New US Service Center: assonic USA opens sales and warehouse facilities in York, PA

assonic Dorstener Siebtechnik has opened its first branch in the US. The York, PA location includes a sales office managed by Simon Jones as well as warehousing capacity for spare parts such as screens. With the sale of the 6th machine to North America, the USA and Canada have become the largest market next to Germany. Assonic USA will focus on the additive manufacturing (3D printing) segment, a market with high growth potential. By opening the sales office in the heart of the USA, we hope to achieve a more attractive position in the US market and increase sales opportunities through better service and shorter delivery times. Simon Jones will continue to perform his current duties at WCJ without restriction. We wish him “Good Luck”.

Assonic am Standort Dorsten

Assonic moves to Dorsten

We are delighted that our subsidiary assonic has moved to our Dorsten site this month. For more than 10 years, assonic has grown continuously in Radevormwald. Now we are taking the next step towards the future together.
The new location on the Dorstener Drahtwerke site has over 300 square meters of office and hall space and offers all employees attractive and modern workplaces. By merging the Dorsten and Radevormwald sites, we expect to achieve great synergies, as screen production and mechanical engineering, for example, will now take place under one roof.
