GEEKVAPE builds smart manufacturing center in China.
GEEKVAPE establishes a smart manufacturing center in Guangdong, investing over £120m for high precision and performance.

Geekvape has announced the establishment of an intelligent manufacturing center in the National High-tech Industrial Development Zone in Zhuhai, Guangdong, elevating intelligent manufacturing to a new level. The project is set to last for two years, with a planned investment exceeding £120 million (approximately RMB 997 million).


According to reports, the Intelligent Manufacturing Center will utilize the latest high-tech equipment to provide top-notch precision and performance. With over 200 sets of automated equipment in assembly, packaging, testing, and laser engraving, the automation level in the assembly process is at 90%, enabling GEEKVAPE to achieve intelligent production.


Furthermore, GEEKBAR's comprehensive packaging technology and third-level QR code have introduced a higher level of traceability, effectively preventing counterfeit goods and illegal sales.


It is understood that the intelligent manufacturing center, once put into operation, will achieve a production process with almost 100% error-free results. Additionally, the collaboration between the intelligent manufacturing center and QISITECH, a group specializing in atomization technology, will result in a 99.8% yield of high-quality finished products.


Allen Yang, CEO of GEEKBAR, has stated that digitization and smart manufacturing will offer significant benefits, not only in terms of production volume and efficiency, but also in ensuring that GEEKBAR's products are consistently manufactured to high-quality standards that are safe for retailers and consumers in the UK and around the world.
