Our Story

From Trader to Industry-Recognized Manufacturer

Chapter One

The Beginning of This Journey — From Pure Trading Business to Industry-Recognized Manufacturer

1993
Edgar Hu, founder - the soul of the early journeyThe Beginning of a Journey

Founder Edgar Hu started in international trade, sourcing brass ball valves, hydraulic quick couplings and high-pressure valves for a major UK customer. Quality complaints were frequent — products failed to meet European standards.

2000
Born From Customer Trust

Several key UK and USA clients told Edgar: "You're honest, reliable, and we trust you. Why don't you set up your factory?" The Ningbo EH manufacturing facility was founded that year, starting with low-pressure brass ball valves.

2002
Two Years of R&D

Customers asked Edgar to develop hydraulic quick couplings and high-pressure valves. With full support of chief engineers from a world-recognized UK-based coupler manufacturer (1968–2008) — technical drawings and production expertise — Ningbo EH entered intensive R&D and equipment investment.
