UPM Raflatac opens a slitting and distribution terminal in China

In order to deliver on the company’s customer promise to provide high-quality products and best-in-class service, UPM Raflatac has opened a new self-adhesive label stock slitting and distribution terminal in Chengdu, China. The terminal will supply both film and paper label materials to customers in the Southwest China region.

The new Chengdu terminal is part of UPM Raflatac’s expansion program in Asia Pacific which targets to increase production capacity and expand the service network in the market.

“The new terminal brings us closer to our customers in the southwest part of China, thus allowing us to offer a wide range of products with shorter lead times. It also strengthens our commitment to provide excellent customer service and technical support to the customers in the region”, says Jari Haavisto, Vice President for UPM Raflatac Greater China.

In addition to the new slitting and distribution terminal in Chengdu, UPM Raflatac’s production and sales network in China consists of a self-adhesive label stock factory in Changshu as well as terminals in Guangzhou and Tianjin and sales offices in Beijing and Shanghai.
