A well-known Dalian private enterprise has attracted Yili, Nestle and other domestic and foreign dairy giants to seek cooperation, and some multinational companies have even wanted high-priced mergers and acquisitions. This is so popular because the company has mastered the world's first technology to prepare high-purity, low-molecular-weight active potassium alginate. This substance has a natural blood pressure lowering effect. Yili Group has obtained the approval of the relevant state departments, and can use this technology to produce “pressure-reducing milk powderâ€, which will be listed as early as this winter; antihypertensive drugs made from this substance are recommended to be declared as national class I new drugs... available in Dalian Witter Bioengineering Co., Ltd., chairman and general manager Yu Chuanxing told reporters that he also worried about holding the “Golden Rice Bowlâ€: on the one hand, the scale of the company is limited, and if it does not expand production rapidly, it may not be able to meet the huge market demand that is about to emerge; On the other hand, as a native of Dalian, he “does not want to leave Dalian or sell technology to foreignersâ€.
18 kg of milk powder knocked on the door of Ely
Last year, Yili Group was approved by the relevant state departments to produce “pressure-reducing milk powder†containing potassium alginate. Dalian Yavit is Yili's partner in this project – it is the only manufacturer and supplier of high purity and low molecular weight active potassium alginate raw materials in the world. Received the recognition and trust of Yili, Yaweite used 18 kg of milk powder.
"Before and after 2006, we have contacted several domestic dairy giants, but they should be embarrassed." Yu Chuanxing said. Compared with those companies, Yaweite can only be regarded as a mystery. "Some people don't bother to listen to you," which makes Yu Chuan very unpleasant. Going to the gate of Yili, Yu Chuanxing had a new idea: Entrusted to produce 18 kilograms of “pressure-reducing milk powder†containing potassium alginate, which was given to Yili employees free of charge in the form of welfare.
18 kilograms of milk powder was quickly divided into a fine light - drinking milk powder blood pressure, is undoubtedly good news for patients with hypertension. But the voice of "complaining" sounded immediately - "How is this only? Not enough!" Soon another 18 kilograms were split.
Yaweite and its high-purity, low-molecular-weight active potassium alginate are just a hit. The cooperation with Yili has also become a matter of course. Once the new product is launched this year, it will fill the market gap – this will be the first antihypertensive milk powder based on potassium alginate in China.
More than ten years of research and development of the world's advanced technology
Potassium alginate is mainly made of potassium alginate extracted from kelp. Its efficacy in lowering blood pressure was scientifically proven in the 1980s. But while taking blood pressure, taking potassium alginate also has obvious side effects - leading to diarrhea. Since 1997, Yu Chuanxing has organized a group of experienced and experienced marine biologists, pharmacy experts, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular experts, molecular biology experts, and experts in seaweed industry to conduct in-depth research on potassium alginate. After more than ten years of hard work, they finally thoroughly understood the secret of potassium alginate - in the macromolecular state, the human body can not digest and lead to diarrhea; in the (certain) low molecular weight state, potassium alginate not only has no side effects but also The best antihypertensive effect.
So far, Dalian Yavit has mastered the world's first high-purity and low-molecular-weight active potassium alginate extraction technology, and has obtained national invention patents and international PCT patents. This low molecular weight potassium alginate can be widely used in many fields such as pharmaceuticals, health foods, and functional food additives.
Big companies are eager to grab the pro-Dalian
It’s not just the Yili family that is in Yaweit. Since the 1990s, multinational companies from the United States, Canada, Japan, and South Korea have come to the door. After Yaweite mastered the high-purity and low-molecular-weight active potassium alginate preparation technology, world-class companies have stepped through the threshold. “Nestlé sent me several invitations and hoped to have an interview; their R&D center executives made a special trip to visit us in Dalian.†Yu Chuanxing said. A large food company in South Korea has proposed cooperation conditions. As long as it accepts foreign ownership, others can talk about it; Canada’s largest deep-sea fish oil producer in the world has repeatedly visited the door and repeatedly invited to Canada to spread it... “The aim is our technology. "Other cities in China are also optimistic about Yaweite, and built a nest waiting for the phoenix.
Yu Chuanxing didn't want to leave Dalian - after all, he grew up here, after all, Yaweite's roots are here. But now, bigger problems are in front of him: With the increase in the number of large customers such as Yili, the demand for potassium alginate is growing rapidly, and the productivity of Yaweite is imminent. "If there is not enough room for development, it is difficult for enterprises to become bigger and stronger quickly." Yu Chuanxing had to rethink the issue of strategic layout.
