近期，无锡宝通科技股份有限公司与全球矿业巨头必和必拓（BHP）在宝通创享中心隆重举行全球框架协议（GFA）签署仪式。双方正式建立全球核心战略合作伙伴关系，合作从产品供应全面升级为技术共创、绿色协同、全球服务一体化的深度绑定，标志着中国工业智能输送企业与国际顶尖矿业集团的合作迈入全新阶段。
Recently, Wuxi BOTON Technology Co., Ltd. and BHP, one of the world’s leading resources companies, held a signing ceremony for a Global Framework Agreement at BOTON’s Innovation Center in Wuxi.
The agreement marks a further step in the long-term cooperation between the two companies, expanding their collaboration from product supply to broader areas including technology collaboration, sustainability, global service capability and lifecycle support for mining conveying systems. It also represents a new stage of cooperation between a Chinese intelligent industrial conveying company and a leading global mining group.
必和必拓首席商务官邬睿格（Ragnar Udd）、集团全球销售与营销总裁何睦凯（Michiel Hovers）、集团采购总裁Rashpal Bhatti、集团商务运营服务总裁Sundeep Singh等高层代表出席签约仪式。宝通董事长包志方携工业互联网执行总裁兼宝通泰国总经理唐宇、首席商务官何刚厚等高管共同出席。
Senior representatives from BHP attended the ceremony, including Ragnar Udd, Chief Commercial Officer; Michiel Hovers, Group Sales and Marketing Officer; Rashpal Bhatti, Group Procurement Officer; and Sundeep Singh, Group Officer, Global Business Services.
BOTON Chairman Bao Zhifang attended the ceremony together with senior executives including Tang Yu, Executive President of Industrial Digitalization and General Manager of BOTON Thailand, and He Ganghou, Chief Commercial Officer of BOTON.
签约仪式上，包志方董事长代表宝通致辞。他回顾双方合作历程并表示本次全球框架协议的意义远超传统商业合同，是必和必拓对宝通全球战略合作伙伴地位的正式认可与最高授权。近期必和必拓更将首个技术保障三星认证授予宝通无锡工厂，为本次全球框架协议签署筑牢信任基石。
At the signing ceremony, Chairman Bao Zhifang delivered a speech on behalf of BOTON. He reviewed the long-standing cooperation between the two companies and noted that the Global Framework Agreement carries significance beyond a conventional commercial contract. It represents strong recognition of BOTON’s role as a strategic global partner to BHP.
He also noted that BHP recently awarded BOTON the first Global Three-Star Technical Assurance Certification to BOTON’s Wuxi Factory, further strengthening the foundation of trust for the signing of the Global Framework Agreement.
必和必拓首席商务官邬睿格（Ragnar Udd）在致辞中指出输送带是矿山运营的“隐形命脉”，与宝通14年的稳定合作弥足珍贵。他高度评价宝通在技术创新、品质管控、脱碳与全球协同能力，并强调：此次协议标志着宝通从产品供应商正式升级为BHP全球战略合作伙伴。未来双方将在创新与可持续运营中深度协同，共同引领矿业绿色智能转型。
BHP Chief Commercial Officer Ragnar Udd stated that conveyor belts are the “invisible lifeline” of mining operations, and that the 14-year stable partnership with BOTON has created valuable trust between the two companies. He recognized BOTON’s capabilities in technology innovation, quality management, decarbonization and global coordination, and noted that the agreement marks an expansion of BOTON’s role from a product supplier to a strategic global partner of BHP.
Looking ahead, the two companies will deepen collaboration in innovation and sustainable operations, working together to support the green and intelligent transformation of the mining industry.
根据协议，双方将在未来打通技术、供应链、服务与战略全链条壁垒，构建长期稳定、协同高效的全球合作体系，并聚焦三大方向深化战略合作：
Under the agreement, BOTON and BHP will further connect technology, supply chain, service and strategic resources, building a long-term, stable and highly collaborative global partnership. The cooperation will focus on three key areas:
以智能共创
重塑全球矿业智能化演进路径
Co-creating intelligent solutions for advanced unattended mine conveying systems
依托埃斯康迪达铜矿“先驱项目”，规模化部署智能纵撕监测、X光数字扫描、AI自动纠偏、机器人智能输送系统等前沿智能装备。这意味着，宝通正从“产品输出者”升级为“技术标准输出者”，以中国原创技术重塑全球矿业智能化演进路径。
Building on the Pioneer Project at the Escondida copper mine, the two companies will explore the scaled deployment of advanced intelligent equipment, including smart longitudinal rip detection, X-ray digital scanning, AI-based automatic belt alignment and inspection robot systems.
This marks an important step for BOTON as it continues to move from product delivery toward deeper technology collaboration, contributing its intelligent conveying capabilities to the next stage of global mining operations.
以全生命周期碳管理，
定义矿山低碳转型新方向
Advancing full-lifecycle carbon management for low-carbon mining operations
以全球首条碳中和输送带为起点，启动“绿色供应链伙伴计划”，率先在矿业领域建立覆盖“原料—制造—使用—回收”的全生命周期碳足迹追踪体系。计划五年内实现核心产品全生命周期碳中和，并突破废旧输送带100%循环再利用技术，为全球矿山输送系统提供可复制、可推广的绿色转型范式，让减碳从理念转化为可量化的工业新常态。
Starting from the world’s first carbon-neutral conveyor belt, the two companies will launch a Green Supply Chain Partner Program and explore a full-lifecycle carbon footprint tracking system for the mining sector, covering raw materials, manufacturing, operation and recycling.
The program aims to support lifecycle carbon neutrality for core products within five years and advance technologies for the full recycling and reuse of used conveyor belts. This will help provide a replicable and scalable model for the green transformation of global mine conveying systems, turning carbon reduction from a concept into a measurable industrial practice.
以全球网络实现本地化极速服务，
赋能客户全周期运营
Strengthening localized service
through a global network
依托澳洲技术服务中心、泰国制造基地等全球化布局，宝通将在主要矿区设立“前哨服务站”，承诺24小时响应、48小时到场。将“中国速度”与“本地温度”嵌入客户每一个生产现场。通过技术、供应链与服务的全链条打通，构建长期稳定、协同高效的全球合作体系，为客户创造超越合同条款的长期价值。
Leveraging its global footprint, including the Australia Technical Service Center and Thailand manufacturing base, BOTON will further enhance localized service capabilities in major mining regions. The company plans to establish frontline service stations to support rapid response, with a target of 24-hour response and 48-hour on-site support.
By combining rapid response with local service capability, BOTON aims to support customers across the full operating lifecycle. Through the integration of technology, supply chain and service resources, the company will help build a more stable, efficient and collaborative global service system, creating long-term value beyond the terms of individual contracts.
此次签约，标志着宝通从单一输送带制造商跃升为全球工业散货物料智能输送全生命周期解决方案服务商，是公司全球化战略的重要里程碑。以此为起点，宝通将持续深耕技术创新、绿色制造与全球服务，与必和必拓共塑国际产业合作新典范，引领全球工业输送迈向零碳智能新格局。
The signing of the Global Framework Agreement represents an important milestone in BOTON’s global development. It also reflects the company’s continued transformation from a conveyor belt manufacturer into a global lifecycle solution provider for intelligent industrial bulk material conveying systems.
Moving forward, BOTON will continue to strengthen its capabilities in technology innovation, sustainable manufacturing and global service. Together with BHP, BOTON will support safer, more efficient and lower-carbon conveying operations across global mining sites, and contribute to a more intelligent and sustainable future for industrial conveying.
