The company operates two production bases located in Hefei (headquarters) and Lvliang, with a combined annual specialty carbon black production capacity of 34,000 tons and a product portfolio organized into four primary categories: high coloring, medium coloring, low coloring, and conductive carbon black. Sub-brands include BeaBlack®, PowCarbon®, JetBlack®, and Preo®, with application-specific grades developed for coatings, inks, plastics, conductive materials, insulation systems, and pre-dispersions used by manufacturers across construction, automotive, industrial, electronics, packaging, and battery supply chains.

The company's technology foundation is built on furnace-process carbon black production, structured proprietary evaluation methods, and CNAS-accredited laboratory testing capabilities. It holds 40+ patents, has developed 200+ application formulas, and has led the development of 6 national standards for the carbon black industry in China. Recent product launches at CHINAPLAS 2026 include grades targeting modified plastics (BeaBlack/PowCarbon® 2879F), eco-friendly pipes (BeaBlack® 20P/30P), automotive coatings (Preo® F), and lithium-ion battery conductive systems (PowCarbon® CT16, CT19).

The business model is direct enterprise sales of physical carbon black products to industrial manufacturers, complemented by technical services including application formula adjustment and verification. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, CNAS laboratory accreditation, and Ecovadis sustainability certification. Products are exported to over 80 countries, with go-to-market driven by direct sales outreach via phone/email, corporate website lead capture (ahbcms.com), and active participation in international trade exhibitions such as CHINAPLAS.
