In the dynamic world of global infrastructure development, Henan Zongxiang Heavy Industry Import & Export Co., Ltd., commonly known as ZongXiang, has once again demonstrated its prowess as a leading supplier of high-quality steel rails. Established over two decades ago by a team of seasoned experts in the rail and track sector, ZongXiang specializes in manufacturing and exporting a wide array of rail products, including light rails, heavy rails, crane rails, and essential accessories like rail clamps, clips, fishplates, and rubber pads. With a commitment to reliability and innovation, the company has built a stellar reputation across Asia, Europe, Africa, and beyond, serving industries from mining and factories to ports and construction sites.
Recently, ZongXiang marked another milestone in its international expansion by exporting a substantial batch of A65 crane rails to Indonesia. This shipment, comprising 40 tons of premium DIN-standard A65 rails, represents a strategic move to bolster the Southeast Asian nation's burgeoning industrial landscape. The A65 crane rail, a flat-bottomed steel profile adhering to the DIN 536-1-1991 specifications, measures 65mm in height and 55mm in head width, with a weight of approximately 52.8 kg per meter. Crafted from high-grade UIC60 steel, these rails boast exceptional durability, wear resistance, and load-bearing capacity, making them ideal for overhead cranes, gantry systems, and heavy-duty material handling in warehouses, shipyards, and manufacturing facilities.
Indonesia's rapid economic growth, fueled by ambitious infrastructure initiatives under the government's National Medium-Term Development Plan, has created surging demand for robust rail solutions. The archipelago nation, with its vast archipelago and expanding urban centers, is investing heavily in logistics and industrial parks to enhance connectivity and efficiency. Key projects, such as the development of new ports in Java and Sumatra, and the modernization of industrial zones in Batam and Bekasi, require reliable crane rail systems to support heavy lifting operations. ZongXiang's A65 rails are perfectly suited for these applications, offering seamless integration with existing crane setups while ensuring safety and longevity. This export aligns with Indonesia's push toward sustainable industrialization, as ZongXiang's products comply with international quality standards, including ISO certifications, and undergo rigorous non-destructive testing for straightness, hardness, and tensile strength.
The journey of this export began months ago when ZongXiang's sales team received an inquiry from a prominent Indonesian construction conglomerate specializing in port and warehouse expansions. After detailed consultations, including virtual site assessments and customized specifications, the order was finalized for 760 meters of A65 rails, complete with matching rail clips and pads for optimal installation. Production at ZongXiang's state-of-the-art facility in Henan Province kicked off immediately, leveraging advanced rolling mills and automated welding lines to ensure precision. Each rail underwent meticulous quality inspections—ultrasonic flaw detection, dimensional checks, and surface treatment for corrosion resistance—before being bundled securely for sea transport.
Logistics played a pivotal role in this seamless operation. The batch departed from the bustling port of Qingdao on November 5, 2025, aboard a container vessel chartered through ZongXiang's established shipping partners. En route via the South China Sea, the shipment traversed approximately 3,500 nautical miles, arriving at Jakarta's Tanjung Priok Port on November 18. Customs clearance was expedited thanks to ZongXiang's proactive documentation, including certificates of origin and compliance with Indonesian National Standards (SNI). Upon arrival, the rails were offloaded and transported inland to the client's facility in Surabaya, where engineers reported exceptional material quality, exceeding expectations for flatness and uniformity.
This export not only underscores ZongXiang's technical expertise but also highlights its customer-centric approach. "We view every shipment as a partnership in progress," stated ZongXiang's Export Director, Li Wei. "Indonesia's infrastructure boom presents immense opportunities, and we're proud to contribute with products that stand the test of time." Indeed, this deal builds on ZongXiang's prior successes in the region, including recent exports of CR73 rails to Medan and 12kg light rails to Bali, totaling over 100 tons in the past year. These ventures have fostered long-term relationships, with repeat orders and referrals driving 25% year-on-year growth in Southeast Asian sales.
Looking ahead, ZongXiang is poised to deepen its footprint in Indonesia through localized partnerships and R&D collaborations tailored to tropical climates, where humidity and seismic activity demand enhanced rail resilience. By prioritizing sustainability—such as using recycled steel inputs and low-emission manufacturing—the company aligns with global green initiatives, appealing to eco-conscious buyers. This A65 crane rail export is more than a transaction; it's a testament to ZongXiang's role in powering the engines of progress, one rail at a time. As Indonesia accelerates toward its Vision 2045 goals of becoming a high-income economy, suppliers like ZongXiang will remain indispensable allies in forging stronger, more efficient pathways to prosperity.
