To whom it may concern,

We, the Association of China Refractories Industry (ACRI), take the pleasure to write you with the aim of promoting mutual understanding, exchanges and possible collaborations.

In the world refractory community, as you see, China, as the biggest refractories production base and a major market for refractories in the world, has nowadays become a increasingly important part. Facing emergent challenges, we do believe it makes sense for refractory organizations and institutions to communicate more, exchange more, share more and cooperate more. ACRI is of a big network of hundreds of refractory enterprises in China. We take it for granted that you have some interest in China, just like many of our enterprises are interested in your country, and we would like to act as a bridge between you and us. We plan to organize activities promoting international exchanges and collaborations including with your organization. To make things happen and be more successful, we need your valuable input by simply telling us your ideas, suggestions and wishes.

Please take a bit time doing the given questionnaire and return to us by e-mail at acri@china-refract.org or Fax at +86-10- 65285180 or 65282090. Thank you so much.

Looking forward to your response.

Yours sincerely,

XU Dianli, Executive Vice chairmen & Secretary-general, ACRI
