The Dujiangyan Irrigation System consists of the headworks and a network of intricate channels. The headworks section includes the Fish Mouth, Flying Sand Weir, and Bottle-Neck Channel. These three engineering marvels embody the principles of harmony between nature and humanity, forming a unified whole that scientifically addresses issues like automatic water diversion, sediment discharge, and irrigation.

This system laid the enduring foundation of Dujiangyan, known as the "indestructible golden body."

For over two millennia, Dujiangyan has diverted the surging waters of the Min River into the vast Chengdu Plain, creating the "Land of Abundance" where water and drought do not trouble the inhabitants.

This nurtured a sense of ease and comfort among the people of this "Land of Plenty," fostering a feeling of security and beauty in the hearts of the Chinese.

SupAnchor was born in Dujiangyan, growing and developing alongside the city for millennia, embodying the resilience and durability of 2500 years of hydraulic engineering.

The company adheres to stringent standards to ensure excellent product quality.

SupAnchor's anchoring products are widely used in water conservancy projects and other geotechnical engineering fields worldwide.

SupCoat is SupAnchor's permanent support product, characterized by the use of Self-Drilling Hollow Bars that undergo hot-dip galvanizing (ASTM-A153; EN ISO 1461; AS/NZS 4680) followed by an epoxy coating (ASTM D2794-93(2010); ISO 2409:2013; EN ISO 1519:2011), providing dual corrosion protection.
