Factory Visit in Ningbo - Part 2

First stop was Ningbo, a seaport in the northeast of Zhejiang province.

The capabilities of the 1st factory include high accuracy die casting tooling and manufacturing die casting products for industries such as electrical, lighting and automotive.

This factory has an excellent record selling 80% of their manufactured tooling to both overseas and domestic markets. Their business started with die cast products only, however due to the factories high quality of tooling manufacture and capabilities this area has expanded rapidly.

 We were very impressed with this factory, with an overall good first impression on quality of work and quality standards. Seeing the QA in action dispelled for me some of the myths regarding poor quality in China.
