Based in the Songjiang District of Shanghai, Shanghai LEE'S FUDA Electromechanical Science & Technology Co., Ltd. serves the global maritime industry as a specialized provider of marine environmental protection solutions and electromechanical equipment. Emerging from a broader industrial group with roots tracing back to the late 1980s, the company has evolved into a high-tech entity focused heavily on complying with international maritime environmental regulations. Its primary mandate involves the research, development, and manufacturing of systems designed to mitigate the ecological impact of commercial shipping, specifically regarding the transfer of invasive aquatic species.
The core of the company’s maritime identity revolves around its Ballast Water Management Systems (BWMS). Operating under the brand name LeesGreen, the company designs and produces equipment that treats ballast water to meet strict standards set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other regulatory bodies. Their technology typically employs a combination of filtration and ultraviolet (UV) radiation to neutralize marine organisms without the use of active chemical substances. This focus places the company directly in the supply chain for both new shipbuilding projects and the complex retrofitting market, where older vessels require substantial engineering modifications to achieve compliance.
Beyond manufacturing, Shanghai LEE'S FUDA functions as a comprehensive technical service provider. Recognizing the logistical challenges shipowners face when upgrading operational vessels, the company offers end-to-end engineering support. This includes on-board physical surveys, 3D laser scanning to map engine room spaces, and the design of customized installation schemes that fit within the tight spatial constraints of existing machinery decks. Their involvement spans the entire project lifecycle, from the initial drawing review and class society approval to installation guidance and sea trial commissioning.
The company maintains a collaborative approach to innovation and market reach. It has established cooperative relationships with domestic academic institutions, such as Shanghai Jiao Tong University, to advance its research capabilities. On the commercial front, the organization has expanded its footprint beyond China through a network of service stations and agency partnerships across Asia, Europe, and the Americas. These alliances allow the company to provide timely technical support and spare parts to vessels trading on major international routes. While its primary reputation rests on ballast water treatment, the company also engages in ship repair services and acts as a business agency within the sector, leveraging its engineering background to support broader fleet maintenance and operational needs.
