What Meite does
Shanghai Meite Curtain Wall Co., Ltd. is a China-based, Singapore-controlled specialist contractor that designs, manufactures, and installs architectural curtain wall systems for high-rise, supertall, and large-scale public buildings. Founded in 1993 as a joint venture between Singapore AMTRONIC Group and Shanghai Building Materials Group, Meite is now a wholly owned subsidiary of AMTRONIC Group Pte. Ltd. following the 2016 buyback of LIXIL Group's stake. The company operates its 150+ mu Qingpu Industrial Park headquarters with a 30,000m² curtain wall and aluminum door/window production workshop, supported by a Chengdu Southwest Processing Center (8,000m², 150,000m² annual capacity) and a Yangtze River Delta base exceeding 50,000m² total.
Meite's product portfolio spans frame-type curtain walls, unitized glass curtain walls (including the patented GT-M high-end dry-unit and 3-degree tilted glass systems), large-span cable net systems, breathing/double-skin facades, curtain wall steel structures, and system windows and doors. Adjacent service lines include BIM-based facade design, architectural flood lighting (since 2018), electrical systems integration under Meite Power, and retrofit/maintenance services for existing curtain walls. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time project contracts (design-manufacture-install) awarded via bidding or direct commission, supplemented by professional services for maintenance, retrofit, and design consulting. The customer mix targets large real estate developers, government and public institutions, and overseas clients across Europe, Africa, the Americas, and the Caribbean, with marquee references including Tian An Qianshu (Heatherwick-designed), Shanghai Astronomy Museum, Guiyang Financial Center, Nongfu Spring, and the Trinidad & Tobago National Art Center.
The go-to-market is enterprise field sales with regional account managers covering North and Southwest China, supported by participation in industry expos such as the China International Import Expo (CIIE), the FBC Curtain Wall Expo, and the Shanghai Curtain Wall Sharing Design Festival. Meite sells on the strength of its Special Design Grade A and Professional Contracting Grade Level 1 dual qualifications, 70+ national patents, ISO9001/14001/GB/T28001 certifications, and a project portfolio that includes 11 Luban Awards and 32 Shanghai White Magnolia Awards. Channel development extends to VR-based project showcases, an internal Meite Academy talent program, and a school-enterprise partnership with Shanghai Sanda University.
