MAXAM Debuts In The Chinese Market
Shandong, Oct 17, 2012 AEST (ABN Newswire) - MAXAM will be exhibiting at the 14th China Mining Conference and Exhibition 2012 (stand 3122 and 3123).
This leading international company's strengths lie in its full line of explosives products and services, its strong global logistics network, state-of-the-art manufacturing and distribution facilities, all of which is backed by continuous R&D innovations.
MAXAM, a global leading company within the civil explosives industry, will begin operating in the Chinese market next year with the inauguration of its new site in Lao Qiuyu (Shandong Province).
At Shandong, MAXAM will manufacture and commercialize civil explosives and initiation systems for China's mining, quarrying and infrastructure construction sectors.
The project, with an investment of 70 MEUR, is a joint venture that involves two local partners and the support of the Chinese authorities at a state, provincial, regional and municipal level.
With its entrance in China, MAXAM consolidates its presence in Asia where, throughout numerous years, it has already held a strong position in the neighboring states of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Mongolia.
MAXAM's growth strategy is based upon:
- A global approach and experience that will provide its Shandong facility with the technologies it requires, making China a key market for MAXAM operations in Asia and the Pacific region.
- State-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, managed under MAXAM corporate policies (safety, quality, environment, technology, security ), ensuring the excellence not only of MAXAM's products, but of the company at large.
- Technological independence achieved thanks to continuous R&D; the products manufactured at Shandong have been developed internally by MAXAM.
