At the exhibition site, HTGP demonstrated the structure, configuration, and actual operation effects of the equipment through equipment models, product diagrams, technical materials, and real project videos, and combined with the company’s comprehensive strength in patents, cooperation cases, and production bases, systematically showcasing the overall capability from smelting to casting forming, from hot rolling to steel pipe anti-corrosion. For customers in steel, metal processing, casting, and forging production, the on-site team also provided one-on-one equipment selection and solution consulting based on material types, production capacity targets, process flows, and application scenarios. The complete product matrix and professional solution display attracted a large number of overseas customers to visit and proactively seek consultation.

II. On-site Customer Engagement

Throughout the four-day exhibition, HTGP’s booth received a steady stream of visitors. Buyers, factory managers, and industry professionals from Saudi Arabia and neighboring Middle Eastern countries visited to discuss technical specifications, configuration options, and cooperation models for induction melting furnaces, casting production lines, hot rolling mills, and steel pipe anti-corrosion equipment. Whether flipping through product materials at the reception desk or sitting down for discussions in the negotiation area, the team provided professional explanations tailored to each customer’s specific project needs.

At the same time, HTGP also reunited with several long-term partners at the booth. The team had in-depth discussions with old customers about the operation of existing projects, subsequent production line expansion, and new equipment needs, further consolidating mutual trust and exploring cooperation in broader areas. Many new and old customers posed for photos with the HTGP team after the talks, and the booth frequently saw a relaxed and lively atmosphere of communication.

At this FABEX Saudi Arabia 2026 exhibition, HTGP not only showcased its key products and integrated solutions to the Middle East market, but also further enhanced its brand awareness and influence in the region through high-density on-site engagement, laying a solid foundation for deepening its presence in the Middle East and surrounding overseas markets and promoting more project implementations.

III. Factory Visit to K*B, Seeking Further Cooperation

During the exhibition, the HTGP team was also invited to visit K*B, where both parties had detailed discussions on the actual operation of the previously purchased 50kg and 100kg stainless steel induction melting furnaces.

Since being put into use, the equipment has been running stably, with smelting efficiency and temperature control precision meeting expectations, effectively meeting the customer’s production needs in the stainless steel pump casting process. Both sides also exchanged views on daily operation and maintenance of the equipment. Through this on-site visit, HTGP gained a more direct understanding of the customer’s actual working conditions in stainless steel smelting and casting processing, and laid a good foundation for subsequent technical services and spare parts support. Both parties agreed to maintain smooth communication and make good use of and maintain the delivered equipment.

IV. Collecting Prospective Customers, Understanding Local Market and Competitor Information

Leveraging this exhibition and on-site visits, the HTGP team focused on the accumulation and organization of prospective customer information while engaging with customers. During the four-day exhibition, the team received multiple batches of buyers, factory managers, and industry professionals from Saudi Arabia and neighboring Middle Eastern countries at the reception desk and negotiation area, conducted face-to-face communication on equipment needs in steel, metal processing, casting, and steel pipe anti-corrosion, and recorded a batch of prospective customers with clear equipment needs or production line plans, reserving customer resources for follow-up and quotation services after the exhibition.

In communication with customers, the team directly felt the vitality of the local metal smelting and casting market. With the continued promotion of large-scale infrastructure, energy, and industrialization projects under Saudi Arabia’s “Vision 2030,” the demand for updating and expanding equipment such as induction melting furnaces, ingot casting, and rolling mills by local steel, casting, and machinery manufacturing enterprises is steadily increasing. More and more customers are starting to pay attention to the smelting efficiency, temperature control precision, energy saving and environmental protection, and automation level of the equipment, which is highly compatible with the characteristics of HTGP’s key products.

The team also used the exhibition platform to conduct on-site understanding of the competitive landscape of the local market. At present, the Middle East melting furnace market has been laid out by multiple international well-known brands, and there are also some regional equipment manufacturers participating in the competition, with differences in product positioning, price range, delivery cycle, and after-sales service. Through on-site observation and communication with customers, the team more clearly saw the importance that customers attach to equipment stability, cost-effectiveness, and localization service response when selecting.

This Saudi trip, HTGP not only showcased its key products and integrated solutions, but also accumulated prospective customers and deepened its understanding of local market demand and competitive dynamics. Next, the team will systematically organize and follow up the customer information and market feedback collected this time, and improve the products and service strategies for the Middle East market, laying a good foundation for continued deep cultivation of Saudi Arabia and surrounding overseas markets.
