TGW is strengthening its presence in Asia with the launch of a new production facility in Changzhou, China.

After a year of close collaboration between TGW China and Austrian-headquartered TGW Mechanics, TGW Logistics Equipment Production Co., Ltd was officially launched last month with a traditional fireworks celebration.

The new production facility will allow the Chinese operation to supply high quality TGW carton and tote conveyors to the local market, in addition to strengthening its business across Asia. This will mean that customers will benefit from drastically reduced delivery costs, while being assured that well-known TGW quality is guaranteed.

'We are happy to be able to provide a better service to the logistics and material handling industry in China and Asia,' says Mark Chua, Managing Director of TGW China. 'We are able to further increase our competitiveness in the market by providing TGW quality on the Asian continent.' 

Christoph Wolkerstorfer, Managing Director of TGW Mechanics adds: 'This is another exciting milestone in TGW’s growth as we improve on our position as a leading worldwide provider of intralogistics solutions. 

'In addition to the support that TGW integration offers in the core markets of apparel, grocery and general merchandise, we can now provide a technically established, competitive conveyor package for our partners installing solutions in Asia and Australia.'
