Firestone Industrial Products recently expanded its global air spring presence with the addition of a new manufacturing facility in Tianjin, China. Manufactured at the facility are the company’s Airide air springs, specifically designed to meet a variety of heavy-duty vehicle suspension applications.

“This facility is the centerpiece of Firestone Industrial Products’ plan to meet the global needs of our heavy-duty customers worldwide,” said John Vincent, president of Firestone Industrial Products. “With the opening of the Tianjin facility, we have a sales and manufacturing presence in North and South America, Europe and Asia. We are committed to supporting the air spring needs of the Asia market, and this new facility better positions us to accomplish this goal.”
