MPS closed its manufacturing facility in Suzhou
In August 2014 MPS has closed its manufacturing facility in Suzhou, China due to several reasons, especially also because of the increased production costs for quality products. The branch in China is newly operated solely as a sales and service center. All MPS machines are now manufactured in Switzerland. We are proud to explain that by use of most modern production techniques, it is possible to keep all prices of machines previously produced in China! Consider: Swiss quality machines to nearly the same prices as before! Like that it is possible that MPS can continue to offer their complete product line, from high-end machines to lowest price machine. Of course, the MPS own Online-Printers as well as the automatic loading systems remain still in the product range.
