The Thai manufacturer for wood based panels placed the order directly with Siempelkamp Qingdao Machinery & Equipment Co Ltd, the second Chinese-based Siempelkamp location in the south of the Shandong province.
Vanachai, one of the leading wood based materials manufacturers in Thailand, will produce standard products for the furniture industry in a cost-efficient way with the line.
The company with roots reaching back to the 1940s had already ordered an MDF plant made by Siempelkamp in late 2016. Same as the MDF Plant, this newly ordered particleboard plant will also be set up in the southern Thai province of Surat Thani.
“This order is not only the second order that Vanachai has placed with Siempelkamp within one year, but it also represents the 12th line that the customer placed with the Siempelkamp Group since the 1980’s,” says Henning Gloede, managing director of Siempelkamp Pte Ltd Singapore.
The start of installation is scheduled for Q4, 2018.
