Sri Lanka, traditionally known for its rich deposits of high-grade graphite and gemstones, is witnessing a significant transformation in its industrial and mining sectors. As the demand for mineral resources increases globally, Sri Lankan mining operations are shifting from traditional methods to mechanized, high-efficiency systems. This is where Longwall Chock Carriers and heavy-duty shovel loaders play a critical role.
While Sri Lanka might not be a primary coal producer, its strategic position as a South Asian maritime hub (Colombo and Hambantota Ports) makes it a vital exporter and transshipment base for heavy mining machinery. Local companies are increasingly looking for robust equipment capable of navigating the complex geological conditions of underground graphite mines, such as those in Bogala and Kahatagaha.
Shaanxi Kelong New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. was founded in 1996, which grew from Xianyang Kelong Rubber Products Institute.
It Is a Technological innovation company integrating R&D, production and sales, concentrates on hydraulic seal set, high-pressure hose, coal mine auxiliary transportation equipment, repairing coal mine auxiliary transportation equipment, technological service and ect. The products has been widely applied to Coal mining industry, Civil Aviation, High speed railway, Engineering machinery, Wind power and etc. The high-quality products and services are trusted by customers all over the world.
The company is the top three in the domestic coal machine sealing industry. High-pressure rubber hoses and Frame-type handling vehicles are expected to enter the top three within two years. The main products share 8% in the domestic market.

The industry is moving towards autonomous chock carriers. By integrating AI-driven sensors and remote-control systems, mining companies in Sri Lanka can significantly reduce human exposure to hazardous underground environments.
Modern carriers utilize ultra-high-pressure hoses and advanced sealing technology (like those imported from DMH Austria) to ensure zero-leakage and maximum lifting power for hydraulic supports weighing up to 80 tons.
There is a growing trend for "Green Mining." Manufacturers are focusing on lower emission diesel engines and electric hybrid shovel loaders to meet the tightening environmental regulations in the South Asian region.
Ultra-tough, high-pressure hydraulic hose for rock-solid machinery performance in deep Sri Lankan graphite shafts.
Rigorously tested stability systems used in port construction projects in Colombo.
Innovative designs combining flexibility and strength for the maritime energy sector.
Boasting over 500 employees, nearly 180 of whom are engineers and technicians, along with an R&D center and 7%+ annual R&D investment.
With ISO and IRIS certifications, our professional team conducts strict checks throughout the production process.
Sealing products adopt DMH Company (Austria) tech, and our hydraulic hose base uses equipment imported from Italy.
The geographic location of Sri Lanka provides a unique advantage for the distribution of Longwall Chock Carriers throughout South Asia and East Africa. Companies operating out of Sri Lanka can leverage the Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and the robust logistics network to export high-end Chinese-manufactured mining equipment like the WC80Y Support Truck to neighboring markets.
Furthermore, local infrastructure projects, including tunneling for hydropower and subway systems, require the same heavy-duty hydraulic and auxiliary transportation technology used in deep coal mining. This cross-industry application makes Kelong's products essential for Sri Lanka's ongoing development.
When selecting a Longwall Chock Carrier for operations in Sri Lanka or the surrounding region, several technical factors must be considered. First is the payload capacity. Our range covers everything from the WC25E (25 tons) to the massive WC80Y (80 tons), ensuring that no matter the size of your hydraulic supports, we have a vehicle designed to move them safely through narrow underground tunnels.
The second factor is the propulsion system. In underground mining, air quality is paramount. Our diesel shovel loaders are engineered with advanced emission control systems to minimize the environmental footprint. For exporters in Sri Lanka looking to provide equipment to the Indian or African coal belts, these features are essential for meeting international safety and health standards.
Kelong New Materials doesn't just provide the vehicles; we provide the lifeblood of the machinery—the hydraulic seals and hoses. By utilizing production technology from DMH Company in Austria and equipment from Italy, we ensure that every component can withstand the extreme pressures of underground work. Our 304 Stainless Steel Braided Flexible Gas Hoses and PTFE Braided Hoses are designed for longevity, reducing maintenance downtime for Sri Lankan industrial operators.
Our commitment to R&D, which accounts for over 7% of our annual income, ensures that we stay at the forefront of the industry. We are not just a supplier; we are a technological partner for the mining and heavy machinery sectors in Sri Lanka.
