On September 1, a delegation from a leading Japanese general contractor visited the Huzhou factory of Beijing FangShi Robotics Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "FangShi Robotics" or the "Company") for an on-site inspection and in-depth exchanges regarding the Company's construction robot product matrix and the application of "embodied intelligence + large model" AI solutions in the construction industry. Vice General Manager Zhu Haiting and Engineering Director Wang Lei received the delegation and extended a warm welcome.

The delegation comprised experts in infrastructure construction, public works, and regional industrial research. The visit aimed to gain a comprehensive understanding of FangShi Robotics' technical expertise and product deployment capabilities in intelligent construction.

Addressing Key Pain Points in Japan's Construction Industry: Urgent Need for Smart Transformation

Currently, Japan's construction industry is facing an unprecedented labor shortage challenge. According to the labor force survey by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, as of 2025, skilled construction workers in Japan's construction sector numbered only 2.99 million, a 24% decrease compared to 20 years ago. Among practitioners, those aged 55 and above account for as high as 37%, while those under 29 account for only 12%. The worsening aging demographic has caused traditional construction craftsmanship to face a generational gap, leading to the temporary hold of certain urban renewal and renovation projects.

Against this background, the exploration of intelligent robotics applications in Japan's construction industry continues to accelerate. Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism explicitly pointed out in its white paper that it is necessary to promote labor savings and labor reduction in the construction sector through new technologies such as digitalization, AI, and robotics. This series of industry trends indicates that demand for intelligent construction solutions in the Japanese market is entering a period of rapid growth.

In-Depth Exchanges and Field Inspection: Full-Scenario Product Matrix Demonstrates Strength

During the exchange session, FangShi Robotics presented the visiting guests with a detailed overview of its product matrix, technology roadmap, real-world application cases, and global business expansion. Deeply integrating cutting-edge technologies like BIM, AI, and big data, the Company has developed an "embodied intelligence + large model" AI solution tailored for complex construction scenarios, dedicated to driving the traditional construction industry's transition toward an intelligent construction model.

Following the meeting, the delegation toured the factory floor. FangShi Robotics presented key construction robots covering various processes, including concrete floor construction, interior paint spraying, interior thin-set tile laying, and heavy stone tile laying. Compared to traditional manual labor, this robotic series can reduce labor costs by at least 60% while boosting work efficiency by over 3 to 5 times. The systematic solutions and exceptional product performance captured strong interest from the delegation. They highly praised the self-developed and manufactured construction robots and expressed keen anticipation for future collaboration.

A representative of the delegation noted that FangShi Robotics' product matrix and technology roadmap align closely with the direction of Japan's smart construction transformation. The solutions demonstrate significant value, particularly in mitigating labor shortages and improving construction efficiency and safety. The representative added that they look forward to introducing FangShi Robotics' intelligent solutions across more construction scenarios in the future.

FangShi Robotics Deepens Presence in Japan: Exploring New Global Smart Construction Opportunities

Would you like to move on to translating the final section of the press release, or should we refine any of these paragraphs first?

FangShi Robotics' expansion into the Japanese market has already yielded initial results. Previously, the Company established deep collaborations with leading Japanese construction firms and successfully completed batch deliveries of multiple robot products tailored for the Japanese market. This demonstrates that FangShi Robotics' products have earned substantive recognition in Japan's construction sector, known for its rigorous technical standards and stringent quality requirements.

Currently, FangShi Robotics' intelligent solutions have expanded across 7 major regions, covering over 10 countries across Southeast Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines), Northeast Asia (Japan), South Asia (India), the GCC (UAE, Saudi Arabia), Oceania (Australia), Eastern Europe (Russia), and Southern Europe (Croatia). The Company's robotic fleet has executed a cumulative construction area exceeding 15 million square meters.

The visit by the Japanese delegation built a friendly bridge for international cooperation and exchange. It serves not only as full validation of FangShi Robotics' technical expertise and product quality, but also marks a new phase in the Company's business expansion in the Japanese market.

Moving forward, FangShi Robotics will continue to drive technical innovation, deepen its global footprint, and empower the global construction industry's transformation and upgrading with leading intelligent construction solutions.
