Hailun Pianos
The Hailun Company was originally the Ningbo Piano Parts Factory. What began as a company that produced the most sought after, highest quality parts for pianos all over the world has evolved into an award winning piano manufacturer. With more than 20 years of successful manufacturing experience, Hailun has become the standard for Chinese piano manufacturing. Fifteen years ago they begain making complete pianos for well know western companies. Then the owner the Hailun Chen decided that he wanted to make the best pianos coming from Asia and to put his own name on them. So he has hired the best designers, piano engineers, and technicial staff from Japan, thr US and Europe to help him design and build Hailun Pianos.

Hailun employs the newest and most advanced technology available to the piano industry to produce their exceptional musical instruments. Five-Axis machining is used throughout the production process. Hailun adopted the Japanese high-tech processing mode to ensure all components in the piano are accurately machined. This differentiates Hailun Pianos from other Chinese piano manufacturers. Also they are different in that this piano company is not a hugh communist owned factory making low priced pianos for many companies all looking for the cheapest price.
The very modern factory, the quality factory engineers, and the drive to build quality pianos got Hailun Chen the business of building pianos for famious companies of the west. Then the design engineers and quality piano designs are the reason for the wonderful sound of Hailun pianos. This wonderful sound comes from high quality pianos which are durable and stable and finished to a very high standard. This is because Hailun has combined nearly 20 years of experience in creating piano parts utilizing special European processing technology. Also Hailun pianos use high quality German strings, soundboards, felt and hammers on many of their pianos. This has made the sound of the Hailun pianos stable and easy to tune.
