What Hangzhou Ruijiang Chemical does

Hangzhou Ruijiang Chemical Co., Ltd., operating under the Ruichem brand, is a privately held Chinese manufacturer of titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigments and related chemical products headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Founded in 1992, the company runs an annual production capacity of 120,000 tonnes using both sulfate and chloride processes and produces a broad portfolio that spans rutile TiO2 grades (RC-635, RC-708, RC-901, RC-918, RC-919, RC-508, RC-758, RC-ET901), anatase TiO2 grades including food (RC-210), pharma (RC-220) and cosmetic (NA-121, S1-K1) variants, custom pigments (RC-301, RC-321, RC-322, RC-311), and an environmental PVC stabilizer line.

The company sells into coatings, plastics, inks, cosmetics, food, pharmaceutical, and electronics end-markets, claiming service to Fortune 500 and multinational customers. It has built a direct international sales network reaching approximately 60 countries, with established offices or warehouses in the United States and Germany and additional sales presence in Mexico, Turkey, Brazil, Colombia, India, Malaysia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, France, and Spain; it has been ranked among the top six Chinese TiO2 exporters for two consecutive years. International growth in Europe reportedly ran at roughly 20% even as overall Chinese TiO2 exports declined ~40% during the same period.

Ruijiang runs an in-house Technology Center (launched 2008) staffed by more than 30 R&D personnel, supplemented by university partnerships, and maintains regulatory certifications (E171, FDA, EP, USP, JP, ChP) that qualify its TiO2 for food, pharma, and cosmetic applications. With 500+ employees (over 90% with bachelor's degrees or above, including 10 foreign staff), the company is positioning itself for further international expansion, including planned entry into Brazil and exploratory activity in Thailand, backed by a 2015 strategic partnership with China Merchants Bank.
