The Holland Group, the Michigan-based supplier of vehicle coupling, lift and suspension system products to the heavy duty transportation industry, has agreed to license air suspension and landing gear technology to China.

Plans call for the manufacture of 10,000 front and rear air-suspension pieces for use within China and an undisclosed number of landing gear to be produced for China and other Pacific Rim countries.
The agreements with Zhenjiang Boahua Semi-Trailer for landing gear and the Beijing Corpco Technology Development Co. Ltd. for air suspension products, will allow the Chinese heavy duty transportation industry to adapt Holland products for heavy trucks, trailers, buses and motorcoaches.
Jeffrey Talaga, managing director of Holland China, will oversee the licensee agreements, which calls for stringent enforcement of Holland’s quality requirement guidelines. Beijing Corpco Technology Development, a well-established heavy duty transportation manufacturing entity in the country, will produce product from its manufacturing operations in Baotou Inner Mongolia. Zhenjiang Baohua Semi-Trailer Co., with operations dating back to 1995, has manufacturing and distribution facilities in Jiangsu province near Nanjing.
Holland’s products include fifth wheels, landing gear, air and mechanical suspensions, kingpins, pintle hooks, drawbars, couplers, lift gates and roll formed components.
