Tesa, an international manufacturer of adhesive tapes and self-adhesive solutions, has opened its new site in the Vietnamese port city of Haiphong. The new site is part of tesa’s strategic orientation to regionalize production. Tesa states the new site is approximately 70,000 meters and has a production capacity of 40 million square meters of adhesive tape per year and, in its first phase, will employ about 130 employees, complementing the existing production site in Suzhou, China, which opened in 2005.
“The investment of approximately 55 million Euro in our new site in Haiphong is an important milestone in our strategy to regionalize production and optimize our supply chains,” said Norman Goldberg, CEO of tesa.
The company currently operates 13 production sites worldwide, including plants in Germany (Hamburg, Offenburg), Italy, the United States and China.
