Specialty Sheet Line Up and Running in China
Macro is pleased to announce the successful installation and start-up of a new highly specialized sheet production plant in China. The $35 million production facility was designed to the customer’s specifications and was delivered on time and on budget.
The project began in 2005 with a significant amount of custom engineering and component integration, followed by an interim installation near Macro's headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario for testing and development purposes. "This has been a very exciting project for Macro", said Macro's president, Mirek Planeta. "We have plenty of experience with custom built extrusion lines from previous projects, but none were at the scale of this line. The challenge of overseeing such a large installation was a major undertaking, and successfully executing it at the other side of the world has been very rewarding".
