In order to meet the accelerating RFID demands in Asia, the Muehlbauer Group has opened its second production plant in Wuxi, China.

The company has established strong, long-term partnerships since the opening of the sales and service office in Shanghai ten years ago. The 11,000 square meter plant is intended to provide engineering support, local production capacity, improved technical training capabilities and a significantly expanded spare stock to the Asia markets.

The Board of Management, recognizing the growing opportunities in the sector, plans on providing better support and shortening turnaround times for the smart label and smart card industries. “With this strategic investment in Wuxi, we want to thank our valuable customers in China and Asia for our trustful and successful partnership during the last ten years,” says Thomas Betz, managing director at Muehlbauer. “Now we are doing the next steps to further grow the synergies between Germany and China in the semiconductor, smart identification and flexible solar technologies. We will do our utmost to continuously improve our local presence with a highly skilled and customer-oriented team in Wuxi.”

Muehlbauer currently stations 60 employees in Wuxi’s management, research and development, assembly, sales, service and administration divisions. It intends to expand to over 200 employees in the coming years.
