Expanding Asia Manufacturing: A sustainable, end-to-end plastic injection moulding network ready for Vietnam

As global brands continue to diversify their supply chains, Asia remains a strategic location for plastic injection molding, contract manufacturing, and sustainable production solutions.

With established operations in China, India, and Malaysia, our Asia network is built to deliver scale, reliability, and technical excellence across major markets including business machines, medical solutions, packaging, consumer appliances and automotive.

Today, we are expanding this integrated Asian footprint and inviting customers looking to grow in Vietnam, a fast-rising manufacturing hub to partner with us in shaping a new state-of-the-art facility.

China: Our high-capacity manufacturing hub in Suzhou

Located in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, our China facility is one of the largest and most advanced injection moulding and contract manufacturing sites in the region.

  • 800 employees
  • Full-service plastic injection moulding, assembly, testing, and turnkey contract manufacturing
  • Markets: business machines, medical solutions, packaging, consumer appliances, professional appliances, home automation, automotive

With its strong engineering backbone, China serves as the cornerstone of our Asian capability, supporting high-volume, high-complexity programmes with consistent quality and sustainability controls.

India: A fast-growing manufacturing base in Chennai

Our India plant is strategically positioned within the modern ESR Industrial Park in Chennai, a 200-acre hub home to major multinational manufacturers.

Malaysia strengthens our ability to deliver turnkey manufacturing solutions, particularly for products requiring advanced assembly or stringent quality controls.

Vietnam: The next step in sustainable, high-growth manufacturing

As Southeast Asia’s manufacturing landscape rapidly evolves, Vietnam has become a preferred destination for companies seeking:

  • Supply chain diversification
  • Competitive manufacturing costs
  • Skilled labour
  • Strong export pathways to the U.S., EU, and APAC markets
  • Government-supported investment opportunities in high-tech and sustainable production

We are actively exploring customer partnerships to establish our next facility in Vietnam. By bringing customers into the planning phase, we ensure that the new plant is fully aligned with their volume needs, product complexity, automation requirements, and long-term sustainability goals.

Building sustainably across Asia

Sustainability is embedded across our Asian manufacturing ecosystem. Each plant leverages:

  • Energy-efficient injection moulding machinery
  • Waste-minimisation and closed-loop material management
  • Automation and process optimisation to reduce energy consumption
  • Support for bio-resins and recycled plastics (PCR/ PIR) where product requirements allow
  • Certifications aligned with global environmental and quality standards (ISO, IATF, medical standards depending on location)

Our goal is to help customers transition toward lower-emission, circular, and responsibly produced plastic components, without compromising performance or cost efficiency.

Why partner with us?

With strong manufacturing foundations in China, India, and Malaysia, we offer customers:

  • Proven operational excellence
  • Scalable capacity
  • A pan-Asia supply chain
  • Deep technical expertise
  • A commitment to sustainable production

A new Vietnam manufacturing plant will further strengthen our footprint in the region, offering multi-country redundancy, competitive cost structures, and rapid market access.

Companies looking to expand in Asia or diversify their supply chain into Vietnam can partner with us to co-develop a world-class, sustainable production facility tailored to their needs.
