Our story
The story of Fasten Group starts in 1964 as we were a small company that specialized in the production of hemp ropes used for boats and ships. For six years we continued to grow steadily until we expanded our production capabilities in the 1970's to include the manufacturing of steel wire and other wire rope products. Today, we have a diverse catalog of products that include all kinds of steel wires, wire ropes, optical communication products, mechanical equipment, and artificial marble.
We produce 850,000 tons of wire and rope products every year and we do business in countries all over the world.
The Strengths of Fasten
1. Our state-level enterprise technology center and metal testing center allow Fasten to be at the forefront of many national key science and technology support programs. We also undertake the secretariats of Steel Wire Ropes subcommittee of Steel Technology Committee in SAC(SAC/TC 183/SC 12) as well as Steel Wire Ropes Technology Committee in International Organization for Standardization(ISO/TC 105). We also operate the only National Metal Wire Product Engineering Technology Research Center in China.
2. Fasten's current production bases cover manufacturing for conveyor belt steel cord, bridge cable, PC strand, stainless steel products, fine cable, tire cord (joint venture), and fiber optics among others.
3. In 2013, Fasten's conveyor belt steel cord was awarded a certificate of exemption from the customs examination by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China. This expedites our production and shipping policies.
4. In 2016, we became one of China's national model enterprises as a wire and cable manufacturer. We were also the recipient of the award at the fourth China Grand Awards for Industry.
Conveyor Belt Steel Cord Base

These are popular for use in the construction of roads, bridges, high rise buildings, and even water conservancy projects.
Stainless Steel Product Base
The stainless steel product factory produces 28,000 tons of stainless steel wire, 2000 tons of stainless steel cable, and 2000 tons of stainless steel bar each year. These stainless steel products are applied in a variety of applications including aviation, chemical processing, electronics production, automotive and many other industrial applications.
Fine Steel Cord Base
The Fasten fine steel cord production base features a total manufacturing capacity of 1,500 tons per year. The factory produces steel cord for PU timing belt with their ultra-fine diameter, low stress, and low elongation rate. Our Steel Cord greatly increase the useful life of timing belt. All of the production operations that occur in this factory are done in accordance with ISO9001, IATF16949 standards.
General Purpose and Specialty Wire Rope Base
The GP and specialty wire rope facility is where we manufacture wire rope for high-speed railway networks, elevator rope, wire rope for harbor machinery, etc. The factory holds certificates such as ISO9001, API SEPCQ1 and JIS Q1001. We have created an maintained strategic partnerships with Shanghai Mitsubishi Elevator, the Port of Shanghai, Xugong Group, Sany Heavy Industry and many others in order to work together to create better products for everyone.

Commercial Wire Base
Our commercial wire production base is engaged in the manufacturing of high grade steel wire products. The size range of these wires cover 0.5-12mm and our annual output has surpassed 200,000 tons. The products come in eight series including spring wire, music wire, baling wire, cable wire and more.
Fiber Optics Base
After establishing a partnership agreement with Potevio, the two enterprises decided to establish 4 fiber optic bases in Jiangsu, Shanxi, Sichuan, and Shanxi. These bases are the home to our outstanding optical fiber research and development centers as well as the production facilities. These fiber products are used in communications networks all over the world.
