"This is an exciting achievement for the Company as it marks the first ground-up launch of a Terex AWP factory," said Tim Ford, President, Terex AWP. "Our North American team members worked hand-in-hand with our new Changzhou team members to create a world-class manufacturing facility, of which we are exceptionally proud."

Already manufacturing the new Genie® S™-3200 and S™-3800 telescopic booms for the shipbuilding market, and the S™-100, S™-105, S™-120, and S™-125 Super Booms, Terex AWP plans to incorporate four more product lines specifically for the Asian market.

"We need to provide superior products, designed and produced locally, to meet local demand and specifications," said XS Koo, Vice President and Managing Director, Asia Pacific, Terex AWP. "Manufacturing in China shortens lead times and frees up capacity in other locations, making it more effective and efficient process. This is particularly important for China as it becomes a major player in the aerial work platform category. It's a market in the making."

Terex AWP established a sales and distribution office in China 12 years ago for its Genie® products, and since has become known for providing quality products and outstanding customer support. Aerial work platforms have gained popularity in many industries in Asia, including shipyards, airports, hotels and factories.

Terex Corporation is a diversified global manufacturer operating in four business segments: Terex Aerial Work Platforms, Terex Construction, Terex Cranes, and Terex Materials Processing. Terex manufactures a broad range of equipment for use in various industries, including the construction, infrastructure, quarrying, mining, shipping, transportation, energy, refining and utility industries.
