Rieter’s Changzhou plant to meet demands of further development

On December 9th, Rieter will host a ceremony to celebrate the start of construction of the second plant at Changzhou. This opens a new chapter of Rieter’s activities in China. More than 100 distinguished guests from local authorities, association leaders and customers will be invited to attend the groundbreaking ceremony.

Rieter will establish a new plant in Changzhou some four kilometers close to the existing one. The new plant construction aims to support the growing demand for textile machinery and provide Rieter Textile Systems with in-depth technology for Chinese customers, covering all major products: from blowroom to cards, drawframes and combers, as well as ring spinning machine and rotor spinning machines.

The new plant is planned to further expand facilities up to approx. 60 000 m2 within the next few years. The first phase, around 17 000 m2, will be constructed in 2011 and is expected to begin operation in the 4th quarter of 2011.

Latest technology will be adopted in the new construction, which will ensure the state-of-the-art production and quality for Rieter customers. In addition, extension of customer services is planned in the new area.
