On July 25, We celebrated the official opening of our largest European production base—J-Star Motion Hungary Kft.—in Kaposvár, Hungary. The ceremony was attended by H.E. Péter Szijjártó, Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, alongside local government officials, Mr. István Joó, CEO of the Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency, and JIECANG Group executives.
The new Kaposvár factory marks a key milestone in JIECANG's global expansion strategy. Following successful projects in the United States and Malaysia, Hungary becomes the company's third major overseas production site. With a total investment of approximately €60 million, the facility covers 97,000 m², including 23,000 m² of production and warehouse facilities in its first phase. It is expected to create 200 local jobs and serve as a key manufacturing and logistics hub for Europe.
"This investment reflects our long-term commitment to Europe and reinforces our 'local-for-local' strategy," said Renchang Hu, Chairman of JIECANG. He highlighted Hungary's geographic advantage, favorable business environment, mature industrial infrastructure, and its alignment with the Belt and Road Initiative as key drivers behind the decision.
Equipped with state-of-the-art automation, the facility features automated assembly lines for lifting columns, AGV-assisted metal processing module, high-efficiency powder coating systems and an intelligent warehouse with over 9,000 pallet capacity. This site will primarily produce lifting columns and standing desk frames for JIECANG and its subsidiary LOGICDATA, with an annual capacity of around 650,000 units, mainly supplying Germany, the Czech Republic, and surrounding European markets.
Looking ahead, JIECANG plans to accelerate construction of the facility's second phase and expand product lines in medical care, industrial automation, and automotive applications in Hungary, while continuing to strengthen local supply chain networks and talent development partnerships, aiming to become the leading supplier of linear actuators in Europe within three years.
With production sites across China, Malaysia, the United States, and now Hungary, JIECANG operates a global manufacturing footprint exceeding 600,000 m². The Kaposvár plant strengthens JIECANG's ability to deliver flexible, high-quality solutions to European clients more efficiently, while contributing to local economic growth.
More than just a production site, the J-Star Hungary project stands as a benchmark of Sino-Hungarian economic cooperation. We're committed to leveraging its global resources to create greater value for European customers while contributing to the sustainable growth of Hungary's economy.
