Wolfgang van Hooff, Airtech Asia
After graduating as mechanical engineer majoring in energy production technology from IST UNI Luxembourg and Technical University of Dresden in Germany, I acquired over 37 years of expertise in general management, marketing & business development and engineering projects. I worked globally in over 34 countries in different Heavy Industry sectors. I have been living and working in the P.R. of China now for the last 20 years and have been setting up and developing companies in different industries. I was actively involved in implementing most advanced technologies and equipment for iron making, and zinc industry in China.
Since 2017, I am working with the Airtech Advanced Materials Group as General Manager for Airtech Asia located in Jingjin Technology Valley (JJTV), Wuqing District, Tianjin. Airtech is privately owned company founded in 1973 in California USA and is the largest supplier in vacuum bagging and composite tooling materials with strong global presence in the USA, China, Luxembourg, United Kingdom and India. For over 43 years Airtech supports the Chinese aviation industry as major contributor with innovative solutions.
Today Airtech Asia operates a modern 30 000m2 manufacturing plant and global product distribution facility. Most recently our focus has been on sustainability, recycling and advanced large scale additive manufacturing using our Dahltram 3D print resins. I am looking forward to a successful breakthrough with these innovative, environmentally friendly and advanced technologies in China now.
