High-precision road paving and material production plants engineered for high-density urban transport arteries and strict European environmental thresholds.
Navigating strict urban environmental regulations, micro-mobility expansions, and legacy pavement rehabilitation across Île-de-France.
The Paris metropolitan area, home to over 12 million residents, presents a unique urban civil engineering environment. With the implementation of the strict Zone à Faibles Émissions (ZFE-m) across the Boulevard Périphérique and inner-ring communes, contractors face unparalleled operational constraints. Road construction and maintenance machinery operating in this territory must adhere to European Stage V emission norms, low noise signature thresholds for night-shift paving, and minimal footprints for narrow historic thoroughfares.
The ongoing expansion of the Grand Paris Express network demands robust road resurfacing, heavy-duty logistics access corridor reinforcement, and specialized trenching backfill compaction. Equipment deployed serving Paris factories must provide seamless interoperability with cold in-place asphalt recycling (CIPR) technologies to minimize material haulage across congested arterial networks such as the A86 duplex and the A1 highway link.
Founded by university professors and highway machinery pioneers in 1998, delivering scientific precision to global road building.
Our engineering division leverages advanced dynamic finite element analysis (FEA) to eliminate frame stress concentrations in high-impact road milling machines and heavy asphalt pavers, guaranteeing structural integrity under intense continuous load cycles.
By synchronizing high-torque multi-stage diesel and hydraulic drive systems, our machines achieve optimal fuel efficiency curves—reducing fuel consumption per paved ton by up to 18% compared to standard factory benchmarks.
Incorporating intelligent digital electronic control systems, our bitumen distributors and synchronized chip sealers provide millimeter-level application precision via dynamic feedback sensors and automated flow control.
Strategic technological developments driving the next decade of road construction and maintenance machinery worldwide.

Customized engineering configurations engineered for specific urban maintenance challenges in France.
Equipped with ultra-quiet hydraulic pumps, sound-proof engine compartments, and high-lumen LED lighting matrices, our pavers allow municipal contractors to mill and resurface heavy avenues like Champs-Élysées during night windows without violating decibel limits.
Compact milling machines and versatile micro-surfacing slurry pavers designed with ultra-small turning radiuses operate flawlessly in tight historic districts (such as Le Marais or Montmartre), protecting historic masonry while restoring structural integrity.
Our high-capacity asphalt paver feeders and synchronized chip sealers process continuous high-volume material delivery, preventing thermal segregation and minimizing traffic disruption during lane rehabilitation cycles.
From Chang'an University research laboratories to a global exporter serving over 60 countries and major industrial hubs worldwide.
HEM Group was founded in 1998 by a group of distinguished professors from Chang'an University and seasoned road building industry experts, initially operating as Xi'an Hongda Communications Technology Co., Ltd. It stands as the earliest high-tech enterprise dedicated to independent research and design of road construction equipment in China.
Since its inception, the company has adhered strictly to high-tech research guidance aimed at creating an international brand for construction machinery. Our continuous R&D investment has yielded numerous invention patents in mechanical dynamics, engine power matching, hydraulic transmission technology, and digital electronic control. In 2006, HEM Group was officially recognized as a "High-tech Enterprise" by the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Science and Technology.
In 2017, to streamline international trade and direct global client support, the dedicated export organization—HME TOP Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd.—was established. Today, our 5,000 m² modern manufacturing base delivers an annual capacity exceeding 5,000 units, backing a complete end-to-end chain of road maintenance machinery and earthmoving heavy equipment.
Our equipment is deployed across more than 60 countries and regions, including France, India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Nigeria, South Africa, Eritrea, Mozambique, Congo, Australia, Fiji, Bolivia, and beyond. To ensure maximum operational uptime, direct service teams and parts depots are established in key regional hubs, including Russia, Malaysia, South Africa, Uzbekistan, Ghana, Kenya, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka.
