About us

The digital foundation for corrosion safety of national networks and high-end equipment.

Beijing Kerou Intelligent Protection Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd.

Beijing Kerou Intelligent Protection Technology Research Institute is located in Huairou Science City, Beijing, and focuses on materials corrosion safety for China’s national networks and high-end equipment.

The institute coordinates research across two national platforms — the National Materials Corrosion and Protection Data Center and the National Field Observation and Research Platform for Materials Corrosion — while wholly owned subsidiaries handle industrialization and engineering services.

Two national platforms, fully on board

01

National Materials Corrosion and Protection Data Center

One of the first 20 national science data centers designated by the Ministry of Science and Technology

  • China’s only national-level science data center for materials corrosion and protection
  • The world’s largest corrosion database, at the scale of 500 million records
  • Multi-source data from natural exposure, field engineering, accelerated testing and failure analysis
02

National Field Observation and Research Platform for Materials Corrosion

27 national field test stations and one platform center

  • China’s only national-level field observation and research platform for materials corrosion
  • More than 50 years of corrosion testing and data accumulation
  • A three-tier validation system: laboratory, field station and engineering site

Case

Tianyunda, Nansha, Guangzhou: cross-regional industrialization proven

It proved the full loop from research results to company operation to tax revenue, and showed that the team’s industrialization model can be replicated in Huairou.

Roadmap

Three steps: define scenarios, pilot prototypes, scale up

  1. Year 1Define scenarios

    Survey typical needs across the national networks, set up evaluation processes and data standards, and validate key methods for sensing, edge computing and modeling.

  2. Year 2Pilot prototypes

    Develop monitoring and analysis software prototypes, validate materials and coatings, run pilots in typical Huairou scenarios, and build evaluation and consulting services.

  3. Year 3Scale up

    Improve product reliability and scenario fit, roll out monitoring, intelligent assessment and protection services, and drive engineering applications.
