Cevotec Expands Commercial Operations in China Cevotec has made a new move to implement Fiber Patch Placement (FPP) technology in the Chinese market, entering into cooperation with two new international sales partners. HACO (Hesse, André & Co. GmbH & Co. KG), a Beijing-based company, focuses on customers in the aviation and space sectors. Shanghai-based ChunHua Automotive Technology Co., Ltd brings FPP technology to its customer base in intelligent manufacturing and e-mobility sectors. Both companies have achieved notable success in bringing high-tech machinery and automation from Europe to China's manufacturing industry. Thorsten Groene, CEO and Founding Partner of Cevotec, stated: "We are excited to announce these partnerships in the Chinese market, where we see great potential for FPP in the future. China is already a global manufacturing hub and will continue to progressively upgrade its industrial base. In particular, automation technology can accelerate the growth of the local composites industry, as it maintains quality even in large volumes." Both companies bring an established customer base, experience and deep market knowledge to the partnership. HACO distributes machine tools, services and spare parts to its customers in the aviation, space and aircraft engine industries and represents Cevotec's Chinese partner GFM. With a history dating back to 1777, HACO has offices in Beijing, Seoul and numerous other regions. The company's main business activities are the marketing and sale of molding machines for the aviation industry in China and packaging machines for the pharmaceutical industry in Korea. Founded in 2003, ChunHua transformed from an automotive model building company into a full-service technology company providing engineering services throughout the entire design, development and prototyping process. With more than 100 employees, the company also provides high-tech foreign machinery and technical consulting to its customers in the automotive, aviation, space and industrial sectors. Thorsten Groene added: "Working with HACO and ChunHua, we are partnering with two best-in-class partners serving complementary markets and regions in China. Both companies aim to successfully bring FPP to the forefront of China's composites industry by combining their necessary expertise, experience and market knowledge. We look forward to a successful partnership!"
