As a global pioneer in steel wire transformation and coating technologies, Bekaert seeks innovative materials and new services and solutions beyond steel, including in areas such as new mobility, low-carbon construction, and green energy. Bekaert (Euronext Brussels: BEKB) is a multinational company founded in 1880 and headquartered in Belgium, with over 27,000 dedicated employees worldwide, generating combined revenue of €7 billion in 2022.

Bekaert entered the Chinese market in the 1990s and established production bases. As one of the earliest Belgian companies to invest in China and also one of the most significant, Bekaert has always believed in China's strategic position in the global market, actively supporting and promoting the development of Chinese industries, and growing together with China. In recent years, Bekaert's business in China, especially its steel cord products for radial tire reinforcement, has experienced significant growth.

With cumulative investments in China exceeding €1 billion, Bekaert currently operates 15 production sites in 9 cities across mainland China, along with an R&D center (one of only two globally), an engineering center, a trading company, and the Asia Regional Headquarters. The production and sales network across the country can quickly and efficiently meet customer and market demands, providing localized personalized services with global quality.
