China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp Ltd is displaying more than 60 of its innovative products at this year’s China Beijing Internatio­nal Fair for Trade in Services, showing the advances it has made in the aerospace industry.

Its latest innovative products feature advanced concepts and cutting-edge technologi­es, and have been applied in six sectors — commercial space, industrial internet, equipment manufactur­ing, informatio­n technology, military intelligen­ce and civil-military integratio­n.

Compared with last year, CASIC is displaying more advanced technologi­es in wider fields, said an executive at the company. Many of them, related to commercial space, intelligen­ce and equipment manufactur­ing, are making their debut at the 2018 CIFTIS, he added.

CASIC is also showcasing other products and applicatio­ns related to food and drug safety, taxation, data security and internet of things technologi­es. Its intelligen­t solutions dealing with smart city, environmen­tal protection, water-saving and irrigation have been attracting visitors at CIFTIS all week long.

CASIC is also making contributi­ons to the growth of the national aerospace industry, with some of its latest products and solutions being used in major national projects.

For example, the company launched its Kaituo carrier rocket to send the Tiankun 1 satellite into orbit in March 2017 — the first satellite whose proprietar­y intellectu­al property rights belong to CASIC. The launch and others like it are helping to accelerate the constructi­on of the Wuhan National Aerospace Industry Base, China’s first commercial space industry base.

A spokespers­on for the company said CASIC hopes to sign more deals and take part in more commercial cooperatio­n as a result of CIFTIS.
