Monband

Monband (萌帮) is a Chinese specialty fertilizer company whose roots trace back to agricultural plant-protection technical services begun in 1995. The operating company, Hebei Monband Water Soluble Fertilizer Co., Ltd. (河北萌帮水溶肥料股份有限公司), was established on 31 May 2009 and was reorganized into a joint-stock company on 29 September 2017. It is headquartered in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, with offices at the Tianshan Galaxy Plaza on Changjiang Avenue and a factory in the Xinzhaidian Industrial Park of Zhao County. The company describes itself as a global professional specialty fertilizer supplier integrating research and development, production, sales and service. Monband's product portfolio centers on water-soluble fertilizers, blended fertilizers, organic fertilizers, microbial inoculants and soil conditioners, alongside import and export of these products and agricultural technical consulting. Its branded lines include the Puli series, the Ayeboduo series, elemental products, functional products, foliar fertilizers and the Xinjiang Guyu series. The company also markets crop-specific nutrition programs for apple, grape, tomato, citrus, watermelon, strawberry, ginger and pepper, and offers fertilizer customization covering nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and micronutrients. A major strategic focus is biotechnology. Monband has developed patented silicon-releasing microorganisms such as Bacillus aryabhattai and its MBT multi-component bio-stimulant technology, which uses microbial enzymatic hydrolysis of lignite (weathered coal) to produce humic acid, fulvic acid, polysaccharides, amino acids and microbial secretions. The company states that its bio-silicon fertilizer was developed through five years of high-throughput directed screening by Chinese and American scientists, with three internationally leading technologies, granted Chinese patents and a published U.S. patent. Monband is a NEEQ (New Third Board) listed company under the stock name 萌帮股份 with the code 872623, and reports an annual specialty fertilizer capacity of 200,000 tons. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Hebei Monband Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (河北萌帮生物科技有限公司), was founded on 25 August 2020. The company emphasizes sustainable development through fertilizer and soil health, farmer support, and minimal packaging, and holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications.

Monband's history begins with agricultural plant-protection technical services that the founders started in 1995. Building on that experience in crop protection and farmer service, the operating company Hebei Monband Water Soluble Fertilizer Co., Ltd. was formally established on 31 May 2009. The company set up its Zhao County factory in 2011, located at No. 68 Huangguan Road in the Xinzhaidian Industrial Park, Zhao County, Shijiazhuang. This plant became the production base for water-soluble fertilizers, blended fertilizers, organic fertilizers and microbial inoculants, as well as soil conditioners. On 29 September 2017, the company completed an overall reorganization into a joint-stock company, a step that aligned it with China's New Third Board (NEEQ) framework. It is listed under the stock name 萌帮股份 with the stock code 872623 and is described as a NEEQ-listed enterprise with an annual specialty fertilizer capacity of 200,000 tons. On 25 August 2020, the wholly owned subsidiary Hebei Monband Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was established, concentrating the group's microbial and bio-stimulant research and development. Monband has invested in biotechnology innovation. It developed a bio-silicon fertilizer based on Bacillus aryabhattai, identified through five years of high-throughput directed screening by Chinese and American scientists; the company states the technology has three internationally leading aspects, granted Chinese patents and a published U.S. patent, with a dual gene-marker and bio-marker system. It also developed MBT (multi-component bio-stimulant technology), which uses microbial enzymatic hydrolysis of lignite (weathered coal) to produce a complex containing humic acid, fulvic acid, polysaccharides, amino acids such as beta-alanine, L-isoleucine and L-proline, and various microbial secretions. This technology relies on patented Monband biological strains including Brevibacillus sp. (patent number ZL 2021 1 0495979.4) and Variovorax sp. On 24 March 2023, the first Multi-component Bio-stimulant Development Conference was held in Shijiazhuang, hosted by China Agricultural Means of Production Media and Hebei Monband Water Soluble Fertilizer Co., Ltd. and organized by Hebei Monband Biotechnology Co., Ltd. More than 200 participants attended, including Monband's chairman and general manager Guo Xinglong, executive deputy general manager Meng Guoming, deputy general manager and senior engineer Wu Guangli, strategic and channel customers, and representatives from fertilizer enterprises such as Sinochem, Yuntu Holdings, Xinyangfeng, Xiangyun, China National Agricultural Means of Production Group and China Coal. The company released its MBT multi-component bio-stimulant technology on 27 September 2023, which it described as entering a new stage of microbial development. Monband positions itself as a global specialty fertilizer supplier serving farmers worldwide, with a stated mission to improve crop quality and yield, remediate degraded soils, enhance soil fertility, improve root environments, raise fertilizer use efficiency and reduce fertilizer application, thereby increasing growers' incomes.
