Jiahua announces a 20 Million USD expansion of North American operations

Jiahua announced today the expansion of their North American operations through the establishment of
our facility in Northern Mexico in Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila State. The new plant is owned by Jiahua’s US
subsidiary JCI Advanced Materials. The plant is set on 40,000 Sq meters of land with the initial factory
building being 5000 Sq meters. The plant is designed with 8 production trains that include mixing,
chemical reaction and storage of finished chemical products.

Jiahua is known as a leader in China in the area of Alkoxylation with 1.4 million metric tons of capacity in
6 different cities in China. This investment in North America is part of a globalization strategy being
employed currently by Jiahua. The main products of Jiahua are polyether polyols, amines and PCE’s
used in cement and admixtures, and surfactants used in a variety of applications.

Jiahua’s effort in the Americas has been underway for the last 4 years though it’s US subsidiary JCI
Advanced Technology. JCI has quickly established market share in the polyether polyol space through
development and implementation of a logistics and customer service network across the USA that
included shore tanks and a rail fleet. “As customer service is core to JCI’s value proposition, the
onshoring of the supply chain through the new plant in Mexico is just the next logical step in our growth
in the America’s” stated Timothy Earl Madden, CEO of Jiahua US Holdings and JCI Advanced Technology.
He added “while we focus on bringing up the Mexico plant by February 2024, we are also taking
additional steps that will further shore up our position in the Americas”.
