In order to fulfil the contracted and anticipated market demand, Gurit invests in two PET-extruders, in addition to the three existing ones in Italy and China. The first new extruder is scheduled to be commissioned in 2020 at the existing extrusion site in Tianjin, China. The second extruder is also expected to become operational in 2020 at the new Matamoros site in Mexico, where Gurit opened up a kitting services facility earlier this year. This is a stepping stone for Gurit’s new co-location strategy, the company said in a press release.
“These contracts are a confirmation for our strategic focus on the Wind turbine market. We are excited about these growth perspectives and our teams are fully committed to harvest the new opportunities,” Rudolf Hadorn, CEO of Gurit said. (GK)
