Founded in 1995, Shandong Kenstone Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd. began specializing in producing excavating machinery in 2003. We currently have an annual production capacity of nearly 20,000 units, offering a range of products that includes medium and small wheel excavators, small crawler excavators, our patented wheel-crawler integrated excavators, dump trucks, and skid steer loaders. Our brands, RHINOCEROS, XINIU, and Kenstone, are synonymous with innovation and quality.
We employ over 600 skilled workers, including a dedicated R&D team of more than 70 professionals. All our products undergo rigorous testing and comply with ISO and CE standards.
Since 2010, we have been actively expanding our international trade business. By 2023, our annual foreign trade sales have reached approximately $70 million. This growth is primarily due to our focus on product development, consistent participation in international engineering machinery exhibitions such as the Canton Fair and Bauma in Germany, and on-site visits to clients to gather first-hand market demand information. Our company leaders and technical sales team have traveled to numerous countries and regions, including Europe, the United States, South America, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
Our R&D personnel are divided into 9 teams, each focusing on developing and improving different models to meet international market needs. For example, in 2014, we were the first to create and produce the first single-cylinder micro excavator in China, which quickly gained popularity in international markets and has been in high demand ever since.
Our company has obtained certifications for quality management, environmental management, occupational health and safety management, intellectual property management, and energy management systems, as well as the DCMM (Level 2) certification. Our products have passed the EU CE certification. We have been recognized as a high-tech enterprise, a provincial manufacturing single champion enterprise, a specialized and new enterprise, and a provincial gazelle enterprise.
