It also developed an adhesive with waste and succeeded in making adhesive for innersole of shoes with domestic raw materials after adopting the localization of raw and other materials and recycling as its strategy for producing multi-variety, diverse, multi-color and light shoes.
It is now pushing ahead with the work to develop new shoetree, improve the sole mold and update the equipment.
