This is to provide the Asian customers with local support and to underline the importance of the Chinese market. Sales Manager Mario Franke, Sales Assistant Helen Yang and Service Engineer George Wang will manage all the local sales and service activities. Recently mainly large moulds with up to 144 cavities have been ordered for well-known brands for PET preform high speed machines in China. Because of the current situation and in parallel the over-capacity in the market, there is a slow down for new PET lines cur- rently in China. MHT is sure that the market will stabilise and grow further on a mid-term view. MHT has been selling preform moulds from Germany to China since 1999. Today about 100 MHT moulds are running in the country. www.mht-ag.com SPONSORS The China Road Show
