Chen Hsong Holdings Limited () specializes in manufacturing and distributing plastic injection molding machinery and systems. Established in 1958 by Dr. Chiang Chen within a modest workshop in Hong Kong, the company has grown its presence internationally over more than fifty years. Chen Hsong caters to clients in upwards of 80 nations, including markets such as China, Taiwan, the United States, Canada, France, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and most countries across Southeast Asia.

Product Range and Industry Positioning

Chen Hsong designs and produces injection molding machines featuring clamping forces ranging from 20 to 6,500 tons, with injection capacities spanning from 28.4 grams to 106 kilograms. Their portfolio extends to mold machining services, automated molding systems, and tailor-made solutions for specialized requirements.

The firm’s primary operations cover injection molding equipment, high-precision molds, hydraulic proportional valves, and servo valves. Additionally, Chen Hsong offers comprehensive support including maintenance services, spare parts provision, production assistance, preform processing, and equipment leasing options.

Acknowledged as a prominent supplier within the injection molding sector, Bloomberg highlights Chen Hsong as one of the two principal competitors in the Asia-Pacific market. The company delivers over 15,000 machines each year; its Chinese branch holds the position of second-largest brand for injection molding machines in China, following Haitian Plastic Machinery Group.

In 2018, Chen Hsong entered into collaborations with distributors based in the United States to enhance market penetration; however, these efforts encountered obstacles due to trade tariffs introduced by the Trump administration.

Research and Development Initiatives

Significant investments are directed towards Research and Development to guarantee adherence to both national and international standards. Products marketed within the European Union comply fully with EU safety directives and are engineered to optimize compatibility with various peripherals and accessories.

Customer Service and Support

Chen Hsong operates an extensive local sales and service network throughout Europe with representatives in 23 countries. In North America, established joint venture distributor partnerships since 2018 ensure dependable long-term service delivery. Within China, round-the-clock local support and service infrastructures are maintained continuously.
