Zhuzhou Times New Material Technology Co., Ltd. known also as TMT, is a Chinese plastic manufacturer based in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province. The company also produced mica.
The predecessor of TMT was found as a research division of Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Research Institute (now, formerly CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Research Institute Co., Ltd.) in 1984.[1] It followed the direct parent company to become part of CSR Group in 2002 (spin off from the Ministry of Railways' LORIC). On 19 December 2002 the company became a listed company.[2]
In 2007 CSR Group spin off CSR Corporation Limited as the new holding company for CSR Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Research Institute, as well as also listed in the stock exchange. In 2015, TMT became an indirect subsidiary of CRRC Group and its listed flagship CRRC.
