Recently, the highly anticipated "2025 Forbes China Industry Development Leader Selection" final evaluation conference was successfully concluded in Shanghai. After winning the Forbes China Best Potential Enterprise award for the first time in 2012, Changzhou Almaden Co., Ltd. has once again been honored with the "2025 Forbes China Industry Development Innovation Brand" award for its disruptive innovation breakthroughs in the photovoltaic field. This selection focuses on six strategic areas, relying on Forbes' international perspective and authoritative evaluation system. Through big data modeling, in-depth industry interviews, and market penetration research, we have selected the vanguard forces leading China's industrial upgrading.

Innovation is the lifeline of enterprises and the key to breaking through the photovoltaic industry, "said Jinxi  Lin, Chairman of Almaden, at the award ceremony. As an innovator in the field of photovoltaic materials, Almaden has been tackling technological challenges for ten years, carving a new benchmark for intelligent manufacturing in China on the photovoltaic glass track. Its independently developed 1.6mm ultra-thin photovoltaic tempered glass has successfully broken through the industry's physical tempered thickness limit, reducing weight by 35% compared to traditional products while increasing transparency by 2.5 percentage points. With multiple national patent certifications and large-scale application verification, "Chinese glass" has become synonymous with high-end photovoltaic components.
      In the field of cutting-edge technology, Almaden continues to demonstrate strategic foresight. In response to the load bottleneck in the process of large-scale production of perovskite components, innovative research and development of ITO glass optical conversion technology and large-size ultra-thin tempered coating conductive technology have been carried out to solve the contradiction between component weight and load; In emerging application scenarios such as low altitude economy and smart cities, the high-performance anti glare glass launched by Almaden achieves a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality, effectively avoiding the risk of light pollution.
      From the debut of a rising star in the industry in 2012 to the second peak of innovation benchmark in 2025, Almaden has interpreted the evolutionary code of Chinese photovoltaic enterprises through thirteen years of leapfrog development. As  Jinxi Lin said, "Every piece of glass is an energy carrier that carries a green future." Based on the historical opportunity period of the "dual carbon" strategy, Almaden will continue to drive development with innovation, deeply cultivate in the photovoltaic field, write a brilliant chapter of China's intelligent manufacturing in the photovoltaic industry, and contribute to the transformation of the domestic energy structure.
