EVG establishes China subsidiary in Shanghai

EV Group (EVG) of St Florian, Austria, a supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for MEMS (microelectromechanical systems), nanotechnology and semiconductor applications, has opened the new subsidiary EV Group China Ltd in Shanghai, which will serve as regional headquarters for all of EVG’s operations in the People’s Republic of China. Housing a local service center and spare parts management facility, the subsidiary will strengthen EVG’s presence in the region and support the firm’s ongoing efforts to improve service and response times to local customers.

EVG says that, as China continues to increase its technology development efforts to become a leading manufacturing region for the semiconductor, compound semiconductor, power device, advanced packaging, light-emitting diode (LED) and MEMS industries, it has expanded its operations in order to be more effective and efficient in meeting the needs of its growing customer base in the region. EV Group China is an integral part of the firm’s worldwide customer support network, serving as the first point of contact for all service and customer support issues.

“The significant growth in business that we’ve seen in China, coupled with the continued huge market potential in this region, makes establishing a new subsidiary in China an effective way to continue to build upon our presence here and strengthen support for our local customers and partners,” says executive sales & customer support director Hermann Waltl.

EVG has had an active presence in China for more than a decade. Success in the region has allowed order intake from Chinese customers to multiply over the past several years. EVG has now established five wholly owned subsidiaries across the globe.

EVG’s high-volume manufacturing solutions for the semiconductor, compound semiconductor, power device, advanced packaging, LED and MEMS industries are on display in booth #2451 at the SEMICON China trade show in Shanghai (18-20 March).
