Maag Pump Systems AG (Oberglatt, Switzerland; www.maag.com) has opened two new facilities that will serve the Chinese market.
The first is a new 4,000-m2 facility in the Jiading District of Shanghai. This larger, more spacious facility will help Maag better showcase its portfolio of pelletizer, gear pump and pulverizer products to its customers in this market, as well as highlight the capabilities of its Gala and RE Scheer brands. The facility will include production for Maag’s pumps and pelletizers as well as offices for its sales, service and after sales support. The new facility currently houses 80 employees and features the largest rotor-regrinding center in China, with the ability to process up to 2,000 rotors per year. This will all enable Maag to offer better, more complete service and solutions to its customers.
The second facility is a brand-new rotor-regrinding center in the city of Guangzhou, which will introduce Maag’s high-quality rotor-regrinding services to its large client base in the south of China. The rotor-regrinding center will offer the same high level of quality and service as that found in the Shanghai facility and Maag’s other grinding centers around the world. In addition, an applications/technical laboratory is being set up at the facility, which will allow hands-on demonstrations of all Maag products, including those from Maag, Gala and RE Scheer. Finally, the facility will be home to a new sales office for the region.
