ERJ staff report (DS)

Xingtai, China - Trelleborg has inaugurated a new manufacturing facility in Xingtai, Hebei, China to manufacture high-performance specialty, primarily agricultural tyres.

The site produces both radial and bias technology tyres for farming, forestry and agro-industrial applications. It will serve the needs of Trelleborg's partners by providing local supply to their Chinese facilities, and just as importantly to local manufacturers.

The Trelleborg group has several manufacturing facilities in China, in Huizhou, Shanghai, Wuxi, Qingdao and Xingtai. The facilities manufacture a broad range of Trelleborg's engineered products and solutions based on polymer technology, such as marine systems, specialty components, industrial antivibration, agricultural tyres, printing solutions and precision seals, among others. In addition, there are a couple of development centers in Shanghai for sealing solutions and vibration damping, as well as several market offices to effectively cultivate the local market. Trelleborg has approximately 1,500 employees in China and sales in 2011 amounted to nearly 1,100 million SEK.
