What RAETTS does

RAETTS is a Chinese industrial equipment manufacturer founded in 2011 and headquartered in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, that specializes in energy-efficient blowers, compressors, and heat pumps based on proprietary air suspension and magnetic levitation bearing technologies. The company claims to be the first firm globally to master both bearing platforms and to have broken the international technology monopoly in this category. Its product portfolio spans air bearing blowers (7.5-300 kW), maglev turbo blowers (22-450 kW), maglev compressors for chillers and heat pumps, maglev centrifugal cooling chillers, high-speed centrifugal blowers (Explorer series), turbo compressors, and air knife drying systems. Core technical components include high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) with >97% efficiency in direct-drive configuration, active magnetic bearings enabling contactless rotor suspension, and aerospace-grade 3D impellers. The technology stack delivers 30-50% energy savings versus conventional roots blowers and multi-stage centrifugal blowers, with a 20+ year design life and oil-free operation. Primary applications are municipal and industrial wastewater treatment aeration, industrial pneumatic conveying, surface cleaning and drying, aquaculture aeration, and industrial process heating and cooling.

The company's business model is hardware-centric capital equipment sales with a quote-based pricing structure that incorporates site analysis, energy consumption calculations, piping layout, and customized engineering solutions. RAETTS operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise field sales with technical door-to-door investigations by engineering teams and a global network of exclusive distributors across more than 10 countries spanning China (multiple regional subsidiaries), Germany (European HQ with R&D and assembly), France, USA, Thailand, Malaysia, Spain, Russia, and Belarus. The company has served more than 10,000 enterprises globally across municipal wastewater, food and beverage, automotive, electronics, cement, paper, textile, glass, tobacco, and battery manufacturing verticals.

RAETTS is privately held, founded and led by General Manager Yanguang Wu, and listed on the Guangdong Equity Exchange Center (code 263782) since 2020. Headcount has grown from zero to approximately 200 employees, supported by a 50,000+ m² production base in Ganzhou with 25+ advanced processing and testing machines and 20+ R&D teams. The firm holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 10012 certifications, CE marking for European compliance, and has been designated as a National High-tech Enterprise and MIIT Energy Efficiency Star equipment provider. Recent strategic priorities include expanding the maglev chiller and heat pump product lines, growing international distribution, and participating in global industry events such as Hannover Messe.
