Note2024
Yantai Tayho Advanced Materials is one of China's key strategic aramid companies, simultaneously supplying Chinese transformer manufacturers AND Chinese military/police with meta-aramid protective materials (Newstar® fiber for PPE). Tayho has total assets of more than 4 billion RMB and operates facilities in Yantai, Shandong and Ningdong, Ningxia. Its METASTAR® aramid paper is explicitly targeted at the transformer industry — "mainly applied in the transformer industry for power transmission and transformation equipment" — making it the primary instrument of Chinese domestic aramid self-sufficiency in a market otherwise dominated by DuPont.
