Epcos expands product portfolio in China JV

Germany-based Epcos AG has expanded its joint venture with Chinese capacitor manufacturer Xiamen Xindeco Co.

The move helps Epcos (Xiamen) Co. widen its product spectrum, which presently offers only relatively large capacitors with bolt connections. The expansion will also enable it to include small electrolytic capacitors for use in small devices into its portfolio. A company spokesperson noted that Epcos (Xiamen) serves the China market almost exclusively.

The move is subject to approval by Xindeco shareholders and local authorities.
