BEUMER Group inaugurates new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in China

BEUMER Group has officially opened a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Taicang/China, marking a major expansion of the company’s presence in China. The grand opening ceremony on 10 December 2025, held in Taicang, coincided with BEUMER China’s 20^th anniversary and the BEUMER Group’s 90^th anniversary globally. This new high-tech plant is set to significantly enhance BEUMER’s global production capabilities and underscores the family-owned company’s long-term commitment to the Chinese market.

The new Taicang facility occupies a land area of about 33 350 m², with a built-up manufacturing space of roughly 23 000 m² across two large-scale workshops and additional auxiliary facilities. Construction was completed in an exceptionally swift timeframe of just 12 months. The new site is now fully integrated into BEUMER’s global manufacturing network, allowing the company to serve customers across Asia-Pacific and worldwide more efficiently from China. As part of establishing this new base, BEUMER Group also set up two new Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprises (WOFE) in Taicang, to anchor its expanded operations, reflecting a deepening of local operational roots.

Established in 2005, BEUMER’s presence in China began with delivering a single product line. Over the past two decades, the company’s footprint in China has expanded steadily into a comprehensive organization that delivers a full portfolio of solutions across multiple industries, including airport baggage handling systems, logistics systems and overland conveyor systems, as well as equipment for the cement, minerals, and mining sectors. BEUMER China has grown in both scale and capabilities – from a modest start to a workforce of around four hundred today – reflecting the sustained success of BEUMER’s solutions in the Chinese market. This journey illustrates BEUMER’s long-term commitment to China, developing local expertise and infrastructure to support its customers.

The new Taicang facility is designed as a modern, digital manufacturing base that aligns with BEUMER’s global standards for innovation and sustainability. Outfitted with cutting-edge production technology and smart factory principles, the plant will help increase efficiency and ensure high quality across all products manufactured on site. BEUMER Group built the facility with an eye toward sustainability and future readiness, aiming to minimize environmental impact in its operations. By building a modern, eco-conscious production hub in China, BEUMER is aligning with both national and global sustainability goals and ensuring the facility is well-prepared for future industry developments and expansions. The company’s approach in China – as in other markets – is to build enduring relationships: with customers who can count on world-class products and services, with employees who benefit from growth and development opportunities, and with local communities and authorities who find in BEUMER a committed, responsible corporate citizen. Rudolf Hausladen noted that the foundation built over the past twenty years in China has been critical to the company’s success: “Our journey in China has always been about building trust and delivering excellence. This new facility is not just an investment in production capacity; it’s an investment in the next decades of partnership with our customers and in the development of our BEUMER footprint in China.”
