The United Grinding Group has been present in the Southeast Asian region for many years through representatives and its Walter Ewag Asia Pacific subsidiary. Now the specialist for grinding, eroding, laser, and measuring machines is founding a group subsidiary in Singapore — United Grinding Asia Pacific Pte Ltd.

Stephan Nell, United Griding Group CEO, said: “Southeast Asia is strategically a very crucial region for us. Establishing a United Grinding subsidiary is the logical step to intensify our activities in this region. Proximity to our customers has always been important to us to ensure fast and uncomplicated support.”

Michael Schmid, United Grinding Asia Pacific Pte Ltd CEO, who has been responsible for the business in Southeast Asia for the Walter and Ewag brands for more than 20 years, added: “We can bundle the strength of our powerful team in the joint group subsidiary and serve our customers even better. In the future, we will offer all three group technologies, surface and profile grinding, cylindrical grinding, and tool machining, under one roof. I am convinced that bundling and intensifying our activities in this region is a win-win for all parties involved.”
