WEISHILONG Rubber Rollers: Technical Heritage · Manufacturing Practice · Continuous Innovation

The rubber roller technology of SXPP and Bogesi originates in a collaboration between Britain and China, a legacy that now continues in Malaysia.

Bogesi’s predecessor was 威士龙印刷器材(安徽)有限责任公司, a Sino-foreign joint venture. British rubber roller specialists David George Whitmore and Nigel Raymond Prosser were both British investors in the company and important contributors to this transfer of expertise. They brought British rubber roller manufacturing knowledge and their many years of practical experience to China, laying an important foundation for Bogesi’s technological development.

Sadly, David passed away during the COVID-19 pandemic. We remember him with affection and honour his contribution to this collaboration and the passing on of technical expertise.

Today, Bogesi continues this manufacturing experience in China, while SXPP develops its rubber roller business in Malaysia. The connection is practical: knowledge of materials, roller construction and the needs of printing production.

For us, carrying this legacy forward means understanding and mastering each process, and continually improving through practice so that our accumulated knowledge better serves customers’ real needs. This is how we honour our history and fulfil our responsibility to the future.
