Elemaster Shanghai: global standards, local agility

“We are where you are”. That’s Elemaster’s founding mantra and it explains why the group built a plant in Shanghai thirteen years ago: to follow its global clients into China, without lowering the bar. “The way we set up the Chinese site was to try to be, as much as possible, a replica, in terms of process and quality, of what we do in Italy and in the rest of the world,” says General Manager Sergio Bonacina. The same consumables, the same key machinery, the same ERP, PLM and MES systems as in Italy: nothing about the plant is a local adaptation.
