Site expansion in Qingdao
On 24 May 2024, item Industrietechnik GmbH opened its new production plant in Qingdao, China. Through this new factory, item aims to enhance its position in the Chinese and Asian Pacific markets. The focus is on supplying high-quality products and promoting industrial automation in China.
The new factory in Qingdao is a state-of-the-art production facility and a milestone in the international development of item. The company has had a sales site in the industrial city in eastern China since 2011. Now, by adding a production plant, the pioneer in building kit systems for industrial applications is continuing to grow its market presence in China and Asia and ensure it can give its customers the best possible support.
A sustainable plant in a modern industrial city
Thanks to its healthy investment environment and favourable transport links by land, water and air, Qingdao is an especially attractive location for business and industry. The new production site that item Industrietechnik GmbH has opened in this modern industrial city covers more than 1.65 hectares and employs around 60 members of staff, with headcount projected to grow. Sustainability and environmental friendliness were top priorities for item throughout the construction of the factory. For example, an ingenious heat pump system and an advanced climate-control system ensure that heat levels in the building can be dependably managed at all times of year, while also reducing energy consumption by 30 percent compared to conventional systems.
One principle, unlimited possibilities
The product portfolio of item Industrietechnik GmbH comprises more than 4,500 high-quality components designed for use in machine bases, work benches, automation solutions and lean production applications. These modular systems can now be supplied to customers direct from Qingdao. By opening its new production facility, item is paving the way for its global development. The company is extremely keen to work with more project partners in order to continuously develop the Building Kit System and harness the potential of the Asian market.
