May 19, 2006

Stockholm, Sweden, May 19, 2006: Atlas Copco has today inaugurated a new compressor manufacturing plant in Liuzhou in Southern China. The production unit will produce oil-injected screw compressors and portable compressors, mainly of the Liutech brand for the Asian market.

The new facility, which is part of the Compressor Technique business area, will organize production in a more efficient and modern way in order to address a need for increased capacity.
