I transferred 100% of our activity in our China plant, from our Singapore location. The plant headcount was composed of 60 employees and technicians. I initiated the outsourcing of plastic parts and brass components, in 2006, and developed the sourcing for plastic injection mold in relation with the central R&D dpt based in France.

Assembly of function fittings (pneumatic flow regulators) for the division. I initiated the sourcing for plastic injection mold, first in Singapore than in China.I was in charge on the Singapore plant and the China plant which was slowly gaining in activity and production volume until we transferred 100% of our assembly activity in China, in 2005.

As Technical Director i was in charge of sourcing products to complement our internal range of products. I also implemented the new packing for technical tubing, from carton boxes onto turrets. This new design contributed to the development of our sales in South East Asia, as it was more compact, hence reducing transport cost for our customers. This improvement is still active today in our chinese plant.
