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. In 1986, HAILUN became an independent company and employs the newest and most advanced technology available to the piano industry to produce their exceptional musical instruments.

Since 2001, HAILUN has invested heavily in Japanese digital equipment and hired some of the finest names in piano design and production.

The Chief Designer and Lead Engineer for HAILUN is American George F. Emerson. With 32 years of piano design experience with well-known companies such as Baldwin Piano and Organ as well as Mason & Hamlin, Mr. Emerson’s unique expertise has lead to innovative contributions to Hailun’s production work.

Director of Tuning, Voicing and Sound quality are the purview of European Zlatkovic Sibin. Mr. Sibin counts 20 years in the industry and was affiliated with the famous European piano builder Bösendorfer.

Senior Technical Advisor, Austrian Peter Veletzky, has spent his life in the piano building business. He became, at the age of 22, the youngest person in Austria at that time to become a licensed piano producer.

Ema Shigeru of Japan serves as Production Director for Grand Pianos. With over 30 years of experience with Kawai, Mr. Shigeru also worked at Asahi. Personally examining every grand piano produced at HAILUN, Mr. Shigeru’s dedication and commitment to excellence are evidenced by the consistent quality of Hailun Grands.

Stephen Paulello a French piano designer, is also concert pianist and a university professor for piano and chamber music. Completed his education as a piano technician with Bechstein and Steinway & Sons and was in charge of concert service for Bechstein in Paris. His grand piano designs have won numerous awards including a BA from the French Ministry for Culture. He is also responsible for the training and education of piano technicians in France, including the master associations AFARP and ITEMM.

The vision displayed by the HAILUN Company has merged high-tech numerically controlled production, with the artistic and revolutionary assembly processes of the world renowned European and American piano tradition. With an astonishing 80% of it's production being exported to the United States, Europe and Japan, HAILUN pianos have received international praise and acclaim.

In 2005, CCTV reported that HAILUN pianos had entered into the mainstream piano market with a quality instrument that meets European standards. Prestigious European owners such as the University of Music, Austrian University of Music Brussels Conservatories, Paris Chamber, Henry wood Hall London and Wien Music Seminar Vienna Musikverein, Vienna are experiencing the quality and performance of HAILUN. In 2005, the European Chinese Association held a peace celebration: HAILUN Company was once again chosen and featured in a performance at the Golden Concert Hall in Vienna. This event was made more significant because it was the first time a Chinese made piano was featured in the Viennese Golden Concert Hall.

In 2006, the HAILUN piano receives an award "China's Top Brand Name". This award, presented only once every three years, has only been awarded to three other manufacturers of China's 200 piano producing companies'. This marks the First time that a privately held non-government company has been awarded this very distinguished honor.

With more than 260 piano dealers in Europe, more than 40 dealers in Japan, and a growing dealer network in the United States, the HAILUN Company is a global influence in piano manufacturing.
