One of the highlights of our trip to TEDA was a factory tour at Gorbel, a Rochester company that, with SBDC assistance, opened a facility in TEDA in 2006. The company, which makes workstation bridge cranes, or ergonomic lifting solutions, as you can see in the picture on the left and below, shares its tech park neighborhood with Motorola, Volkswagen, and the most successful noodle manufacturer in China. Good company, indeed!
The staff at Gorbel welcomed us warmly, with cans of American soda and bottled water on the meeting room table. After a brief conversation, we donned safety glasses and walked through the facility. It was fairly quiet the day we were there, but as you can see from the pictures we walked through most of the open factory space.
I got the following from the Gorbel website:
Gorbel Tianjin currently manufactures enclosed track workstation cranes, jib cranes, and gantry cranes to serve the China and Asia market. These products carry the same 5 year warranty that is offered on products in the USA. Gorbel® products are manufactured at state-of-the-art facilities in New York and Alabama and sold through an extensive dealer network.
