Maxwell Technologies has opened a sales office in Shanghai, China, to market its BOOSTCAP ultracapacitors, service customers and support its distribution partners in Asia. The office is located at the Swiss Center in Xinzhuang Industrial Park. It is staffed by sales and applications specialists and support personnel, all of whom are fluent in both Chinese and English.
Maxwell senior vice president Alain Riedo said, "We see virtually unlimited opportunities for our BOOSTCAP products in the Asian transportation, industrial and consumer electronics markets, and Shanghai's central location makes it ideal for servicing the rapidly growing Chinese market and the entire South Eastern Asia region."
