Xgmas Green Tech Boosts Ceramics Industry Sustainability

The once smoke-filled ceramic production workshops are now being reimagined with quiet, efficient new energy equipment. Driven by China's "dual carbon" goals, the traditionally energy-intensive ceramic industry is undergoing an unprecedented green transformation, creating new opportunities and challenges for the construction machinery sector.

From April 18 to 22, the highly anticipated 2025 Foshan Tanzhou Ceramics Expo was held at the Tanzhou International Convention and Exhibition Center in Guangdong. As a bellwether event for the global ceramics industry, this year's exhibition, themed "Green Intelligent Manufacturing · Cross-border Integration," attracted over 800 enterprises from more than 20 countries and regions.

Among the exhibitors, Xiamen XGMA Machinery Co., Ltd. (XGMA) emerged as a focal point with its comprehensive lineup of new energy construction machinery products, offering innovative solutions for the industry's green transformation.

Under China's carbon neutrality commitments, the ceramic industry faces mounting pressure to modernize its energy-intensive production processes. Traditional manufacturing methods not only consume vast amounts of energy but also generate significant air pollutants, wastewater, and solid waste.

Recognizing this market shift, XGMA has developed specialized green intelligent solutions that combine new energy technology with heavy machinery. These innovations promise to reduce energy consumption, lower emissions, and enhance production efficiency simultaneously.

The expo showcased XGMA's cutting-edge products including:

• XG958EVII Pure Electric Loader: Featuring a 350kWh battery that charges in 1.5 hours for 8 hours of continuous operation, eliminating emissions while reducing operating costs by 60% compared to diesel models.
• XG957HEV Hybrid Loader: This dual-power system maintains full performance while cutting fuel consumption and emissions by 30-40%.
• XG530B-AA5 Electric Forklift: Designed for material handling in confined spaces with zero emissions and 50% lower noise levels.
• XG3080R Skid Steer Loader: A compact multi-purpose machine adaptable to various ceramic production tasks through interchangeable attachments.

Beyond energy innovations, XGMA demonstrated its 5G remote intelligent control system that enables precise unmanned operation—particularly valuable in hazardous ceramic production environments with high temperatures and dust. The system also provides real-time equipment monitoring and predictive maintenance capabilities.

During the expo, XGMA's booth drew hundreds of inquiries from domestic and international ceramic manufacturers, particularly from Southeast Asia. Several companies expressed immediate procurement intentions, with one Foshan-based manufacturer announcing plans to replace its entire fleet of diesel equipment within three years.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's newly released Building Materials Industry Carbon Peak Implementation Plan mandates that by 2025, over 30% of production capacity in the sector must meet advanced energy efficiency standards. This policy framework creates significant opportunities for new energy machinery adoption.

XGMA emphasizes a full-service approach to industry transformation, offering not just equipment but complete solutions including battery infrastructure, operator training, and lifecycle maintenance. This holistic strategy aims to simplify the transition to sustainable production for ceramic manufacturers.

With the successful expo showcase, XGMA plans to expand its international presence while continuing to develop specialized solutions for traditional industries undergoing green transformation. The company's innovations represent both the technological capabilities of China's equipment manufacturing sector and practical models for sustainable industrial development worldwide.
