ContiTech opens new plant for coated fabrics

The opening of ContiTech?s new facility for coated fabrics marks a special milestone in the company?s history in China. It is the first international production site for elastomer coatings outside Germany. 

With a total investment of more than 20 million Euros, the plant produces high-performance coated materials for a variety of applications. The product range includes robust concertina wall materials, which connect railway carriages together, or fabrics for protective equipment, dry diving suits or life rafts.

Furthermore, the plant sets benchmarks for an ecological and energy-friendly manufacturing. Based on cutting-edge facilities for waste air treatment, the site stays below Chinese emission limits more than ten times. Its thermal insulation systems also helps to save energy at a uniquely high level. Series production has been running since beginning of 2017 with an approximately 25-strong workforce that will be doubled over the next few months.
