ZongXiang export a batch of rail fishplate to Zambia

In a significant stride toward expanding its global market presence, ZongXiang, a leading manufacturer of railway components, has successfully exported a batch of high-quality rail fishplates to Zambia. This milestone not only underscores the company’s commitment to international growth but also highlights its capabilities in providing reliable rail infrastructure solutions for emerging economies.

Rail fishplates, also known as joint bars or splice bars, are vital components used to join two rails together in a railway track. They play a crucial role in maintaining track alignment and ensuring the structural integrity of the railway. The batch exported to Zambia consists of standard heavy-duty fishplates tailored to suit the African country's specific railway requirements. These components are made from high-tensile steel and are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions and high-frequency rail traffic, ensuring longevity and safety.

ZongXiang’s collaboration with Zambia is a reflection of the growing demand for modern railway infrastructure across Africa. Zambia, a landlocked country in Southern Africa, relies heavily on its rail network for the transportation of copper, agricultural products, and other essential goods. With ongoing investments in infrastructure and a push toward regional integration, the need for durable and cost-effective railway components is more critical than ever.

This export marks a new chapter in ZongXiang’s international strategy. The company, known for its strong R&D capabilities and stringent quality control standards, has consistently delivered components that meet international benchmarks. Prior to shipment, the fishplates underwent rigorous testing including ultrasonic flaw detection, dimensional accuracy checks, and chemical composition analysis. This ensures that each unit complies with both ISO standards and the specific regulations outlined by Zambia Railways.

The shipment to Zambia also represents a model of efficient international cooperation. From order confirmation to production, packaging, customs clearance, and delivery, the entire process was completed within a tight timeframe, thanks to the coordinated efforts of ZongXiang’s logistics and export teams. Special packaging materials were used to protect the fishplates from corrosion and physical damage during transit, ensuring they arrived in perfect condition.

ZongXiang’s General Manager, Mr. Li Wei, commented on the successful export: “This project not only showcases our engineering strength and manufacturing capabilities but also reflects our commitment to supporting the development of rail networks in Africa. We are proud to contribute to Zambia’s transportation infrastructure and look forward to deepening our partnerships across the continent.”

Looking ahead, ZongXiang plans to strengthen its footprint in Africa by partnering with more local railway authorities and construction companies. The firm is also exploring the establishment of regional service centers to provide technical support, training, and after-sales services.

With its latest export to Zambia, ZongXiang has reinforced its position as a trusted global supplier of railway components. As Africa continues to modernize its rail systems, ZongXiang is poised to play a key role in building the backbone of the continent’s transportation future.
