Tianlong Cylinders China — R&D, Production & Export Hub
Tianlong Cylinders China has manufactured LPG steel cylinders since 1993. As our R&D and export headquarters, the China facility integrates engineering, automated production lines, centralized quality control, and export logistics to deliver OEM and bulk cylinder supply to distributors worldwide.
R&D & Engineering Capabilities
Tianlong China houses a dedicated R&D and engineering center that supports product design, material selection, and valve/system configuration for diverse international markets. Our engineering scope includes:
Concept & structural design (CAD / CAE) for cylinder geometry and valve interfaces.
Material engineering: steels selection, coatings and corrosion resistance studies.
Valve & connector compatibility engineering for region-specific fittings.
Prototyping and pilot runs to validate new designs before scale production.
Our R&D team works closely with regional factories to ensure new designs are manufacturable, safe, and market-compliant.
Machinery & Production Line
Each critical machine area includes monitoring and data-logging to support preventive maintenance and quality traceability.
Certifications & Compliance
Tianlong China maintains company-level and product-level credentials supporting international trade:
ISO 9001 — Quality Management System (since 1998).
ISO 14001 — Environmental Management (since 2016).
ISO 45001 — Occupational Health & Safety (corporate commitment).
Product-level approvals such as CE and third-party inspections (BV and other agencies) where applicable.
Certificates and market-specific test reports are available on request depending on destination country requirements.
Advantages of Chinese factories

Capacity, Output & Historical Snapshot
Historical snapshot: in 2015 Tianlong’s overall production reached ~1.8 million cylinders (company-wide) with ~80% exported to 45+ countries. China site capacity: [PLACEHOLDER: insert current annual capacity / per-line capacity]. Scalability: multiple lines allow flexible batch sizing — from sample orders to full 40HQ container production runs. Replace the placeholder with exact current capacity numbers from factory operations.
OEM, Customization & Embossing
We provide full OEM services and customization for B2B partners: Custom embossing (brand, capacity, serial numbers) on cylinder body. Customized valve configurations and fittings to meet local market standards. Private-label packaging, palletization and bespoke packing lists. Technical collaboration for product modifications and market-specific tests. (For artwork and embossing templates, share vector artwork (AI/EPS) and capacity/serial specification with our engineering team.)
Packaging, Export & Logistics
China factory handles export-ready packing and logistics: Export packing: palletized, shrink-wrapped, export crates as per customer spec. Container loading and weight / dimension verification. Documentation support: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, test certificates, MSDS. Regional shipping routes: regular export lanes to Africa, Europe, Americas and Southeast Asia.
