Suzhou/Kunshan. Hengst Filtration has taken a further step in its transformation from automotive supplier to filtration specialist in many areas. The Münster-based company has signed an agreement to acquire the Chinese air filtration specialist CSC Tech, making it a full-service provider for the semiconductor industry.
Semiconductors are the backbone of digitalization and artificial intelligence. And following our investment in artemis control AG, CSC Tech is another piece of the puzzle for us as a partner in this industry.
Christopher Heine
CEO Hengst Filtration
CSC Tech manufactures fan filter units (filter-fan units) as well as HEPA and ULPA filters for the clean room production of Chinese and Taiwanese microchip manufacturers and electronics production. This ideally complements Hengst's expertise in the field of particle and harmful gas filtration as well as trace gas filtration at artemis control AG. In future, the Hengst Group will therefore offer a full range of products for cleanroom and semiconductor production.
Like Hengst China, CSC Tech is based in the Yangtze River Delta (Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui): Administration and sales are in Suzhou, a city with a population of 13 million, while production is located in Kunshan, which is part of Suzhou. Hengst also has its two Chinese locations in Kunshan and further north in Jinan (Shandong province).
