Schreiner ProTech, a business unit of family-owned Schreiner Group based in Munich, Germany, has announced the grand opening of its new production site in China. More than 100 guests attended the ceremony celebrating the launch of the manufacturing facility in Fengpu, in the Fengxian District south of Shanghai. Customers from the automotive industry are among the business unit’s key accounts.
To ensure optimum supply of functional components and labels to their manufacturing plants, Schreiner ProTech has launched its own production operation five years after having opened a sales office in Shanghai.
High standards and quality are the hallmarks of Schreiner ProTech’s solutions. During a plant tour, guests were provided with a wealth of information about the production of the functional components and labels, the high-tech machines, the state-of-the-art air conditioning system ensuring constant indoor climatic conditions, and the certifications awarded to the operation. A supporting program featuring Bavarian and Chinese traditions complemented the event.
The production of pressure compensation seals (PCS) on a precision diecutting and laminating line, and a fully automatic, camera-controlled converting machine had already been launched at the end of October 2015–initially serving customers from the solar industry. “We attach utmost importance to our Chinese plant conforming to the same standards and high level of our German operation. We work with identical high-tech machines and apply the same quality standards to employees, processes and results,” Roland Schreiner, Schreiner Group’s CEO, said at the traditional grand opening event.
Since the beginning of 2016, the exacting requirements of EN ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949 have been implemented as well, and reviewed by internal and external audits. “Now that the top quality of our processes and machines has been officially confirmed, initial production orders from automotive customers are being added to our operation,” said Thomas Köberlein, president of Schreiner ProTech. They include watertight, breathable pressure compensation seals, airbag covers, inflatable curtain tapes and various high-end labels.
