Atlas Copco Launches New Compressor Manufacturing Base
Atlas Copco held the official commissioning ceremony for its new manufacturing base
on April 23. Marking a landmark strategic upgrade of the group's localized production
and R&D layout in China, the newly completed facility will become Atlas Copco's largest
R&D and manufacturing hub for power business outside its Belgian global headquarters.
Commencing construction in June 2025, the project completed construction and reached
production capacity within less than one year, demonstrating highly efficient engineering
and construction execution. Upon full operation, the base will achieve an annual
incremental capacity of 10,020 industrial air compressors, 5,000 generator units and 150
energy storage system units. The new production line focuses on high-efficiency, energy
saving industrial compressors, integrated power equipment and new energy supporting
compression solutions, covering full-scenario demands of general industry, intelligent
manufacturing and green energy sectors.

Equipped with fully automated intelligent production lines, precision assembly systems
and complete quality inspection laboratories, the new base integrates whole-process R&D,
mass production, after-sales service, component supply chain operation. By optimizing
localized supply chain system, Atlas Copco will effectively shorten product delivery cycles,
enhance customized technical support capacity for Chinese downstream manufacturers,
and provide more reliable low-carbon, high-efficiency compression equipment for
domestic industrial upgrading.
Against the global industrial low-carbon transformation and energy-saving development
trend, the expanded compressor production capacity further empowers domestic
manufacturing energy conservation and emission reduction. The completion of Wuxi new
base also accelerates the group's industrial chain integration of compressor equipment,
power machinery and energy storage business. Moving forward, Atlas Copco will continue
to deepen technological innovation in high-efficiency compression field, strengthen
localized operation in the Chinese market, and deliver comprehensive green intelligent
compressed air solutions to global industrial customers.
