[Malaysia] Emhart Glass Opens New Facility

Emhart Glass has announced the opening of its new factory in Taman Preindustrian Cemerlang, Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Replacing the firm's existing Malaysian plant with a bigger, more modern facility, the factory is fitted with state-of-the-art equipment throughout. Its main role will be the assembly of new IS machines and cross conveyors, plus the fabrication of welded parts. However, machine sections will still be produced at Emhart's facility in Sundsvall, Sweden, for assembly in Malaysia. The new facility includes a job shop and a warehouse, with space dedicated to training and demonstrations for both Hot End and Cold End products. It will also serve as a base for some of Emhart's service engineers in the Asia-Pacific region.
