1,000 injection moulding machines in 5-10 years

One of the world’s largest producers of plastic injection moulding machines, Haitian International Holdings has opened the construction of one of its manufacturing site in the Americas, following its global long-term strategy to manufacture and assemble locally.

The new Mexican plant with an area of 92,000 sqm is located in Centro Logistico Jalisco, an industrial park located in Acatlan de Juarez, a Guadalajara metropolitan area municipality. It was chosen because it offers fast access to the booming industrial zones in Central Mexico, as well as efficient transport means to the rest of the country, while also being close to the Manzanillo seaport.

On May 28, the official groundbreaking ceremony took place with the attendance of over 180 guests, among them local government officials, Haitian Mexico staff, local customers and specialized media. Haitian Group’s global authorities joined the event, including Zhang Jianming, President of Haitian International, Zhang Jianfeng, President of Haitian Plastics Machinery Group, and Chen Weiqun, Vice President of Haitian Plastics Machinery Group.

Zhang Jianming opened the ceremony with a welcome speech and emphasized that “with this new plant, we aim to improve our local production capacity, shorten delivery times and better address the technical issues for our local customers, so as to be better prepared for our further exploration of the local market. We are excited to grow further hand in hand with our customers, partners and employees”.

The first phase of this site will see a 27,000 square meter plant and a four-story office building in a land of nine hectares. It aims to manufacture 1000 plastic injection machines each year, expecting to reach this objective within a period of five to ten years. The plant will mainly satisfy the domestic market demands but could also serve as an export platform.
