East Meets (& Builds) West
- East met West when Chinese Jiangsu Jifco Holdings went equipment shopping for a new truss and wall panel manufacturing facility in the U.S.
- Even though there were no skilled sawyers, operators, assemblers, or truss technicians available in China, Jay Halteman (Wood Truss Systems) was amazed at the Chinese’s capability and devotion to the project.
- For the new plant in China, Halteman chose what he believed to be the most reliable automated equipment that was also the easiest to operate and had extreme durability.
