Gericke, Regensdorf, Switzerland, has recently appointed new agents in South Korea and Pakistan as well as establishing a new location for its Thailand operation. Since setting up of Gericke Pte Ltd in Singapore in 1993, the company has successfully expanded its presence in the Asian-Pacific market. The philosophy to combine European-based manufacturing of key components such as mixers and feeders with local engineering know-how and sourcing has proved to be the right fit to support multinational as well as local customers with high-quality materials handling and processing systems. Today the Singapore office acts as regional engineering and service competence centre, while overseeing the area through a network of subsidiaries and agents.

 

Continuing this approach, JW Microtec in South Korea and Imtec in Lahore (Pakistan) will represent Gericke in their respective home markets. They both bring many years of experience in a variety of industries to ensure professional local support. Additionally a new location for Gericke in Thailand reflects the increased significance of this market for the Switzerland-based manufacturer. In addition to Thailand this office also covers Myanmar.

 

The market activities in Asia are supported by a state-of-the-art test centre in Singapore. This allows for customer tests under near-production conditions. Experienced specialists are able to design the test layout and perform the tests for various types of powder handling and processing applications. www.gericke.net
