BTU International’s Shanghai, China manufacturing plant has shipped its 3000th thermal processing unit since its opening in February of 2004. During the seven years the plant has been in operation, it has gone through several modifications and expansions, including a 2008 addition of a solar application lab. The plant earned ISO 9001:2008 certification for its observance of high quality standards in 2009.

“We are certainly proud of our China facility and the global teamwork that has enabled our success there. Being physically located in the region has allowed us to respond more quickly to our customers in China and the rest of Asia,” said Paul van der Wansem, chairman and CEO of BTU International. “We have a long-term commitment to the region and it is a key part of our plans for continued growth in the future.”
