As a vice-chairman unit of the association, Lou Yuejun, Executive Deputy General Manager of TIANS Fermentation Engineering Division, attended the ceremony and accepted the award on behalf of the Group. He noted, "The biofermentation industry is at a critical stage of transitioning from traditional manufacturing to green, intelligent, and high-value-added production. TIANS Group is committed to addressing the core challenges fermentation clients face from lab to industrial scale through continuous technological innovation and specialized delivery capabilities. We have introduced the 'TIANS Model' to help fermentation companies establish long-term technical barriers in fierce market competition, with lower costs and higher quality."

01 Core Strength: Smart Equipment Enables Green Production

As an engineering design group dedicated to empowering the industrialization of new technologies, TIANS has been deeply involved in the biofermentation industry for many years, always placing technological innovation at the core of its strategy. On the smart equipment front, the company’s self-developed "Intelligent Instantaneous Sterilizer" utilizes high-temperature short-time sterilization principles. Through efficient heat exchangers, it synchronizes heating, sterilization, and cooling processes, reducing sterilization time to tens of seconds with a sterilization rate exceeding 99.99%. Compared to traditional batch sterilization, it saves over 70% of steam and over 90% of cooling water, with an average payback period of just 10 months. The sterilizer has received 21 core patents, ranks first in national sales volume*, and has been exported to markets such as Vietnam, Thailand, and Kazakhstan.

In the field of engineering and technology services, TIANS integrates nearly three decades of practical experience into the "TIANS Model" — based on comprehensive process expertise and driven by a "trinity, three-engine" synergistic operation, ultimately delivering the value promise of "first-time trial success". In recent years, TIANS has established deep collaborations with leading biofermentation enterprises such as Kelun Group·Chuanning Bio, Cathay Biotech, United Laboratories, Qilu Pharmaceutical, Fufeng Group, Yipin Bio, as well as synthetic biology leaders including Huaheng Bio, Yiduli Bio, Jinhai Bio, Jinbo Bio, and Guangda Lianfeng. By transforming cutting-edge technologies into mature productivity, TIANS continues to help global biofermentation and synthetic biology companies achieve industrial realization.
