Aluminium-Mobike

By: June Wang | Comments: 0 | Category: Aluminium

In the eighties of last century, China was defined as a bicycle country. But by now, if you have a chance come to China first-tier or some second tier cities, a new discovery is a large number of bicycles began to re-enter the roads. They are colourful and different styles while with a same goal to facilitate travel.

Mobike as the leader of the internet plus bike here, we do not want to celebrate their performance, but I think you should be aware of some of the company.

  • During the Lianghui two sessions, Premier Li Keqiang met with Hu Weiwei, the founder of the Mobike, affirmed and encouraged such a new mode of operation to drive the traditional economic development through the new situation.
  • Mobike completed the fourth round of $250 million financing at the beginning of this year, with investments from Tencest and other investment institutions. For mobike, their Wuxi factory can produce 14,000 bicycles per day. As a real Chinese-made and Chinese brand, the motorbike is moving towards the world, Singapore is the first station.
  • More and more people are likely to choose bike travel, because it is convenient and environmentally friendly.

As an ordinary resident living in China, of course very happy to promote such a new product appears in our lives. But here, the focus we want to you understood is not Mobike, but how close the bike to aluminium industry.

Sourcing:Mobike

The picture showing is the second generation of mobike, young personality design and very eye-catching. From the first generation to the third generation, the bike body wholly used aluminum material, and wheel is solid magnesium aluminium alloy. As for aluminium, Shandong Hangxin New Material Company which mainly produces military and aerospace aluminum alloy materials is one supplier for Mobike Company, as is a branch of Shandong Weiqiao.

Last year, in less than a year, market volume of mobike has reached 80 million. This year’s total volume is expected to double or even more with the expansion of overseas markets.

Of course, some people will take into account the economic benefits, may be less than the automobile industry, not to mention high-speed rail construction, but what we focus here is not the economic benefits it brought, but aluminium as a new lightweight recyclable metal material intuitively appear in the bike industry closest to the lives of residents.

Hu Weiwei once said that if the business failed, it is still a public welfare subject. However, as a participant in the aluminum industry, we hope that she can make the bike innovation to be success, not just change the way of life and advocate environmental life, but more importantly, it has promoted the use of aluminium products and develop a more possibilities for this industry!
