In early winter Madrid, the global spotlight once again turned to the rail transit industry. At the recently concluded "Rail Live 2025" exhibition, Qingdao Honrock Rail Transit Equipment Co., Ltd. presented its latest R&D achievements, demonstrating the exceptional capabilities of China's rail transit supporting industry to the world. Following its debut at the InnoTrans show in Germany last year, this marks Honrock's second appearance at a core European rail exhibition, signaling this Chinese enterprise's deepening commitment and breakthroughs in the international market.

Innovative Product Portfolio: A Leap from "Made in China" to "Intelligent Manufacturing in China"

The exhibited product lines reflect Honrock's comprehensive presence in the rail transit supporting sector.

Cylinder Lock Series: These products garnered significant attention from professional visitors due to their outstanding mechanical durability and safety-focused design. They exemplify a "human-centric" design philosophy, achieved not only through meticulous material selection but also by incorporating ergonomic considerations into their structural design.

Interior Lock Series: This series showcases Honrock's profound expertise in precision manufacturing. The products strike a balance between aesthetics and functionality, seamlessly integrating with train interiors to provide passengers with both secure and convenient experiences.

Combination Lock Series: Representing the company's foray into intelligent solutions. As rail transit evolves towards greater intelligence, smart locking systems are emerging as an industry demand. Honrock's combination lock series integrates advanced electronic technology to offer multi-layered security solutions.

Roller Shutter Products: These attracted notable interest for their lightweight and high-strength characteristics. Aligned with the global trend towards lighter rail vehicles, such products contribute to reducing overall weight while enhancing interior aesthetics and practicality, meeting modern trains' new requirements for material performance.

International Recognition: In-Depth Engagement with Industry Giants

At the exhibition, Honrock's products captured the interest of international rail transit leaders such as Siemens, Talgo, and Alstom. Representatives visited the Honrock booth for in-depth discussions on product performance, technical specifications, and potential collaboration.

A representative from a renowned European train manufacturer remarked, "Honrock's products not only meet international quality standards but also align closely with European market demands in their design philosophy. Their attention to detail and professional technical support are impressive."

This recognition from top-tier international clients affirms not only the quality of Honrock's products but also the overall standard of China's rail transit supporting industry. Within the global rail supply chain, Chinese supporting enterprises are transitioning from "followers" to "parallel runners" and even "front runners."

Honrock's successful showcase in Madrid epitomizes the internationalization of China's rail transit industry. In recent years, Chinese rail enterprises have made breakthroughs not only in complete vehicle manufacturing but also in enhancing their international influence in supporting industries, core technologies, and standard-setting. The success in Madrid lays a solid foundation for Honrock's further expansion into the European market. As the birthplace of rail technology and a high-end market with stringent demands for product quality and innovation, Europe's recognition of Honrock fully demonstrates its technical prowess and product competitiveness. Looking ahead, as the global rail industry advances towards greater intelligence, sustainability, and user-friendliness, Honrock will continue to adhere to innovation-driven development, deepen its focus on niche markets, and collaborate with domestic and international partners to jointly propel the progress and development of the rail transit industry.
