Our History

Shanghai LIRI is based on the Shanghai Light Industry Research Institute founded in 1958. Participating actively in the market-oriented reform in China since 1980s, LIRI has grown into a high-tech group enterprise with several subsidiary and branch companies.

In new era we regard “Protecting Environment, Saving Resource, and Benefiting Ecology” as our duty, and take high technologies of information, new materials, optical-mechanical-electronic integration, etc. as mainstay to organize and develop all our businesses. “Protection of water environment, saving of water and water related resources” have become its core business.

The superior technologies and products of Shanghai Light Industry Research Institute not only serve the light industries but also have penetrated into auto, iron & steel, electronics, pharmaceutical, building materials and other relevant industries, and have also entered the international market.
