en.Wedoany.com Report, On March 27, 2026, ContiTech, part of Continental Group, announced that its core industrial hose product, Insta-Grip 300, has achieved localized production in China at its Yanzhou factory in Shandong province. Following localization, the annual production capacity has reached 600 kilometers, and the delivery lead time has been shortened from several months under the previous import model to approximately 45 days. This significantly enhances local supply security and service response speed to better meet the needs of customers in China's high-end manufacturing sectors.

Insta-Grip 300 is a high-performance industrial hose featuring excellent flexibility, kink resistance, oil resistance, and pressure resistance. It is suitable for high-end applications such as automotive manufacturing robots, data center equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, and injection molding. The product utilizes a clamp-free quick-connect fitting design, with a maximum working pressure of 300 psi. It also possesses non-conductive properties, offering a minimum resistance of no less than 1 megohm/inch under 1000V DC conditions, providing additional safety assurance for sensitive operational environments.

Zhao Long, Head of Channels for ContiTech Asia Pacific Industrial Solutions Business Group in China, stated, "The successful localization of the Insta-Grip 300 industrial hose is a crucial step in deepening our local footprint and enhancing our service capabilities. Leveraging the advanced manufacturing technology at the Yanzhou plant, we will provide Chinese customers with more competitive products and efficient local support, helping them optimize operational efficiency."

Building on the Yanzhou plant's capabilities in material handling, warehousing systems, and precision machining, the localized Insta-Grip 300 industrial hose achieves performance parity with its global counterpart while strictly adhering to global quality standards. This initiative not only shortens delivery times and increases supply flexibility but also mitigates the impact of cross-border uncertainties on customers' supply chains.

With over 150 years of experience in materials technology, ContiTech will continue to strengthen its localization efforts in China, including R&D, production, and supply chain integration, expanding its industrial fluid solutions capabilities to support the sustainable development of China's manufacturing industry.
