Fully automatic soap making machines have been successfully put into production in Ghana, helping to upgrade the local daily chemical industry.

(Acra, Ghana) – Today, a fully automated soap-making machine independently developed by our company was successfully installed and commissioned in Ghana and has officially commenced operation. This marks the successful establishment of
West Africa's first high-capacity, fully automated intelligent soap production line, which is of great significance for enhancing Ghana's self-sufficiency in daily chemical products and promoting industrial modernization.
Located in a partner factory in Ghana's Tema Industrial Park, the equipment utilizes the latest intelligent temperature control, automatic proportioning, and high-speed molding technologies, enabling fully automated production from raw material mixing,
saponification, pressing to cutting. Compared to traditional manual or semi-automatic equipment, this machine increases production efficiency by nearly five times, reduces energy consumption by approximately 25%,
and produces more consistent product quality and meets higher hygiene standards.
The head of the Ghanaian partner stated, "The successful operation of this machine will completely change our reliance on imported finished or semi-finished soap products. Now we can stably produce over 50,000 bars of standard soap and laundry
soap daily, not only meeting local market demand but also potentially exporting to neighboring countries such as Togo and Côte d'Ivoire in the future."
During the project's implementation, the Chinese technical team overcame multiple challenges, including logistics, power supply adjustments, and the effects of high-temperature environments. They completed installation and trial operation
within two weeks and provided systematic operation and maintenance training for local employees. Currently, 12 Ghanaian technicians have obtained independent work qualifications.
During an inspection of the production line, a representative from Ghana's Ministry of Trade and Industry noted, "This is another tangible achievement in Ghana's 'One Zone, One Factory' strategy. Introducing efficient and energy-saving automated
equipment not only reduces dependence on imported daily necessities but also creates stable employment and drives the development of upstream and downstream supply chains."
With the successful operation of the fully automated soap machine, the company plans to continue promoting similar equipment in other key African markets this year, and provide customized formulas and packaging solutions to help more African
countries establish independent daily chemical production capabilities.
