Ifco sets up production plant in China


Ifco Systems, a provider of reusable plastic containers (RPC) for fresh food, has opened a production facility in China, in cooperation with the Polytec Group. The company has been manufacturing reusable Steco 6421 containers for the Chinese market in its plant in Tianjin since April this year.

 

Steco 6421 is the most demanded model in China. Until now, RPCs were imported from Europe. The new manufacturing plant enables Ifco to respond more quickly to changes in demand in the local markets. Furthermore, it raises the production volume of RPCs and thus significantly reduces lead times for the relevant models.

 

Local manufacturing also improves Ifco’s ecological footprint, since it eliminates the need to transport the RPCs from Europe. Ifco can now respond more flexibly to changes in its customers’ requirements and provide them with optimal support in their efforts to deliver fresh food from growers to consumers as quickly as possible.
