TR Chai Yi Precision Fastenings Manufacturing, now part of the Trifast plc group of companies, is celebrating the launch of its Chinese manufacturing facility in Dongguan, within the Guangdong Province, capitalising on years of increasing demand in the region.
The new 2,800 sq. metres of manufacturing space houses 44 cold forging machines and 36 thread rolling machines producing 0.6mm to 4mm micro screws and thread forming screws, in steel, stainless and titanium, with an output of around one billion pieces per annum.
TR Chai Yi has achieved the globally recognised ISO 9001 certification demonstrating that TR has met the stringent criteria required for quality, safety and efficiency standards for its products and services to customers in the region. The accreditation affirms that the team is committed to providing the highest level of quality across the organisation and are continually looking at ways to improve.
Jeremy Scholefield, Asia Pacific Managing Director, said; “We’re delighted to open this new facility and in such a renowned area, it’s such a positive move for TR as a group. Our focus is on producing competitive products and continuing to build a strong capability in China and across the Asia Pacific region to meet market demands.
“Here in Guangdong, one of our key differentiators is our technical engineering knowledge to produce very precise and often complex components, those that are manufactured to exact measurements and mass-produced. This latest investment is key for us, as it highlights TR’s robust development in the region and our commitment to staying close to key customers here.”
The new China plant is the company’s seventh global manufacturing facility with factories now also in Italy, Singapore, Taiwan and Malaysia.
