CIVMATS & Its Founder
CIVMATS was established in 1989 by its first CEO Dahe He. His initial acquaintance with steel industry was in 1975 when he worked as a technician apprentice in a local steel mill. The mill produced stainless steel bars and wires. Though started from a humble background, Dahe aspired to be the best among his peers. His industriousness, fast-learning abilities and communication skills paid off. Four years later in 1979, he was promoted as the head of the mill, in charge of some 90 workers. He worked there for two more years.
In 1982 introduced by a big account, he left the mill and worked for a state-owned enterprise to chair a new workshop producing stainless steel pipes. There he worked for over six years, during which period, he worked half of his time as a workshop manager and half of his time as a sales manager.
In 1989 when he was on his business trip, he coincidently visited a stainless steel bar mill which was almost at bankruptcy. He decided to buy it with all his savings, bank loans and government funds. That’s how CIVMATS came into being.

Stainless Steel Production Line
During his tenure, Civmats stainless steel business was developed rapidly yet stably in domestic market, and the market penetration was deep. Dahe wouldn’t stop at one mill that only produces stainless steel bars. Through partnership and acquisition, in 2012 Civmats have established the complete stainless steel product lines including pipes and fittings, sheets and plates, coils and strips, as well as wires. Due to heavy business activities, Dahe established supply chain management to reduce the cost and enhance customer experience. From stainless steel mills to the customers’ warehouse, CIVMATS manages the whole process and eliminates all the risks customers have to shoulder. CIVMATS boasts its broad and one-stop stainless steel purchasing experience.
