Ningde, Fujian — This afternoon, CATL, the global leader in the lithium-ion battery industry, hosted its 2026 Equipment Supplier Quality Conference, themed "Collaborating for Progress, Winning the Future through Quality." As a key strategic partner, Ms. Cao Juan, Deputy General Manager of Operations at FHS Group, attended the event to discuss the future of equipment quality management with core industry chain partners.

A Milestone Achievement: Recognizing Hardcore Technical Strength

The conference focused on the "dual value of equipment quality improvement," maintaining exceptionally high entry standards for participating suppliers. During the awards ceremony, FHS Group stood out among numerous competitors, winning the prestigious "Best Equipment Quality Self-Driven Award" for its superior quality management system and consistent delivery performance.

The significance of the "Self-Drive" (自驱) designation is profound. Within CATL’s supply ecosystem, quality is not merely an external compliance standard but an intrinsic core driver of the enterprise. Winning this specific award among global Tier-1 suppliers reflects CATL’s high recognition of FHS Group’s proactive and evolving quality culture. It also serves as a testament to FHS’s deep integration into the quality ecosystem of the global new energy supply chain.

Quality as the Foundation: The FHS Path to Global Excellence

At FHS Group, quality is built-in, not just inspected. This award stems from the company's commitment to intelligent manufacturing and a global strategy that embeds quality into its corporate DNA.

Currently, FHS Group is on a fast track to global expansion. To meet diverse international technical standards, FHS has developed a reproducible and traceable Global Quality Control System. Leveraging its deep R&D expertise, FHS strictly implements the VDA 6.7 standard from the German Association of the Automotive Industry. It has established a comprehensive FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) process for overseas projects, covering seven critical stages—from initial solution refinement and design review to assembly and full-line commissioning. This self-driven oversight ensures every step, from blueprint to delivery, withstands rigorous scrutiny.

This internal quality engine has earned FHS a stellar reputation worldwide. Across projects in North America, Europe, and Japan, FHS utilizes FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) and QCP (Quality Control Plan) milestones to implement a "dual-control mechanism" for project scheduling and quality gates. This ensures every production line passes strict customer acceptance with high stability. By combining "China-based R&D" with "Localized Service," FHS not only supports CATL’s domestic expansion but also gains wide recognition from other global industry leaders.

Winning the Future: Pursuing Excellence with Industry Giants

"If you want to go far, go together." In this high-quality partnership with CATL, FHS Group acts as a value co-creator rather than just an equipment supplier.

Ms. Cao Juan, Deputy General Manager of Operations, stated:

 "We are grateful for CATL’s trust. Quality is the language of our dialogue and the foundation of our cooperation. This 'Best Equipment Quality Self-Driven Award' is both an honor and a motivation—it reminds us that quality is a proactive pursuit, not a passive benchmark. This honor belongs to every FHS employee who strives for excellence in their role."

Ms. Cao further called upon the team

"This award is a new starting point. I encourage all colleagues to integrate the spirit of 'Self-Drive' into their daily actions. Only when every one of us acts as a guardian of quality can FHS remain invincible in the global market."

Looking ahead, FHS Group will use this achievement to further deepen lean management and digital transformation. Driven by its "Self-Drive" philosophy, FHS will continue to collaborate with global partners to redefine the future of equipment quality management.
