The reporter learned from Digang Town, Fanchang, Wuhu that the Meishan Campus of Sichuan University, which is under construction, has quietly "covered" with "super waterproof" clay tiles produced by the town's enterprise Daxiang Group. This "Wuhu-made" tile, with its simple and elegant texture, adds a unique cultural heritage to the century-old institution.
The first phase of the Meishan Campus of Sichuan University is located in Mindong New District, Dongpo District, Meishan City. The first phase investment scale is about 3.2 billion yuan, covering an area of more than 1,000 acres and a total construction area of about 341,100 square meters. It includes 21 single buildings such as the comprehensive scientific research building, scientific research pilot platform, water conservancy laboratory, library, gymnasium, and Dongpo Academy. It is reported that the first phase of the Meishan Campus of Sichuan University will be completed and put into use this year. After the completion of the project, it will benchmark against world-class universities.
According to the relevant person in charge of Digang Town, Fanchang District, at the beginning of the new year of 2025, the relevant team of the Meishan Campus project of Sichuan University visited many companies on the spot. After multiple rounds of competition and selection such as scheme display and performance testing, this "Wuhu-made" super waterproof clay tile stood out among many clay tile companies and successfully entered the Sichuan University Meishan New Campus Ceramic Tile Construction Project. As of the end of April, Daxiang Group has shipped more than 200,000 pieces of clay tiles, and the delivery progress has exceeded 50%.
"Let the world's roofs flow with Wuhu DNA!" It is also understood that this craft product that combines the ceramic genes of Fanchang Kiln with modern technology has also successfully gone abroad and is exported to Russia, Singapore, Malaysia and other countries, allowing "Wuhu-made" to go to the dome of global buildings.
