On September 2, 2026, the grand opening ceremony of Weitai Group's Zhaoqing Factory, themed "New Journey · Peptide Excellence," will be held successively in Zhaoqing and Guangzhou, Guangdong. In the morning, the Zhaoqing Smart Factory opening ceremony will commence at Factory Building A8, No. 2 Wende Fifth Street, Zhaoqing High-tech Zone; in the afternoon, the new product launch and the "Medical-Research Co-creation · Cosmetics-Device Integration" themed summit will be held at Qinghe Hall, 1st Floor, Building 1, Guangzhou Baiyun International Conference Center; in the evening, a appreciation dinner will take place at the same venue, featuring surprise lucky draws.
This is not merely the completion of a new factory, but a key milestone in Weitai Group's (WESTAI Weitai Biotech) strategic upgrade from manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing. With "medical-research co-creation" as the foundation and "cosmetics-device integration" as the wings, Weitai is committed to providing partners with efficacy skincare solutions that are more technologically enriched.
From Manufacturing to Intelligent Manufacturing: Weitai's Strategic Upgrade Path
Guangdong Weitai Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Unified Social Credit Code: 91440605MA53EH1G99) was founded in 2012 with a registered capital of 50 million yuan. It is a national high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, production, and sales. Over more than a decade, Weitai has grown from a single production base to an industrial group with four major production bases in Baiyun Guangzhou, Nanhai Foshan, Ningxiang Changsha Hunan, and Zhaoqing High-tech Zone, covering a total area of over 150,000 square meters, cooperating with 800+ brands, and assisting over a hundred products in completing registration and market launch.
The commissioning of the Zhaoqing Smart Factory is another leap in Weitai's development journey. It carries not only capacity expansion but also an overall upgrade of the production model—from experience-driven to data-driven, from labor-intensive to automated collaboration, from a single base to multi-base networked scheduling. Weitai is demonstrating the weight of the word "intelligent manufacturing" through practical action.
Medical-Research Co-creation: Building an Industry-University-Research Collaborative Innovation System
"Medical-research co-creation" is not a slogan but an innovation methodology that Weitai continuously invests in. Its core lies in connecting the complete chain of "clinical needs—basic research—product development—industrialization," ensuring that R&D directions truly respond to the real needs of the market and consumers.
Continuous Accumulation of Technological Achievements
As a national high-tech enterprise, Weitai has produced over seventy technological achievements, covering peptide applications, formulation processes, quality control, efficacy evaluation, and other directions, and has participated in the formulation of 3 cosmetics industry standards. These technological achievements are not papers shelved away but are directly transformed into mass-producible, replicable process parameters and product solutions.
Industry-University-Research Collaboration
Weitai actively establishes cooperative relationships with research institutions, universities, and industry experts, conducting joint research on efficacy skincare ingredients, dosage form innovation, safety assessment, and other directions. Through industry-university-research collaboration, Weitai introduces cutting-edge scientific research into industrialization channels, shortening the distance from laboratory to production line. At the "Medical-Research Co-creation" themed summit on the afternoon of September 2, some collaborative achievements will be publicly released for the first time.
Efficacy Verification Closed Loop
In the era of efficacy skincare, "claims with evidence" is a basic requirement. Weitai has established a complete verification process from formula screening and stability testing to efficacy evaluation, ensuring that every product brought to market is supported by data. This is responsible both to brand owners and to end consumers.
Cosmetics-Device Integration: Strategic Layout of Dual-Track Collaboration
Weitai Group owns 3 cosmetics-licensed factories and 1 Class II medical device production factory, forming an industrial pattern of parallel development in cosmetics and medical devices. This "cosmetics-device integration" layout is rare in the industry, and its synergistic advantages are reflected at multiple levels.
Complementary Qualifications to Meet Diverse Needs
Cosmetics and Class II medical devices have different requirements in regulatory systems, production environments, and quality standards. Weitai possesses the production qualifications and capabilities for both types of products simultaneously, allowing brand owners to complete the layout of cosmetics and device products with the same partner, reducing multi-supplier management costs and shortening product launch cycles. Its Class II medical device factory has passed ISO 13485 medical device quality management system certification, with quality control standards aligned with international practices.
Technology Sharing, Mutual Quality Empowerment
Medical device production has extremely strict requirements for cleanliness, process control, and traceability systems. Weitai introduces the refined management experience from device production into cosmetics production lines, enhancing the overall quality control level of cosmetics production; at the same time, the accumulation in skin feel adjustment, dosage form innovation, and consumer experience in the cosmetics field also provides reference for optimizing the user experience of device products. The technology and management experience of the two tracks empower each other, forming a synergistic effect of "1+1 greater than 2."
Market Synergy, Embracing the Megatrend of Efficacy Skincare
Currently, the efficacy skincare market continues to heat up, and brand owners increasingly need "cosmetics + devices" combined product matrices to meet the needs of different scenarios and channels. Weitai's cosmetics-device integration layout precisely fits this trend, providing brand owners with complete product solutions from daily chemical lines to professional lines, from daily care to efficacy enhancement. All products are filed or registered in strict accordance with corresponding regulatory requirements, with compliance first.
Zhaoqing Smart Factory: Analysis of Digital Intelligent Manufacturing Capabilities
The Zhaoqing Smart Factory is a concentrated embodiment of Weitai's "intelligent manufacturing" philosophy. The new factory has taken digitalization and automation as core goals from the initial design.
Intelligent Production System
The factory is equipped with automated emulsification, filling, and packaging production lines, with key processes achieving equipment linkage and precise parameter control, reducing batch fluctuations caused by manual operations. Production data is collected and uploaded in real time, allowing management to grasp the operating status and output progress of each production line at any time.
Full-Process Quality Traceability
The digital quality management system covers the entire process of raw material acceptance, semi-finished product inspection, and finished product release. The testing data, operators, and release records of each batch are traceable. This system simultaneously meets the traceability requirements of cosmetics GMP and medical device quality management, providing a unified digital quality control foundation for products in both the cosmetics and device tracks.
High-Standard Production Environment
The factory is constructed in accordance with cosmetics production quality management specifications and medical device production-related requirements. The temperature, humidity, pressure difference, and cleanliness of the clean workshop are all monitored in real time and automatically regulated, providing environmental assurance for product quality.
Flexible Capacity Configuration
The production line design takes into account both large-volume orders and multi-variety small-batch needs, allowing rapid switching of categories and specifications to adapt to the capacity needs of brand owners at different development stages. Combined with the coordinated scheduling of the four major bases, delivery flexibility and risk resistance are significantly enhanced.
Four Major Bases National Layout: Synergistic Effects Continue to Release
The addition of the Zhaoqing factory has enabled Weitai Group to form a four-base layout covering South China and radiating to the central region:
- Guangzhou Baiyun Base: Close to the core area of the South China beauty industry, undertaking R&D proofing and core product production functions, with convenient transportation for brand owners to visit and communicate on-site.
- Foshan Nanhai Base: A large-scale production base with mature supply chain support and production experience, undertaking large-volume orders.

The four major bases uniformly implement Weitai Group's quality manual and standard system, and have passed certifications such as ISO 22716, US GMPC, and ISO 13485, ensuring consistent product quality across different bases. The production capacity scale of over 150,000 square meters provides solid hardware support for serving 800+ cooperative brands.
Full-Chain Cooperation Models: Covering All Stages of Brand Growth
The commissioning of the Zhaoqing Smart Factory further broadens the service boundaries of Weitai Group. Regardless of the development stage of the partner, they can find a matching cooperation method within Weitai's service system:
- OEM Processing and Private Labeling: Brand owners provide mature formulas and packaging designs, and the factory organizes production according to unified standards. Suitable for brands with existing formula accumulation that need rapid capacity expansion.
- ODM Full-Chain Service: One-stop completion from formula R&D, packaging design, filing declaration to mass production delivery, helping startup brands shorten the new product launch cycle.
- Franchise Recruitment: Providing supporting support such as brand planning, training systems, and terminal materials, helping entrepreneurs quickly enter the beauty industry.

Industry Outlook: Let the R&D Strength of Chinese Beauty Win World Respect
Currently, China's beauty industry is in a critical period of transition from scale expansion to quality improvement.
