New production facility in China for Freudenberg

14/09/2016
German textile group Freudenberg has opened a new production facility in Suzhou, China dedicated to producing high-quality car roof linings.

The company, which says it is the only one in China with an in-house automotive printing facility, expects the production line to satisfy the demand in Asia for quality printed products. 

“The expansion of our activities in China underlines our expertise in automotive headliners,” said Bruce Olson, president and CEO of Freudenberg Performance Materials. “This move will also further underscore our position as a leading and reliable partner for our customers.”

Freudenberg’s headliners use nonwoven fabrics and can be finished in a variety of ways. They offer abrasion resistance, acoustic properties and improved stain resistance. The company also uses a proportion of recycled materials in its products.
