Two Factories. One Standard.

Heyuan for precision, innovation, and core-client work. Bangkok (a 50/50 joint venture with Weilan Optical Thailand) for scale and tariff resilience. Forty-eight thousand square metres of acetate manufacturing across two production centres.

Strategic Production Allocation

Two production centres · Shenzhen procurement
Heyuan · Core Innovation

Complex, high-precision designs, the Push-Thru hot-press cells, the wrapped-end mold library, and core-client work on the 5th-floor customised line. Heyuan is also where partially processed components are produced before being finished in Thailand.

Bangkok · Scale & Tariff Resilience

Large-volume acetate production outside U.S. tariff exposure. Same Chinese CIC team transplanted to Thailand; same training, same tolerances, same QC. Reserved land allows ramp to 150k/mo by mid-2026.

Shenzhen · Procurement Hub

Opened May 2026 in Henggang — the core of Shenzhen's optical industry cluster. Sources raw materials and components for Heyuan and Bangkok production. Same trusted suppliers, faster turnaround — the procurement engine sitting inside the supply network.
