850 m² of production space, some 250 m² are also available for use

Roth Industries also wants to use the company in Taicang as a
contact point for other business fields within the Group. For
instance, the business activities for other lines of products can be
channeled through the office in China and streamlined.
Experts in hydraulic accumulators
BSD has manufactured hydraulic accumulators for all manner of
different applications at its Biedenkopf-Eckelshausen site for over
60 years. BSD has won customers all around the world with its comprehensive
range of products. Fuchs explained the company’s global
focus: “Across the globe, we are seeing a trend towards environmentally
sustainable processes that preserve resources. Our products
are supporting this trend, ensuring that many facilities can
operate safely and save energy – from large plant for heavy industry
and the energy sector right down to mobile accumulators.”
This was also confirmed in April 2015 at the Hannover Messe
trade fair, in which BSD regularly participates as part of the special
“Drive Technology” exhibition every two years. “Customers are
coming in from more and more countries. And we’re proud of the
fact that ours include some well-known manufacturers. Many have
been relying on our outstanding product quality and our services
for decades – and we want to expand this position on the global
market”, emphasized Kämmer.
Traditional ceremony
The opening ceremony for BSD Hydraulic Technology Taicang was attended
by many invited guests, including the city’s mayor, delegates
from the business development organisation, customers and suppliers
as well as representatives of other local firms. Dr. Anne-Kathrin
Roth passed on the congratulations of the owner family. In keeping
with tradition, a red ribbon was then cut to mark the formal opening.
Equally traditional was the Chinese fireworks display that proved the
highlight of the celebrations.
