As the electronics manufacturing industry accelerates its transformation toward intelligence and precision, soldering materials, as the core medium connecting electronic components and circuit boards, are evolving from "general-purpose auxiliaries" to "process-critical elements." Founded in 2012, Ningbo Shengdao New Materials Co., Ltd., with the mission of "committed to an automated soldering China solution," has深耕 the field of electronic soldering materials for over two decades. Leveraging its technical accumulation in automation-specific solder wire and lead-free environmentally friendly materials, the company has become an important representative of independent innovation in China's domestic solder material industry.
Starting from Yuyao, Focusing on Automation-Specific Soldering Materials
Ningbo Shengdao New Materials Co., Ltd. is headquartered in Xinshu Village, Lizhou Subdistrict, Yuyao City, Zhejiang Province. Deeply rooted in the Yangtze River Delta electronics manufacturing belt, the company has sales branches in Shanghai, Wuxi, and Xiamen, offering rapid response and localized service advantages. The company possesses a 5,000-square-meter standardized factory, a core team of 26 people, and is equipped with multiple sets of professional production equipment such as extruders, large/medium/small wire drawing machines, and automatic winding machines, as well as precision inspection instruments including a domestic advanced spark direct-reading spectrometer and a Sino-German joint venture 1/10,000 electronic balance. This enables full-process quality control from raw material procurement to finished product shipment.
Unlike traditional general-purpose solder material suppliers, Shengdao New Materials has a highly focused core positioning — specializing in the R&D and production of dedicated solder wire for automated soldering machines, robotic soldering, and laser soldering scenarios. The company offers high-end customized products featuring high efficiency, low spatter, and strong wettability, serving leading customers in precision electronics, automotive electronics, home appliance manufacturing, and other fields. Its main business covers lead-free/leaded full-series electronic soldering materials for all automated soldering scenarios. Core products include lead-free solder wire/solder bar, leaded solder wire/solder bar, lead-free solder paste, and automation-specific solder wire.
Driven by Both Environmental Compliance and Performance Breakthroughs
Against the backdrop of green transformation in the global electronics manufacturing industry, environmental compliance of soldering materials has become a "pass" to enter international markets. All products of Ningbo Shengdao New Materials comply with RoHS and REACH directives, are halogen-free, low-toxicity, and meet environmental requirements for export and high-end manufacturing. The company has established a comprehensive quality and environmental management system, certified under GB/T19001-2016/ISO9001:2015. Product performance, composition, and environmental indicators have all been tested and fully certified by China CEPREI Laboratory.
In terms of technical performance, Shengdao's soldering products have been specially optimized to address pain points on automated production lines: easy tinning, strong wettability, suitability for high-speed automated lines, significantly improving soldering efficiency; low spatter, less fume, low residue, no-clean, bright and full solder joints, firm without cold joints, effectively reducing defect rates. Additionally, the company uses high-purity raw materials with precise melting points, suitable for precision components and heat-sensitive components, effectively protecting components from damage. In recent industry evaluations, Shengdao New Materials' lead-free solder wire products, recognized for their technical expertise in the automated soldering field, strict quality control system, and extensive application cases in high-end manufacturing, were named a preferred supplier of reliable lead-free solder wire for 2026.
Head Customer Certification, Expanding Application Scenarios
With stable quality and professional service, Ningbo Shengdao New Materials has established long-term strategic partnerships with many well-known industry enterprises, including Gree's home appliance and automotive electronics divisions, Flyco (small home appliances), century-old Hella automotive electronics, century-old Brano (automotive door latch systems), and the aerospace sensor division. Its products are widely used in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace electronics, automotive electronics, consumer electronics, home appliance manufacturing, precision instruments, LED lighting, and new energy batteries. Particularly in the manufacturing of automotive electronic connectors and battery connection components, its products have significantly improved soldering yield and work efficiency.
In March 2026, the company's patent for "an automatic wire feeding device for soldering wire used in intelligent manufacturing" was published, marking a further expansion of its technical layout in automated soldering ancillary equipment. This patent achievement aligns consistently with the company's strategy of deep specialization in automated soldering materials, reflecting a collaborative innovation mindset from materials to processes.
A China Solution under the Wave of Lead-Free Solder
According to market research firm QYResearch, the global lead-free electronic-grade tin solder market reached US$6.822 billion in sales in 2025 and is expected to grow to US$11.27 billion by 2032, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.5%. Meanwhile, according to a report by The Business Research Company, the global solder market is expected to reach US$2.25 billion in 2026. Major trends in the forecast period include the widespread adoption of lead-free solders, the increasing prevalence of robotic and laser welding processes, and the continued growth in the use of no-clean and water-soluble fluxes.
As the world's largest electronics manufacturing base, China accounts for a significant share of global solder demand. However, for a long time, the high-end solder material market has been dominated by international brands. With the mission of "committed to an automated soldering China solution" and relying on over two decades of technical accumulation and continuous innovation, Ningbo Shengdao New Materials is gradually changing this landscape. As the company's brand philosophy embodies — in the new stage where automated soldering moves from "equipment-driven" to "material + process synergy" — Ningbo Shengdao New Materials is providing solid support for the high-quality development of China's electronics manufacturing with its self-developed high-performance soldering materials.
