Useon Technology Limited

What Useon Technology Limited does

Useon Technology Limited (USEON), founded in 2008 and headquartered at No. 38, Wenchang West Road in Nanjing, China, designs and manufactures polymer extrusion machinery for compounding, foam extrusion, recycling, and sheet and film production. Its core technology platform centers on co-rotating twin-screw extrusion, offered across the U+, SAT, EC, and TDY series, complemented by single-screw, triple-screw (SAT-T, up to 82% filler loading), tandem, and lab-scale extruders, with maximum throughput of 60 T/hr on polyolefin compounding and 3,000 kg/h on CO2-foam XPS lines. The product portfolio also extends to underwater, strand, and water-ring pelletizing systems, an Intelligent Extruder Control System, devolatilization units handling 5–85% solvent content, and dedicated production lines for PET foam core (wind/aviation/rail), PLA and EPS beads, BOPET film, POE/EVA solar encapsulation film, UHMWPE battery separator film, and spunbond/meltblown nonwoven lines. USEON serves enterprise customers across petrochemical compounding, foam extrusion, plastic recycling, sheet/film manufacturing, new energy, and nonwovens in 70+ countries, with a reported installed base of 230+ XPS foam board production lines and approximately 900 customers globally, including Owens Corning, Beijing Beipeng, ShenZhen Taisu, and Shandong Shenghe.

USEON operates a project-based B2B hardware-sales model with custom engineering and turnkey line integration, supplemented by after-sales service and spare parts revenue. Pricing is quote-based (not publicly listed), and contracts are typically multi-year and consultative, executed through a direct enterprise field-sales motion led by named representatives (Cliff Zhang for foam extrusion, Souder Chen) and supported by an extensive international trade-show presence (Chinaplas, K Show, NPE, Foam Expo Europe, Interfoam, and regional shows). The company is privately held and founder-controlled, with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company; its growth has been financed organically alongside a national Chinese 'Specialized and Sophisticated Little Giant' certification, partnerships with TotalEnergies Corbion (bioplastics), UNIDO (green technology), and the National Fund for Innovation, an acquired sub-brand (Useon-Manllen), and a recently broken-ground new factory expansion. Recognition includes consecutive Ringier Technology Innovation Awards (2022, 2023), U.S. invention patents, EcoVadis Silver Medal (2026), and German DIN CERTCO certification for EPLA biodegradable foam beads.
