"Taicang Manufacturing, German Quality" is a crucial part of Taicang's new industrialization efforts. By merging the precision and rigor of German manufacturing with the innovative vitality of local manufacturing, Taicang is accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system. 

Over the course of 31 years of collaboration with Germany, more than 500 German enterprises have established a presence in Taicang, earning it a reputation as the "hometown of German enterprises". These companies have set up advanced production lines and management models consistent with their German headquarters, significantly enhancing local R&D and manufacturing capabilities.

Simultaneously, German enterprises have become deeply integrated with local Taicang companies, creating a comprehensive industry chain and ecosystem. Over 800 local enterprises and research institutions have engaged in various forms of cooperation with German companies, learning advanced technologies and modern management practices. This collaboration has provided a major boost to Taicang's manufacturing industry.

Taicang has developed a "3+3" industrial system, establishing three leading industries with an output value of over 100 billion yuan each: high-end equipment, advanced materials, and modern logistics and trade. As a result, Taicang has seen the emergence of numerous high-quality local advanced manufacturing enterprises whose products are comparable to those made in Germany. In addition, traditional manufacturing industries are revitalizing by transitioning to high-end, intelligent, and green production.

Focusing on the development of new quality productive forces, Taicang actively promotes the integration and innovation of industrial, supply, innovation, and talent chains, continuously enhancing the quality of Taicang manufacturing. The label "German Quality" not only refers to the high-quality products of Taicang manufacturing but also highlights Taicang's unique advantages in the global industrial manufacturing system.
