With the success of He-Qiao, it wasn't
long before Loyal expanded its manufacturing capability in China. In 1994, Loyal teamed-up
with China's largest Pentane factory,
the Kong Kou Industrial company, to found the Longxin Chemical Industrial Corporation.
Although the local partner was already producing Pentane, Loyal used its investment and
manufacturing expertise to build a new factory, as the former one did not meet Loyal's
standards.All new equipment, including automated
machinery, was brought in and the factory's staff was trained in the latest manufacturing
processes.

The establishment of this factory was key in Loyal's move toward
vertical integration of its manufacturing facilities. At Longxin, Loyal is producing the
blowing agent Pentane, which is a crucial raw material in the production of EPS resin. By
producing the Pentane itself, Loyal can closely control the quality and quantity of the
blowing agent.

The Longxin factory
has already become the largest Pentane manufacturer in the Mainland, producing 450 metric
tons of Pentane and Butane each month. In addition to supplying Pentane to Loyal's He-Qiao
factory, Longxin also sells to other companies in China and in the future will sell to
customers overseas.
