ZongXiang, a leading manufacturer and supplier of railway fasteners in China, has successfully exported a large batch of rail screw spikes to Colombia, reinforcing its growing presence in the Latin American market. This shipment marks a significant step in the company’s ongoing strategy to expand its international footprint and strengthen partnerships in the global railway infrastructure sector.

The rail screw spikes, part of ZongXiang’s high-performance fastening product line, are designed to meet international standards including AREMA, DIN, and UIC. Manufactured using high-grade carbon steel and alloy steel, the spikes undergo rigorous quality control processes such as heat treatment, threading precision checks, and coating tests to ensure optimal durability and corrosion resistance. The shipment to Colombia comprises over 50,000 units of Type Ss series screw spikes, which are commonly used for fastening wooden and concrete sleepers in heavy haul and passenger rail applications.

ZongXiang’s collaboration with Colombian railway authorities and contractors began earlier this year through a strategic procurement initiative. After extensive technical evaluations and site testing, the Colombian client selected ZongXiang based on the company’s product reliability, cost-effectiveness, and capacity for on-time delivery. The successful completion of this order highlights ZongXiang’s reputation as a trusted global supplier of railway materials.

“This shipment is a milestone for us,” said Mr. Li Jianhua, the General Manager of ZongXiang. “Colombia’s railway network is undergoing modernization, and we are proud to contribute our expertise and products to support this effort. We believe our screw spikes will play an essential role in enhancing track safety and longevity.”

Logistics for the shipment were handled in coordination with international freight partners to ensure smooth and timely delivery. The products were packed in heavy-duty wooden crates with proper labeling, fumigation, and moisture-proof treatment in accordance with international export standards. The cargo departed from Tianjin Port and is expected to reach Cartagena, Colombia within 30 days.

Colombia’s rail infrastructure development has gained momentum in recent years, with the government investing in projects aimed at improving freight transportation and connectivity between key industrial zones and ports. With growing demand for high-quality railway components, Chinese suppliers like ZongXiang are becoming increasingly vital to the supply chain in Latin America.

Looking forward, ZongXiang is optimistic about future opportunities in Colombia and other Latin American countries. The company plans to participate in regional railway exhibitions, conduct technical seminars, and work closely with local partners to offer customized fastening solutions. By leveraging its strong manufacturing base, R&D capabilities, and international experience, ZongXiang aims to become a key player in the global railway supply industry.

The successful export of this batch of rail screw spikes not only strengthens ZongXiang’s global presence but also demonstrates the company’s commitment to quality, innovation, and international cooperation. As global railway networks continue to expand and modernize, ZongXiang is well-positioned to meet the evolving needs of infrastructure builders worldwide.
