The IFO Institut für Oberflächentechnik (Institute for Surface Engineering) in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany has expanded its site in Hangzhou, China and has opened a new 1,000m2 laboratory there. This is an important step for the affiliated companies IFO (laboratory centre of excellence and inspections) and QUBUS (engineering service provider for surface technology) from Schwäbisch Gmünd. The construction project was launched in 2019 and the site is now in operation so that customers from China and the Asian market also have access to a local service and a unique network of experts in surface engineering.
