SAF-Holland has acquired the landing leg (trailer support) product line from Austin-Westran.
The acquisition includes Austin-Westran's China-based production operation, significantly expanding SAF-Holland's presence in the world's third-largest market for commercial vehicles.
Austin-Westran manufactured landing legs at a site in Xiamen, China, which has an annual production capacity of around 150,000 pairs. SAF-Holland has purchased that manufacturing site and associated assets in the U.S. Austin-Westran will continue its other U.S.-based product lines.
Company officials note that combined with SAF-Holland's technology, the local knowledge and manufacturing base of the Austin-Westran unit will allow SAF-Holland to deliver ever larger volumes of truck and trailer components into the markets of Asia and beyond.
