In February 2026, just after the Spring Festival, the production base of Yueyang Kaimite Electronic Special Rare Gases Co., Ltd. was already bustling with activity. Almost at the same time, the company received exciting news from overseas: its lithography gas products had officially been added to the list of qualified suppliers for ASML, the global giant in lithography equipment. From its founding in 2018 to now, having secured certifications from international industry leaders such as ASML and Japan’s GIGAPHOTON, Yueyang Kaimite has completed a journey from catching up to running neck and neck with the world’s top players in less than eight years.
Decoding Strength: Building Core Competitiveness Through Three Key Dimensions
1. Certification Dimension: Obtain the Industry’s “Top-Tier” Pass
May 2025: Lithography gas products (Kr/Ne, Ar/Ne/Xe) are certified by GIGAPHOTON Co., Ltd. of Japan.
Early 2026: Approved by ASML subsidiary Cymer and added to the list of qualified suppliers.
At the same time, the company’s products have long since passed supplier audits conducted by international giants such as Air Liquide Group in France.
2. Performance Dimension: A Historic Turning Point Has Been Reached
The 2025 annual performance forecast released by the parent company, Kaimite Gas, indicates that net profit is expected to reach between 65 million and 80 million yuan, successfully turning a loss into a profit. The announcement notes that the improvement in performance is primarily driven by the steady growth of revenue from core businesses such as electronic specialty gases. On the investor interaction platform, the company explicitly stated that it “will continue to vigorously expand its presence in the electronic specialty gas market,” signaling that market expansion has entered high gear.
3. Capacity and Technology: End-to-End Self-Reliance and Controllability
Production Facilities: We have constructed 12 sets of specialized electronic gas purification and blending production units.
Testing Capabilities: A professional high-purity gas analysis laboratory equipped with more than 40 imported analytical instruments, including ICP-MS, GC-MS, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometers.
Flagship products: F2/Kr/Ne, F2/Ar/Ne, Kr/Ne, and Ar/Xe/Ne mixed gases have passed certification by the original equipment manufacturers of relevant international equipment and are exported to numerous renowned semiconductor companies worldwide.
The company’s development is inseparable from the fertile ground of the local community. In February 2026, the Yueyang Municipal Market Supervision Administration made a special trip to Yueyang Kaimite to conduct “Year-End Safeguard” supervision and inspection, commending the company’s efforts in ensuring safe production and fulfilling its principal responsibilities, thereby providing strong support for the company’s high‑quality development.
From “chokehold” concerns to “Made in China,” and then to “global selection,” the growth story of Yueyang Kaimite is a microcosm of the rise of China’s electronic specialty gas industry. The company’s products are now widely used in key sectors of the national economy, including semiconductors, display panels, aerospace, and healthcare. “We want to do our part to help the nation resolve its ‘chokehold’ issues,” says the company’s original aspiration—and the driving force behind its continued progress. Looking ahead, Yueyang Kaimite will continue to deepen its expertise in the field of electronic specialty gases, delivering an endless supply of “China-made gas” to global chip manufacturing with products of unparalleled purity and services that earn worldwide trust.
