Carpeting Plant to Supply China-Built GM Vehicles

Auria Solutions says the Auria Solutions Shanghai JV is among the largest producers of vehicle flooring systems, acoustical components and fiber-based decorative trim components for the Chinese automotive market.

Auria Solutions Shanghai breaks ground on its newest location in Wuhan, China, a 242,190-sq.-ft. (22,500-sq.-m) plant that will produce automotive carpeting for Chevrolet and Buick models produced and sold in China.

Construction of the new facility will begin in early 2019, with series production scheduled to start by the end of the year. Once completed, the new plant will create about 100 new jobs in the region.

Auria Solutions Shanghai is a joint venture between global Tier 1 supplier Auria Solutions and Shanghai Car Carpet Plant Co. The company is among the largest producers of vehicle flooring systems, acoustical components and fiber-based decorative trim components for the Chinese automotive market, Auria Solutions says in a news release.

In addition to carpet manufacturing, the new facility will have in-house product and material testing and validation capability.

The Auria Solutions Shanghai JV comprises six automotive-components manufacturing locations in China, including Beijing, Changshu, Shanghai, Shenyang, Tianjin and Wuhan.
