy, and petrochemical/oil & gas, with secondary verticals in shipbuilding, power generation, railway (including sleeper manufacturing), and rubber. Named blue-chip customers include Vestas, Envision Energy, Yunda Wind Power, CGN, Baosteel, Magang, WISCO, Hengli Petrochemical, Yangzi Petrochemical, Zhenhai Transfar, Dalian Petrochemical, and Lanzhou Petrochemical. Revenue is generated through direct enterprise sales and project-driven relationships; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. WREN maintains a global footprint via sustained participation in major industry exhibitions (CIPPE Beijing, CWP, PTC Asia, IPA Indonesia, Xinjiang Petrochemical, Karamay Oil) and exports to Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. Marketing and lead generation rely on these trade shows, a bilingual corporate website (wrenchina.com), and WeChat/Douyin content distribution. Manufacturing is concentrated at a ~26,000 m² Hangzhou production facility supported by 260+ employees, R&D collaborations with four Chinese universities, and university-linked research institutes.
