China Testing & Certification International Group Co., Ltd. (CTC, Stock Code 603060) originated from the testing and certification business of China Building Materials Academy in the 1950s. After 70 years of unremitting efforts and persistent pursuit, the company has formed five business categories: detection and testing, certification and evaluation, testing instruments and intelligent manufacturing, measurement and calibration, scientific research and technical services, committed to providing customers with technical services and comprehensive solutions of detection and testing, certification and evaluation, appraisal, consultation, training, and instruments and equipment in fields of quality, environmental protection, green, safety, health, and energy conservation.

Rock wool is a man-made inorganic fiber material produced by melting natural rocks (e.g., basalt, dolomite) at temperatures exceeding 1450°C, followed by a centrifugal process. It features high thermal insulation efficiency, Class A non-combustibility (fireproof), sound absorption and noise reduction, water repellency and moisture resistance, as well as environmental friendliness and durability. China is the world’s largest exporter of rock wool. In 2024, China’s rock wool production capacity accounted for 53% of the global total, with exports primarily going to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
