GUANGDONG HUATE GAS

What GUANGDONG HUATE GAS does

Guangdong Huate Gas Co., Ltd. is a Foshan-headquartered, STAR-Market-listed (688268) specialty industrial and electronic gas manufacturer founded in 1993. The company produces approximately 200+ gas products spanning industrial gases (O2, N2, Ar, CO2), electronic specialty gases (Si2H6, CF4, C4F8, C2F6, SF6, ClF3, B2H6, SF4), photolithography laser gas mixtures, high-purity noble gases (He, Ne, Kr, Xe), medical gases, and calibration gases. Its core technology stack centers on purification of high-purity and rare gases, photolithography gas-mixture formulation, gas analysis/detection, and specialty cylinder/valve surface treatment — including proprietary photolithography gas mixtures that hold dual certification from both Dutch lithography leader ASML and Japan's GIGAPHOTON, a status unique among Chinese gas suppliers. The company operates 20+ wholly-owned subsidiaries across Guangdong, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Shaanxi, Hubei, Hunan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand, and exports to 50+ countries.

Huate monetizes primarily through B2B direct sales of gas products on a transactional basis, supplemented by specialty-gas equipment sales, engineering services, and integrated one-stop gas application solutions (including customized on-site supply schemes). Pricing is determined via customer-by-customer quotation rather than public list prices. Customer coverage spans the semiconductor value chain (covering 90%+ of China's 8-inch-and-above IC fabs), display panels, photovoltaic, LED, medical/scientific research, food and transport, petrochemical, and laboratory/university end-markets. The customer base includes SMIC, TSMC, Intel, Samsung, SK Hynix, YMTC, Hua Hong, BOE, Huaxing, Jingao, Trina, JCET, Huawei HiSilicon, and equipment leader ASML.

The business model is vertically integrated: from upstream gas purification and mixture formulation, through midstream specialty cylinder treatment, to downstream direct delivery and on-site gas applications engineering. The founder Shi Pingxiang handed operational leadership to a second-generation team — Chairman Shi Sihui (daughter, who drove digital/ERP reform) and General Manager Fu Zhuhong (a 20-year specialty-gas technical veteran). Capital-allocation momentum has tilted toward inorganic expansion (acquisitions of Dongguan Gaoneng in 2022, AIG in Singapore in 2022, and 100% of Hebei Derui in late 2025) and organic capex (RMB 112M new HQ/R&D center broke ground in March 2025; a new Jiangsu electronic chemicals base broke ground in December 2025).
