Emerson opens new technical center, creating first fully integrated process control instrumentation facility in China
New center advances availability of world-class automation technologies and practices for high infrastructure growth in China and Asia Pacific regions
Singapore (June 26, 2008) – Emerson Process Management has opened a new process instrumentation technical center in Bao’an China as an expansion to meet increasing demand for world-class automation technology to support the region’s rapidly growing infrastructure. The new technical center adds to Emerson’s existing manufacturing facility to create the first fully integrated process control instrumentation facility in China.
The world-class ISO 9001:2000 certified manufacturing facility was established in 1994 in Bao’an, Shenzhen province. The new Bao’an Technical Center will undertake expanded high-technology capabilities, from research, evaluation, product design and development, and testing of process instrumentation. The new technical center will be set on par with other engineering centers of excellence in the United States and in Singapore. It is equipped to serve Emerson’s growing China market and to meet increasing customer needs.
With the doubling of floor space from a 2,350 sqm facility in Chuang Ye 2nd Road to 5,200 sqm area, expansion to a newer, better and larger facility marks an important milestone in Emerson’s growth strategy. It is a strong demonstration of Emerson’s continuing investment in advanced state-of-the-art capabilities as part of its expanded presence in world markets and the Asia Pacific region.
The new center is also a testament to Emerson’s strong confidence in Bao’an as a key manufacturing plant for Emerson’s instrumentation products. These products are manufactured and supplied to Emerson factories worldwide and are used in various process control industries including chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas, refining, hydrocarbon, power, nuclear, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals.
