Zhuhai Eastern Heavy Industry settled in Doumen District in 2003, and has grown into a large steel structure manufacturing and construction enterprise focusing on R&D, design, manufacturing, and construction. It also has an annual handling capacity of more than 120,000 metric tons.

The enterprise has undertaken major projects such as the Baishi Bridge in Zhuhai as well as the artificial island of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. In 2022, the enterprise reached a total order volume of 1.5 billion yuan ($211.1 million).

Zhuhai Zhirun Nursing Products is among the first batch of enterprises to produce plastic pump heads in China, and has sold products to many famous brands, including Amore, Adolph, and Face Shop.

Zhirun's project in the Fushan Industrial Park is the first to start decorating processes in the park. Once in operation, this will be an intelligent and green manufacturing factory that is green, low-carbon, high-end, and integrated. It is expected to help boost the recycled plastics industry chain aggregation.

An official of the park's administrative committee noted that the park will offer considerate services to enterprises to achieve mutual development.
